i think this one was my very first online dating experience date, so this was a few years back (don't remind me how long or many times I have tried this, but know that you don't have memberships forever - you have to pay for "subscriptions or memberships by the months).
this guy, worked for BoA uptown, he was good a bit older than me, but seemed realy nice, so we talked on the phone for a while and then planned to meet up. we made plans to meet in a huge shopping center parking lot, because i don't ever let these guys know wehre i live at first, and our plan was to go to Miro (in Ballantyne) and then possibly ice skating. you see, i had just had knee surgery and had just finished PT and recovering from it, which i told him, but apparently he still thought this would be a good idea. generally or if the above had not happened, i would have been 100% on board.
so, we meet up, go to dinner. dinner was fine, but it is truly unnecessary to spend over 100 on dinner. i was still pretty new to professional working scene, so this just seemed like too much for a first date. i still feel like money could be used elsewhere, but i have a shopping addiction, so no judgment here, ha. after dinner, we headed to the ice skating rink. it should be noted that i had had pretty serious knee surgery about 4 months prior, so i had had PT for months and had just been released, which he knew. i am actually pretty good at skating (ice and roller), but when he tried to couple's skate with me on ice, i nearly slapped him. i thought, if you make me fall and i have to go back to PT, we will have major issues. we quickly ended the iceland adventure, so we headed to get coffee... he talked and talked, and i did not. i thought the marathon date would never end. i am pretty sure he said at some point at coffee, he was ready to get ready, STAT. i was terrified, and needless to say, we didn't go back out... but he is so normal in comparison:)
