Well, you made the best out of the situation and as someone else said, it's good that she let the first bus go and kept talking. That's a good sign! Not every date will go perfectly, that's for sure.

I have to say, I'm impressed that you didn't come back here full of blame for how things went. I'm even more impressed that you came out of it acknowledging that there is something you can work on.

"I will walk you to the bus stop and wait with you until your bus comes"


I said that because it was FREZZING and I didn't have a plan C so I figured we can get to know each other while we waited for her bus to come. So like 2mins later there was her bus and she decided to let it go pass abd continue talking to me in the COLD-lol So we talked and laugh for about 30 mins and then she got on the bus. I told her to call when she arrived home and she did but I did not get home yet. So I will call her before I go to sleep and set up another meeting for a weekend.


So that was the night, I wss FREEZING and for some reason my knee was not hurting when I walked toward her and around her. Only when she got on the bus and left and then the LIMP came back-lol


But in the furture I need to do a better job of planning and find out when places closed so i don't look like a FOOL. That happened to me years ago but the only difference was the place was closed down.

So I need to be a better planner
congrats TVSG

In this case it's a sign of complete and utter insanity!

That's right! I'm sure there's no cafe C in downtown Philly or a few bus stops away!

Wow. You went and she showed up. Other than the dinner snafu, it was good. Well congrats.

I suggest you plan something nice for your next date.

I've gotta say TVSG has at least one good quality - he's honest! Nobody can make this crap up!

It would have been a nice gesture to at least offer the find another spot. (future reference)
