I am a single, independent Gemini woman living in Ventura County, CA. This is not meant to be some life changing, awe inspiring dating advice blog; it is just me and my random, some times contradicting thoughts and points of view on dating while living in the suburbs. It's not always easy or fun but this is my life and I hope that my experiences are entertaining or informative; if even just to get to know myself better through the therapeutics of writing, I will continue and write when I feel the need to....I've been at this for YEARS now and have yet to find my prince charming, so follow me through my life as being SINGLE IN THE SUBURBS and be glad you're not me! ;)

5/13/2010: Mr. Baby Teeth

Thursday


Location: Lupe's Restaurant


So, usually whether you like the person or not you at least pretend through the dinner and through the goodbyes to be cordial. Well, I was trying. The second I walked in to Lupe's and spotted my date at a booth I had a feeling I wasn't going to like him. When he reached out to shake my hand, I knew I wasn't going to.There was something un trusting about Mr. Baby Teeth. A mechanical engineer by trade and hailing from Atascadaro originally, I couldn't quite pin point what it was until half way through our meal. His had what could only be described as baby teeth. They were tiny! It was just so distracting! He said he wasn't from the area but through our conversation his story didn't add up. It came out that he had worked for the same place every year as an internship for the past 4 years and described living in Westlake Village back in 99...So while he claimed to be a new transplant, there was something fishy there! When he said he liked Mexican food and I chose Lupe's, he said he had never been there however he seemed to know his place around easily. We finished dinner and while he paid the bill, once we walked out of the restaurant, he made a bee line to his car without more than a glance back and a wave. Very ODD! I have never had a first date end so abruptly and awkward! My car was parked in the back where there are no street lights but I guess the thought of being mugged was better then the idea of ending with an uncomfortable hug and possible kiss attempt from Mr. Baby Teeth!
Oh, by the way: His online profile said he was 6'1 but with only 1.5 inch heels on, I was towering over him. Too many lies for a 2nd date!

UPDATE SUNDAY MAY 16:
Mr. Baby Teeth actually texted me to ask if I wanted to hit some golf balls with him after work on Monday!...How did he get from our date that a 2nd was warranted? ...(Or did he just feel a friendship, where I did not?) ...either way, kinda weird! I didnt respond. He reminded me too much of an ex co-worker who creeped me out too much!

That is not a nice thing to say about me. I only creeped you out this much | |

That is just way to weird. You walked out of the restaurant and he just took off? Who does that?

I am really curious who the ex-coworker is! I could take a guess but it might not be someone here for all I know.
