Dating and the Single Mom is Back

Things were going well for awhile the dating scene was going pretty smoothly and then out of nowhere I ran into an old friend. Maybe I could say old acquaintance that I haven't seen in about a year. From the first time I saw Jose, I always thought he was pretty cute and he seemed to carry himself pretty well like a well respected gentleman would, or so I thought. Just when I thought I had enough frogs in my life along came Cheeseburger.

One night he came over to my house after we continued to argue over the phone about where we were going to go that night. Things went well for the first 15 minutes at my house until he started whining about how hungry he was. He explained to me that he was on a diet and that he starved himself all day except for a few pieces of fruit and some water. By the time he arrived at my house he was cranky, probably due to a drop in his blood sugar.

Over the course of the next hour he kept hinting to me that he wanted me to call for pizza and I quickly asked him if he was buying dinner. He looked at me and said that he had spent all his money the night before on him and his buddies buying rounds of alcohol. The man was broke and did not have a penny to his name. This was really awkward. I knew my daughter was hungry and she wanted to go out for hamburgers so we went to a local fast food chain.

I ordered food for my daughter and me. I looked over at the sorry look on Cheeseburgers face and asked this grown man what he wanted to eat? I felt like this guy's mother. At this point I was so turned off. He proceeded to order and of course it wasn't easy. He ordered the most expensive meal on the menu, and he super sized it. He then said he wanted some dessert and ordered two chocolate pies. At this point I didn't know what to do scream or wring this man's neck.

We got back to my house and we all sat and ate our food. As we were eating I glanced over at cheeseburger and watched him as he sat there like a little boy eating his food and shaking his leg. He looked like a six year old. It was really weird. As we sat there I looked over and Jose started sneezing. He said he was allergic to cats and said he should have told me that earlier. After a couple of minutes the poor guy was sneezing and coughing. His face was blowing up and he was as red as a tomato. I offered him some allergy medicine and he took it.

I actually felt so sorry for him. I think he knew at this point that he had made a pretty bad first impression, but never apologized for his behavior or coming over to take me out and expecting me to pay. I did ask him if this was common behavior for him and he said yes, it is. I later found out that he is still living with his mom and sleeps on the couch in her living room. One night he mentioned to me when he drunk dialed that when he gets paid he spends most of his money buying video games and taking his buddies out to bars and buying rounds all night. I don't know but I definitely don't think this is the right guy for me or for any girl for that matter. Ladies please beware.
