Just to finish my story, it went fro funny to just bad, as this man proceeded to ask me as I was taking a spoonful of yogurt, why I hadn't had any children yet, since I was over 35, and even had the gall to make nasty comments about my car, asking me if I owned my home!!!!! I just couldn't wait to get away from him, but I had to drive him back to his car.......and that was the beginning of the end!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I decided to use a baseball term to help me in dating. Quite simply said, "3 strikes, and you're out"!!!! This one is a doozie. Hang onto your hat, we're going on a ride!!
