Just Plain Weird!
Sometimes there's no other way to describe some people's behavior...
Talk about the date
from hell! This one took the cake!
I spoke to this man for a month on the net. We decided to go out the
next Saturday for lunch.
He lived 90 minutes north of me so it was quite a drive to my house.
He showed up in a beat up red truck that looked like the one from
"Sanford and Son". He got out and greeted me at the door. I was under
whelmed. He was unkempt and his clothes were holey.
He explained he'd drive but if he did, my foot may go through the
floorboard because it was rotted out and he wasn't sure the 'baking
sheet' he placed there would 'hold' so I drove.
We went to the Chinese buffet. He told me how beautiful I was and how
he was 'sure' I didn't want him either - that no one did. He went on
to say that he had lost most of his fingers playing with explosives
when he was a teenager and showed me his hands saying 'see! no one
wants a cripple!' He went on to say he had no job now - that he had
lied about having one because a woman with 'class' like me wouldn't
date a man with no job and no prospects - that he was about to lose
his house which wasn't a house at all but a trailer but again didn't
want to tell me the truth because he felt I wouldn't date him if I
knew he had a trailer and not a real home - he had no money and he
said he knew he was ugly too.
He sobbed and cried hysterically saying if I didn't want him he was
going to kill himself because no one had wanted him and I was his
'last chance'. I patted his hand and told him there is someone for
everyone and he had to be patient -- that things would work out for
him and he had to believe that. He paid for lunch and we went back to
my house.
He then said he had a 'gift' for me in the truck and to wait a minute
- he had almost forgotten. He took out two paper sacks with booze in
them handing me the unopened Boone's Farm. He was swigging from what
appeared to be a third of a bottle left of Apricot Brandy! He pushed
his way into my house shoving me to the enclosed front porch. I told
him he had to leave. He said no and continued to drink. He told me he
was 'too drunk to drive' and was staying the night. I told him he was
going home. I got brazen and shoved him out the door locking it behind
me. Bye bye to the date from hell.
I didn't know whether to put this under misrepresentation or just
plain weird, but I think just plain weird sums it up. People are not
always what they represent on the net as you well know and this guy
was definitely not.
Bugger-Cam
I met a guy on line who was a comedian
from a large Midwestern city. We chatted for several weeks on line and
on the phone and got along fine. One day he encouraged me to get a web
cam. I thought they were expensive, but he told me I could get one for
$20, so I did. He had one as well.
One day, while we were on the cams
together, I got a phone call. I was still at my desk while I took the
call so I could see him while I talked. Evidently he forgot that he
was on the cam because while I was slightly diverted (but not totally)
he picked his nose...and ate it. I saw the whole thing. At first I
thought it was a joke (he was a comedian, after all), and I even sent
an instant message referring to it, but he ignored it. It was then
that I realized that it was no joke. He simply forgot that he was on
the cam and did what was natural to him...I was so repulsed that I
never spoke to him again. He sent me several messages and e-mails and
I never responded again. !
Finally he gave up and stopped contacting
me.
