My First Second Date!!!

Although my blog is titled “Online Dating in the City”, it’s actually about my dating experiences overall. For the first time in my life I can say I went on a second date!!! I met him through my friend’s friend. We were at a Bachorlette party and a gay guy asked if we were Single? Married? Or in a relationship? Everyone there were either married or in a relationship, but I was the only single one. My friend’s friend offered to hook me up with her friend. My friend (the Bachlorette) was excited for my date and so was I. She would not tell me anything about him except that he was tall. We were talking through text messaging almost every day. He seemed like a cool guy. I was really nervous the day when I met him, because I didn’t know what he looked like and because he’s friends’ (Bachelorette) friend friend (it’s getting confusing), I wanted to make sure everything went well. He was running late of course (I don’t understand why people think it’s ok to be late?!), so I went to t...

Dates are like Interviews... pt.2

I don't know about you, but I have been on many many many job interviews. Recruiters really like my resume, but the companies I meet with don't seem to think I'm right for the position. On paper I seemed to be qualified, but apparently not in person. So, I went on a date few weeks ago.... His specs: Job: Teacher Ethnicity: Korean Lives: Toronto Memorable Quote: "I am extremely cheap" Height: 5'6 (I am 5'5, when we were standing on a small slant I was taller than him) Religion: Something that sounds cult-ish Guys!! If you are cheap, DO NOT announce it on your first date!! The word cheap has a negative connotation. Anyways, I thought the date went well, he had a great personality (although short). We knew a lot of the same people, dated a girl I know and even went on a date with my friend few years ago! The girl broke up with him because he was in a cult-ish religion.. He did try to justify it (but I agree with her) ... He also talked about sho...

Another Stand Up Guy!!

I am NOT having any luck with this online dating thing.. There was a guy who would message me "Good Morning Lovely ....." or "Good Night Beautiful ...." after corresponding with him for about 3 weeks we decided to finally meet. First I asked the guy when he was off work and he replied at 5pm. I told him I was going to be off at 4 because my bosses were away and then he replied asked if I wanted to meet at 4 or even at 2pm. He came on a little strong.. which worried me.. So the day of, I decided to get my nails done and meet him at 4:30pm at Tundra. I was excited because I have never been there and have heard good reviews. At 4:24pm I made my way to Tundra and messaged him. I even ruined my freshly manicured nails because my phone was way deep in my purse and I didn't want to miss his message or call. He messaged back saying he was on his way and would be there in 5 mins. Once I arrived I messaged him... No Answer I waited at Tundra, ordered a gla...
