    Oh man so the girl I was supposed to see tomorrow has pushed the plans ahead to seeing her tonight to get some margaritas. I said sure and I am going to be seeing her soon. Now the over analyst in me is like why such a hurry lady? And the laid back guy is like oooh margaritas! I also smell a trap and I think I am going to be thrown in to a meet all her friends for after work drinks thing.

    Thing is though as I talk to her she keeps doing the whole "you don't have to if you don't want to routine" with every suggestion she makes and it kinda bugs me. I have also been watching a lot of Seinfeld recently.

    It's a shit test. You accepted her plan. You already lost,cause she is trying to beta-fy you.

    Haha yeah probably. Anyways this is a lot better because the original plan was to hang out most of the 4th together for the first time which is way too long for a first meet. This way maybe a max of two hours and if its weird and shitty then tomorrow is saved.

    Well I'm out. Why do I always get the feeling I am about to be murdered when I do an internet date?

    My friend ?

    You've got a girl that used to be fat.

    Be gentle for she is like a deer. Beautiful to look at but fragile and quick to flee.

    I just pictured Aqua meeting her, she freezing and them bolting to the door, jumping over some tables on the way.

    Ok yeah noooo way am I pursuing a second date. She was cute and we laughed here and there but it wasn't very fun. She told me to call her tomorrow but I dunno. She was no deer. More like a um a type of animal that isn't shy...um damn I can't think of one that won't sound demeaning.

    And I totally called it that she would have back up girls there.

    Oh that kind can be tricky. Hey if yshe greenlit a second date you should at least give it another try. Maybe without her crew she's easier to talk to.

    Be honest but be nice about it. Don't be vague.

    I apparently live in the ass-end of nowhere. I just signed up for OkCupid and there's like 3 pages of girls within 25 miles of me, none of whom I find appealing. Dang. When it says 'within 25 miles', it means '35 miles away'. There's like 2 girls in my town on this site, and I live in a town of over 100,000 people. I would've thought there would be slightly better numbers.

    Sounds like the problem might be with you guys? Three pages of women and none that are appealing?

    I don't know there are some real nasty chicks on OKC.

    Like Whatever the female equivalent of a neckbeard is. And they all have awful names like lovestobcute or cuddlebugz1

    I'm waiting to be able to meet this one girl. We've played many games together online, but despite her by far being closer to me than any of the other girls I've met from OKC she doesn't have a car to drive so we can't meet in a neutral place. Which is a rule I usually follow, but she apparently always follows.

    When I say 'none that are appealing', what I mean is either:

    a) whales
    b) omgZ tyPPin lyk dIssss xxxxxx
    c) nice enough looking, and competent enough at communicating, but from the looks of it we share absolutely no interests whatsoever

    You might want to try other websites. On OKC there are about 5 girls who live in the same city as me who are within my age range. Plenty Of Fish has atleast a couple dozen so thats where I made my profile
