Riding on the way back from lunch today with some co-workers brought up another one of my infamous "dates". Discussing this one, which always brings up a laugh, birthed this jewel of a title I've graced you with. It came out of the mouth of one of a dear co-workers and I thought it was hilarial.
On to the story. I'd met this guy where he worked. I was just excited to have met a "real boy" not someone off the internet. He was super cute, which is a shame because he turned out to be a bit of a tool box.
For starters our first date was pretty casual. Met at a local pub, shot the shit, talked about past relationships (he did I don't. That's a dating no no), talked about our likes and dislikes, so on. We kept up conversation so all round it was a good first date. One thing bothered me however. And this may sound picky, but he liked e-cigarettes. And he liked them not because he was trying to quit but because he didn't like the smell of cigarettes. However, this didn't stop him from asking me for one of my "real" cigarettes then NOT inhaling. Waste. Still I agreed to another date.
Next date was still casual. We met at my spot, Mad I, because on our first date he said he use to go there a lot and he really liked it. My bestie works there. I got way too out of control the night before and was hung over all day (and night) for our next date. Still doesn't excuse the actions that came along. First off he freakin poked at my stomach and said, "Oh you're pudgy". Come again? Did you just poke my stomach and call me pudgy? Did this really happen!? It did. Ok, so I said, "Um I'm not pudgy". Rolled off. Next, and I can't even believe this is real life, he comes back from the restroom and does a sly "Got your nose" move. I am not kidding! He took my nose like my grandfather would do when I was 5 years old. I'm in shock here. He says, "Do you want it back" to which I reply, "No thanks I'm good". He then says, "I'll keep it then". You do that.
The date didn't end there. After him poking me, calling me pudgy (no way to talk to a girl by the way) and stealing my nose, I was anxious to get the hell out of there. He walks me to my car, because can you believe it, he's made me a mixed cd and got me a tshirt (his work). Just and fyi, the cd sucked! Anyways, I know he's going to want a kiss, because we had kissed on our first date (I should really stick to the no kissy on the first date rule) so I decide I just want to get this over with and give him a kiss. I go in for the kiss and he pulls back and says, "Wow wow wow you're friends are watching". Wow wow wow did I just get turned down by a guy I didn't even want to kiss in the first place? Um yeah I did. I say, "fine" and get in my car. On starts the begs from him for a kiss. No thanks buddy you turned me down, embarrassed me, I'm oh so heart broken (sarcasm) and I'm going home. I didn't kiss him, and I avoided all his texts after that. We're still facebook friends however and I see he has a girlfriend now. I wonder if he got her nose too.

This is what sucks about dating. The things left behind. Sometimes you have to forget about these things, let them go. Other times they are too important and you have to make the dreaded call and trip to their place to get your things back. (Of course they are thinking you are really there to start things up again) Tara, what are you gonna do?? YOU GOTTA GET YOUR NOSE BACK!
