First Date, and He Turns Out to be A Douche Bag.
We've all been there. You've text, maybe sent some e-mails, swapped pictures. Even speaking on the phone a few times. He seems like a great guy on paper. At least, he presents himself like a good guy.
He has some fun hobbies, has similar taste in movies and doesn't even mind that I have kids. He used to be a snowboarding instructor at Spirit Mountain. Oh yeah, and he works at Petco. Dude works with animals all day. Score a point for compasionate dude!
But what do you do when it's time to meet the guy, he shows up and... The dog disapproves. Hiro hates him on site.
I had plenty of male friends over to help us move in and Hiro loved them. In fact, he loves my BFF a little too much if you know what I mean. ;)
Hiro barked and snarled and promptly peed on the dude.
I'll give him points for perserverence, he did not immediately turn around and leave. He stood there, leg soaked in dog piss and came in anyway.
I sprayed vinegar on him to help with the smell, apologized profusely and put the dog into the bedroom. Mistake. I have an over inflated sense of safety with Hiro around. I trust him implicitely. And I wasn't listening. He told me the guy was a douche bag the moment he walked in the door.
Then Mr. Nice Guy disappeared. It was unwanted kisses and awful questions that no decent man should ask someone they're meeting for the first time.
Douche Bag symptoms:
He told me the story of how he lost his virginity, taking the opportunity to praise his own sexual prowess.
He asked me about sexual positions, telling me he preffers to be on the bottom and would never do Doggie because he is not a dog.
He made faces and motions with his hands and pelvis to show me how he would be fucking me. We. Just. Met. For the first. Time.
He wanted to know if I'm "loud". I didn't even understand what he was talking about at first. And couls feel myself blush HARD as I stammered about not knowing him enough to answer. He pressed more for an answer, of course.
Ignoring attempts to steer conversation back to more acceptable topics. Like, can you stop talking about sex for two minutes maybe?!
Ignoring me flat out telling him his questions were too personal and made me uncomfortable. Bro, stop! #nomeansno
Telling me I will "have to get used to" his "sexual jokes" that he tells all the time. No, no I don't.
Grabbing my breasts and ass. Guy. We are still strangers at this point. Fuck off and jump off a bridge. #metoo
I am so livid. I told him I am not interested in the date he was trying to set up. He's trying to invite me to his house for sex.
At no point did I ever hint or state or allude to wanting sex. Or wanting to be touched.
Oh yes. He also claimed me as being "in a relationship" with him on Facebook. WE JUST FUCKING MET!!!
Fast forward to yesterday. The day after everything went down. I was at work during the day and immediately after some family was hanging out as they had just gotten into town. Hella busy. No time to play games with douche bags. But this guy...
That's 7 text messages, 4 missed phone calls and 6 facebook messages. #overcontrollingdouche
All talking about the "date" ahead. Or asking about my day. Or whining that I'm ignoring him.
Can you imagine what a guy like this will do to a woman that accepts him? Just smarmy and gross. I sent him a lengthy reply calling him out for his shit, reiterating my disinterest and wishing him well. Hopefully my little note makes him realize what a douche he really is. Doubt it, though.
Watch out ladies. Some guys are absolute pigs, dressing up as one of the good guys.
Thank you for reading my ordeal. No more will I ever ignore Hiro's warning. #goodjudgeofcharacter
UGH creeper pervert douchebag, for sure. Holy crap. Good boy, Hiro!
My kitties are the good judges of character, too. Deidre (since passed) and Maggie have both gone off on different dudes, and when Maggie really unusually (she generally doesn't like men, period) approved of my friend's fianceé, we were both like, "YOU GOT MAGGIE APPROVAL. YOU ARE THE CHOSEN ONE."
Yuan, meanwhile, is pretty social. Give him treats or love, and he's chill, lol.
Oh Mackenzie 😰 👊🙈 what a donk! Glad you are getting that off your chest. Goodness!! I have never dated online, i don't think it was a thing 16 years ago. Before i was married. I think it became popular shortly after. First test date must pass is the Hiro test!!! Good lesson to learn off the hop. Here's to better luck next time 🤞
Hugs girl 💖💛💜💚💙🦋
I am so glad I do not have to navigate the dating world and hope I never have to ever again
Oh man! If that guy were to touch my ass and boobs, I would have thrown his ass out the window. Literally! And most possibly with a broken wrist.
Go Hiro! Man of the house lol! You and your dog are fit for life. Your guardian for sure. I Love that you have him. I wonder what would have happened if Hiro was not in the bedroom while douche was grabbing you. Glad nothing more than this happened. XX
Ugh that is the worst!! I am sorry you went through that....douche is right. Creepy and gross blah it makes my skin crawl, ya know??!?
Wash it off and carry on <3 <3 <3 I am glad you have Hiro, sounds like a solid dude;) he picks up on negative shit!!
Oh noooo!! That's so shitty. Good for you for standing up for yourself. That guy needs a lobotomy. 😬
That is terrible. Sorry you went through that. In any of the communications before the date, did he make any of these "jokes" you were supposed to get used too? It sucks and I am sorry you went through that. What a DOUCHE.
Nope. The only thing even remotely connected is when he said he hadn't dated in three years.
In the beginning, I didn't take that metoo-stuff seriously. I simply refused to believe guys like that existed ... at least not in any significant amount. What can I say ... I was very wrong.
Unfortunately it is everywhere.
My first sexual encounter was when I was in the 4th grade, 8 years old. A babysitter came up with a game of "hide and seek". But we counted together. In the dark. And I sat on his lap.
There are men with serious issues all around us.
What in the natural ....?!?!?!?
Yeah, animals have a sense about these things. That conversation was so wrong on so many levels. So glad he is gone and hopefully can find someone else who will put up with that BS!
Ok this!! This right here!! I am almost 52 and I chose to quit dating about 3 years ago!! Now I see the guys around here and just think gross!! They are all weather beaten and dried up prunes from smoking. The dunno how to bathe or make an effort at any kind of hygiene!! I mean I'm no show boat either but I don't drink or do drugs OR smoke and I participate in a hygiene regimen fcol!! This guy!! He is just gross!! What a jerk!! I would of knee'd him in the nads and thrown him out!! U had kids there!! RESPECT buddy!!! Sorry to rant...I just get real tired if this BS!! You a tough strong smart intelligent woman who he should be honored you even glanced his way!! (No I'm not gay...just very fed up!!). SIGH...
