Saturday night was our third date. I decided to get all cute. I’m talking dress, heels, lipstick… the works. I showed up to his place for dinner about 6:30. We were going to this nice sushi place downtown. I walked in and his eyes lit up. He grabbed my hand and spun me around in a circle and told me how beautiful I was. COME ON! No one does that! Pinch me. This man made me feel like the most beautiful girl in the world.

When we sat down to dinner we happened to get a table right next to some people that he knew. I feel this guy just knew everyone. He was a gentleman and introduced me to anyone we came across that knew him. We had a great dinner full of constant conversation and laughs. And not to mention the most amazing sushi. After dinner we decided to run by the liquor store to get stuff to make margaritas. He claimed that he could make the best margarita. I feel like all men say they are “the best” at something. Right? While we were at the liquor store he was just talking me up to the cashier. I found it quite hilarious and adorable at the same time. He had no problem showing me off.

Anyways, we went back to his house and turned on some music while he made us drinks. This old school (and by old school I mean 2000s) hip hop song came on: R.Kelly – Ignition — we both bust out singing the moment we heard it. He grabbed me, spun me around and started dancing with me in the kitchen. It was seriously probably one of the best nights. We had so many laughs together and were all smiles.

The next morning he sat me down in this giant bean bag chair in the living room and told me that I had to watch this show called Sherlock. He made me coffee and breakfast while we watched this show together. I was impressed. No man has ever done this for me. After breakfast he looked at me and said, “Do you want to make this a regular thing? You and me?” Obviously I was jumping for joy inside because no one has ever made me feel this special and cherished. That being said, we set  another date for Tuesday to go to this orchestra/singer event.

Tuesday night rolled around and we went to this event together. There was a cocktail party beforehand. I got to meet all his friends from the gym and work. The girls really liked me. 🙂 That always makes me happy when a man’s girlfriends get along with me. We were all smiles all night. He would let me run off with the girls and then whenever I came back he would hold my hand and give me a kiss. The actual performance was amazing. I can’t recall the name of the woman who sings with this orchestra, but she’s hilarious and is a great entertainer.

We went back to his house after the performance. He started to make us a drink when the curveball came flying. He started out by saying how much he has enjoyed the evening and our time together recently. Then he continued to say that he isn’t looking to date anyone at the moment. HOLD UP. You were the one that asked me if I wanted to make you and I a ‘regular thing’. Not me. I didn’t even mention the word boyfriend or anything like that. This is what I don’t understand. Men LOVE the idea of having a girl to do all these things with, but when it comes down to it, they just want to know at the end of the day that they aren’t tied to one girl. And, to make things worse, he continued to say how amazing I am, beautiful, funny, smart, hard working… blah blah blah BUT he just doesn’t want anything. SHOOT ME.

I said my peace with him and let him know that he completely led me on. He knows he did. Men aren’t oblivious to the fact that they are 100% misleading you. They just don’t care. I left his house and never turned back.

NEXT!
