Well, that was a first

This weekend I had my first irate dating experience. So I have been seeing Cyberboy for about a month and we have gone on 3 dates and had about twice as many phone conversations. He was nice, but there was none of that za-za-zu. Basically, I just wasn't really feeling it. (he does not look like the man to the left, but perfect image of feeling)

In the mean time, Mr.J has come back in the picture as well. Although we are not rushing back together, we are talking and hanging out. What can I say, I love the kid.

So I had told Cyberboy about Mr.J as a way to say "thanks, but no thanks." He gushed about how much he wanted to get to know me better, so I was a softie and caved into another date. Friday, I reeeaaalllyy wasn't feeling it, so I canceled (there were also scheduling conflicts, but essentially I said, no). I thought by now he might be getting the hint, but no.

So Saturday I finally bit down and told him flat out, this is not working. What does he do? Call me a money grabbing bitch, essentially. Now, I am not that materialistic, growing up in Maine I think it is hard to be. I don't buy articles of clothing for over $50 and always on sale. A $40 dinner out is classy and I would much rather stay in watching a movie than a night on the town. But it was not enough for him to insult me once, but I received three late night text messages.

#1 - saying "you used me for dinner dates"

#2 - saying "I knew you were all about money, now this proves it to me"

#3 - "You had a great guy trying to get to know you better, you ex will dump you again, you'll see"

So, I think 1 and 2 pretty much negate #3. If you were a "great guy" I doubt you would stoop to the level of accusing someone you had been on 3 dates with in the last month as using you for money. I also find it ironic as I work in an entreprenurial business where we work because of passion and not necessarily profit, and he works in the financial district.

Oh well, one for the books ; )
