yesterdays date

ok so yesterday i broke an online dating rule. I went out to meet up with a guy who i hadn't seen a pic of. So upon arrival he didn't make me scream and run but he didn't make my uhhh heart quiver either. So we had a nice chat over some tea and then we took a nice stroll around the neighborhood near a not so local Starbucks. He was a little dull and mildly strange but seemed really sweet. We talked for about three hours, one conversation topic was why he felt the need to keep asking me for hugs. Yup he did and yup he asked often he asked twice in Starbucks and about 37 more times through the course of the evening. I thought that my initial refusal would be enough but he, like any other challenged child, kept asking over and over. Finally i though 'ehh what could it hurt' so i hugged him thinking that perhaps this was his way of gauging chemistry and then with each hug i could hear his breath quicken and though gee i wonder if this is what gets him off? But alas I didn't listen to my instincts and i continued to hang out with my huge hugging freak thinking that i could find a grain of fun in him and then no it was not to be found. After hug request number 43 i finally felt the need to address the issue of creepiness with dude.
"Dude", I said, "what's up with the hugging?" to which dudes response was "I like to hug" oooooo K so i tell him how i see that as a way of getting close enough to kiss and since I'm not ok with kissing him at the present juncture of our relationship he should probably back off. To he only asked another few million times, each request dancing delicately on the line between sweet and psycho.
So as we ended our embrace filled evening he asked when he could see me again, and since I have little to no ability to be honest to someones face i said bumble bumble stumble stumble tomorrow?
Ok so the plan was to hang out with him again to give him the speech about how i didn't feel that you know ... spark and i wound up getting blown off! LMFAO talk about irony.
So regardless of my actual level of interest in said hug machine i still felt the need to better understand the psyche of this man. So i did what any other girl would do, enlist the advice of a male friend. And since my male friends know how to speak to me he simply said "he was trying to get laid and you didn't put out, not even a kiss let alone head. So yeah he has no interest in actually getting to know u just what's in ur pants."
Oh well, so as the song "I'm just a hug machine (lol)" dances through my head I will bid my blog adu until tomorrow nights date with dude of the week #2.
