The ups and downs of being single in your 30's...early 30's that is. |
Last week I "winked" at a guy on Match.com. His profile wasn't full of detail, but what it did say intrigued me enough, plus his picture was cute! He emailed me back and simply said, "Hi, would you like to meet at the casino sometime?" I was puzzled by this. Who suggests going to a casino on a first date/meeting? Would we chat as we pulled the lever of a slot machine or was he a high roller and hoping me blowing on his dice would bring him luck?? I waited a day or two and responded telling him I had only been to our casino's once and I wasn't against meeting there; however, it would have to be during the day as I would not feel comfortable parking in a structure downtown in the evening alone. He replied saying, "Alright, you've got a deal. What is your number? Mine is..." Wow, on the 2nd email already asking for a number. Not sure why, but I responded giving him my number. Not even two hours after sending that email my phone rang...no joke!! I was at work so I didn't even think to answer it. It was him! His voice mail made him sound like he was a little slow or very high...not sure which would be better! I had plans after work so I had no intentions of calling him back that day, which was Friday. Saturday I woke up and started cleaning my apartment and my phone rang, but this time it was the guy from Match that I actually like. We chatted for two hours (how crazy is that?!) and then I got in the shower . When I got out of the shower I checked my phone and noticed I had a missed call and new voice mail. Three guesses who it was! Yep, it was the other guy from Match that had left me a voice mail not even 24 hours prior. What does that say??? I still have not called him back and at this point I'm not sure I'm going to. I am considering sending him an email, not sure what to say, and then blocking him from contacting me. Maybe I'm overreacting, but it seems a little odd to be so aggressive so soon...doesn't it?! |
