I joined two online dating sites recently and went on my first date in a long time yesterday. My date had to borrow his sister's car to come on our date. When he got there, we had Tex Mex which he was trying for the first time. He really liked it. We had good conversation throughout. When the bill comes, he says "So, how are we gonna do this?" and he turns to me.....I'm glad I was able to convince him to try the restaurant's special which was fajitas for two at $12.87 which is normally $25. I ended up paying for our meal which included his sprite and the tip. Total was right below $20 so not expensive at all....but...so we leave the restaurant. Outside in the parking lot, he catches me off-guard and kisses me. One of the worst kisses I've had in a long time. He suggests we go to the mall. By the way, I knew he was unemployed before we went on the date. I didn't let that bother me since many have fallen on hard times lately. (But he doesn't even have a cell phone.) Well, once in the mall, he asks to borrow my cell phone to call his sister to find out if he can stay out later or if she needs him to return with the vehicle. He is 32 y/o. (He is currently living with his sister rent-free.) I tell him I'm meeting some of my friends at a pub. He says "I don't want you to go to the pub, I rather you stay and hang out with me." I was just laughing inside. You can't even pay for a $20 meal yet u wanna tell me what to do?? LOL. So I say, well, where exactly are we gonna go? He has no money or at least pretends not to and I definitely am not gonna pay for anything else. So I told him it was either we go to the pub or he can leave. He suggests we go to my place to which I responded by scoffing. He goes with me to a pub where I met some of my friends. He was so quiet...didn't say a word to my friends outside of "Hi, I'm _______." He left shortly thereafter and went home. I stayed with my friends. He asked me if I was going to call him today. I didn't. I get a message from him saying "Did I do that poorly last night that I don't even get a last call to say things won't work. I have to admit I expected better from you. I guess I miss judged u." So that's his message word for word, spelled just like he did.
Needless to say, there will not be a second date. How could he expect a second date and for me to be head over heels with him after that?????
Thanks...I won't. The dating site where I met him has a journal section and a forum. I really am tempted to write a journal entry on this date...I hope he reads it.

That stood out for me. Why?
Because:
a) I don't have a cell phone, by choice
b) If I did have one I would put it away while we were on a date
c) If you answered your phone on the first date it would probably be the last date

a) His not having a cell is NOT by choice. He was actually carrying an iPhone with him...it just wasn't connected. I didn't even know he didn't have a cell until he asked to borrow mine.
b) I totally agree with this. Having cell phone convos on a date is rude.
c) I did answer my phone when my mom called. She tends to worry when I don't answer since I live 1600 miles away. Talked to my mom for 10 seconds just to tell her I'd call her back.

I'm going to continue searching but if I continue to meet the likes of him, single I shall remain and happily so.
