After the three day rule had passed, you texted me to see if I wanted to do something. I don’t like it when guys employ that dating rule and think there’s a lack of interest when they do that, but I wanted to stay open-minded. We decided on doing something low key by going to Ted Drewes with our dogs. Unfortunately, this was probably our worst date.
I arrived 45 mins after you because I was stuck in traffic trying to come back from the other side of the river. I had been hanging out with someone else earlier, which you had guessed but didn’t say anything at the time. It was impromptu and I felt really bad about how late I was. I had also been outside all day and felt like a mess. Still, you were sweet and compromising.
I think that’s the only time that we’ve ever really been bored together and at a loss for words. Maybe my late arrival was nagging at me and I wasn’t feeling myself. All we could talk about was our pets and the conversation was much slower in pace. Although, it was still far better than the boring guy who didn’t like dogs as previously mentioned. You brought Eli but I didn’t get a chance to bring Teddy.
I thought that was going to be our last date… Afterwards, you accidentally called me and I called then messaged you back. I was surprised that you ended up asking me to go to Oktoberfest that Friday. You told me on the first date that sometimes people have off days and you don’t want to write someone off too as a result of one bad date. I’m glad that you gave us another shot despite my horrible date performance.
