Agreed to meet this guy for a "quick drink" after work because I had to go home and take care of my dog. I actually had a decent time. He was very knowledgeable about random things and kept me entertained. He was very touchy as he talked...and...I kindof like that. Not bad looking too. He was a consultant and owned his own business and seemed pretty intelligent.
I agreed to a second date, which was about two weeks later because I had my Dad visiting from out of town and he was busy as well.
We went to this Italian "tapas" place. I was having an "ok" time. Definitely pleasant but no jitters. He was a year younger than me and a little bit immature but still not tossing in the towel.
Here's the clincher.....
We ordered this appetizer of bread with cheese and honeycomb. They give you just a little bit of honeycomb that you have to use sparingly if you want to have enough for all 6 slices of bread. I still had about 1.5 slices left on my plate and he was down to his last slice. He scraped up ALL of the honeycomb off the plate. I would say that 99% of guys that I date offer me the last bit of the appetizer or put food on my plate. This guy had no clue. He didn't even realize that he did not leave any for me. If this was "good behavior" on the 2nd date...who knows what is to come.
Went back to his place since he lived down the block. I said I had to go pretty early. And just about close to my car, I realized that I left my really nice Pashmina shawl at his place. He said that it is just another excuse to see me again. WTF was I supposed to do now?!? Later that week, I had a meeting close to his house and I texted him to see if I can stop by and get it. Phew!
Next.......
