The first post. Always fun. So how to start it off? I could think of many ways. I could blog about current events in the world. I could rant and rave. I could tell you all about my lovely self. But for the first one...lets try a mix of sorts.
You see, my dating history is...interesting. I seem to attract the creatons of society, jerks, weirdos...you get the picture. But in the past few months, I've had this scenario happen multiple times. Here is how it went tonight:
Guy: Will you date me?
Me: I'm sorry, but no. I don't want to date anyone right now.
Guy: But please, if we hang out, I know you'll really like me.
Me: I'm sorry, the answer is still no. But its not you. I really don't want to date anyone. I'm focusing on education/work/family/God/and what I want right now.
Guy: You're a liar. Its me. You don't want to date me because I have a clubbed foot so I'm disabled (the other reasons were, ugly and stupid for the others)
Me: Well, if you knew me enough to like me and ask me out, you would know that I rarely, if ever, lie. So the answer is no. Believe what you want.
Guy: If you say so. I'm just going to be alone. No one will ever love me. I'm going to die alone since you won't date me. And it will be your fault.
Me: Are you saying you're going to kill yourself
Guy: Yes. And it will be your fault (this guy claims to be a devout Christian who goes to church and its functions at least 4 times a week mind you).
Me: Um No. Try explaining that rationale to God after you've committed one of the major no nos and you're on your way to Hell.
Guy: Well I'm not going to hold you back or cause drama. You will date me.
Me: No, I won't. You've already caused drama. I'm not going to date you. Persisting will not help.
Guy: But why not?
Me: Because apparently you have the IQ of a rock and you don't know the meaning of no.
And that was the end of that.
So, I have made a list of rules for asking me out.
-If I tell you a reason, I'm being honest. If you happen to call me a liar or make the statement a bit more colorful, well, you've just made a big mistake. I rarely, if ever, lie. In fact I'm normally brutally honest. That shows you have no trust. Therefore, I won't date you.
-If you ask my priorities and my dreams, don't belittle them. If you tell me that I'm stupid for wanting what I want or that girls don't have a place doing what I want, you'll only serve to make me mad. You're not supportive. I'm not going to date you.
-If you try to guilt me into dating you, I won't. I don't like manipulation. Further more, if you try to tell me that if I don't date you, you will kill yourself, not only will I be angry, but I'll tell you to do it. If you persist saying it will be all my fault, then my response will be um no and try explaining that to God please. I definitely will not date you if you do this.
I don't think a little respect is too much to ask for. Also, for good measure, if you have no sense of humor, aren't adventurous, have the IQ of a rock, wear your pants below your butt, have no ambition in life, have no morals, cuss like a sailor, are into drugs, act trashy, your biggest ambition is to stay on welfare or disability (for those that don't really need it), like to tell me what to do, belittle me, are abusive, or treat me like crap, don't even bother asking me out. You won't meet the minimum standards required to date me.
