To start off this whole dating game, I came up with a new rule. Well really, I think A came up with a new rule for me, but I adapted it. Just go with it. I typically rule guys out before I even know if they could have any interest in me. Not a good thing to do, just in case you were wondering.
So one night about a week ago, a random guy messaged me on Facebook. On the reg, I would have just ignored him and went about with my Facebook stalking. But rather, my wing woman convinced me that I should just chat him up to see why he was messaging me. So reluctantly, I did. It actually was a very interesting conversation and I found out we had A LOT in common. Who would have known?
Our conversation was going great. I realized that at first he thought I was another person (hence the random message), but it was okay, because according to him he liked me more anyway. He asked me to get lunch next week. He told me I was pretty. Typical, typical, but hey I wasn't complaining. I was a little skeptical, but "just go with it" popped in my head and I agreed to check out my schedule and to let him know later on when I was free.
I won't lie-- I was a little apprehensive about this. I don't really know this guy and social networking is definitely not my typical means of obtaining a man. But hey, whatever- just go with it right??
WRONG! I couldn't even meet up with this guy before he totally turned me off. Somehow our conversation led to the question "Do you go to church?" Ha. I think I might have actually let out a little bit of nervous laughter. Ha. I proceed to tell him, that no I do not go to church, that yes I have my reasons and that he really just doesn't want to start that conversation with me.
Oh but he did. No offense to devout Christians, but I can't handle when someone pushes their religion on me. Once upon a time, I was one of those people, so I understand, I really do. But just stop. I'm not confused, I'm not let down, it's not an issue of pride. I just don't believe what you believe. Thanks for the free psychoanalysis though, I've really been wanting one lately.
This guy has less of a chance with me now than he did before. And before I was only giving him a 1% chance. (I know, I know. I should be giving him more of a chance, but it'll just take time, I promise.) I think he took the hint though. He had messaged me constantly the previous 3-4 days before the church question came up, and in the past 2 days he has hardly said anything to me
Or maybe he took the hint when he gave me his phone number and he never got a text. I guess I still have a lot to learn about the dating scene.
For real though, I don't think that lunch date is going to happen. For all you men out there- if you want a Christian woman, go find one! Don't try to change me!
