It wasn't a date but for all intents and purposes it had all the elements minus the sexual attraction.
Quick rundown: I saw that it was a friend's birthday on FB. I haven't seen her in like 5 years but I text her "Happy Birthday." I asked her what she was doing for her birthday and she told me she had not plans so I offered to take her to lunch to catch up and b/c I just wanted to go to one of my favorite spots. She accepted and we scheduled for Saturday.
Saturday comes and after some schedule delays including her trying to flake on me at the last minute. We arrive at the location which, of course, had closed from 3 to 5 to prepare for dinner so we have to find another spot. No big deal the food is cheaper at the second spot anyway.
Positive Points: We had a good time. We reminiscence about the past and recant funny stories etc. She had flirted with the waiter who was a portly older gentleman at the beginning and so throughout the meal he was aggressively hitting on her. At one point he just handed her a pen and a piece of paper and said "You are not leaving without giving me your number." I found this very amusing.
Negative Points: I carried the whole conversation. We literally were there for almost 4 hours and she did not ask me one question about myself, my work, my family and anything going on in my life. Not one damn question.
At one point I just stopped talking just to see if she would ask. Nope we just sat there in silence until I picked the conversation back up. But of course when I asked about the baby daddy she had nothing but negative shyt to say about him, his wife and how she never wanted him anyway.
The Conclusion: As we are walking back to our cars she tells me she wants me to come meet her at her job for lunch sometime since she works close to my house. I tell her that since I work from home that could be a possibility.
Her: You working from home?
Me: Yes, I have my own business. Been doing it full times for over 2 years.
Her: Really?
Me: Yeah. We did 8K in sales last month.
Her: OMG yes please come up! If you need anything (she works retail and gets paid off commission) I got you. I can get you whatever you need.
Me:
We'll see.
Final thoughts:
Although, I did enjoy myself I was really shocked at the inconsideration that she showed. I wasn't offended b/c I don't offend easily but damn. How do you not ask one damn question about the person who offered to do something nice for you just b/c. I know ya'll complain about women a lot but is this level of inconsideration common in women or did I just get a dud?
PS She won't be seeing me again.
