1. Restaurant food. There are only so
many restaurants in a given area, and after a few years, you're sick
of all of them. Most (especially early) dating includes restaurants.
Restaurant portions and nutrition information also verge on
terrifying.
2. Bad guys. You know, I didn't meet up
with a whole lot of creeps when I was single. Most guys were great.
The two examples I have to pass down to...Malinda's daughter, maybe?
Caitlin's? are 1. The guy who dropped me off by the side of the road
in the middle of the night after an argument. 2. The guy who wrote me
a story type thing about him and me. A few months later, he gave the
same thing (with one sentence changed) to another girl.
3. First date questions. “What's do
you do?” “What's your major?” “Where are you from?”
4. Heels. When Ian and I go out, I
don't have to wear heels. I mean, we grocery shop together; I'm
hardly breaking out any of my gorgeous shoes for that. Sure, for a
nice date, I'll pull out the lovely grey heels Jess gave me, but I
never HAVE to wear them—and risk looking like a baby fawn for the
evening.
5. Breaking up. I HATE breaking up with
people. It's uncomfortable. It's sad. It makes me feel like the worst
person in the world.
This list brought to you by my
friend who had a crappy first date tonight; her tale sent a wave of
thankfulness through me.
