Had a very strange, sort of fun, date with Speedracer, it was to say the least, nothing like I expected- he was nothing like I expected…but I should know by now not to expect anything- Everything in internet dating is absolutely surreal; well it is for me anyway..
So for openners: He was about 3 inches shorter than he says in his profile-Why do men lie about their height?? Its not like girls are going to arrive on the date and not be immediately dissapointed.
It chucked it down with rain the whole night- it rarely does that here. And of course I was wearing my cream silk 'princess dress' which as you ccan imagine becomes absolutely trnasparent when wet! Plus my new grey sandals which, bless them, actually ended up in perfect order and stayed somfortable the entire night inspite of my feet being soaked and brand spanking new, AND lots of walking.
And so much for the church. it was raining too hard, so he met me at the station and headed for the nearest bar- which meant we started in a Weatherspoons! OMG awful. SO there I am with this short much older than his picture guy, soaking wet and, get this- he asked me to buy the first round.
Now, of course normally with me that would be the end of the date right there, but I wanted a drink so I acquiesced. It turned out he was actually quite brght and funny so we ended up having a fun time, albeit with me paying quite a bit, and with the fun moment where we went to the cash machine and he couldnt get any money out, so it was by no means romantic. He was sort of sexy in an odd way...a combination of funny and smart does work on me in some way...so I actually agreed to a second date! Hmmm...
Nothing like a Biological Time Bomb to rattle your standards. Could I really manage a life with a guy who lies about his height? Worse still has very odd money issues? Also in spite of his charm and brilliance there seems something a bit 'not there' about him. Well we'll see.
