The United Dates Of Sarah - After Date Etiquette - Entry 15


Hey Everyone!!! So it's been a while, I know but I have some great stories for you :) First of all, I am now casting so check out the website: www.DoronOfirCasting.com

Second of all, my mother and aunt have started their own business....what is it you ask??

Speed Dating!

I know you might think that my experiences with speed dating may deter people, HOWEVER their type of speed dating is different and awesome if I do say so myself. Check it out and sign up!! www.SoCalExpressDate.com

Lastly...I got a pretty crazy pick up line this week at a bar. I don't know if you're ready for it..but here it goes:

"I like my women just like my glasses. On my face!"

Ok, now that that's taken care of, let's talk about after date etiquette. I actually got this idea from a friend of mine in SD. Holllaaa! He texted me this:

"I need help. I went on a date with a girl from Tinder and I don't think that I want to see her again so what do I text her tonight?"

This might sound harsh but if you don't want to go out on a second date, you don't owe the person anything. In my opinion, there's no need to text the person.

For me, a girl, if I enjoyed myself and want to go on a second date, I'll write a short "thank you" text to him and let them know I had a great time. If I didn't have a good time, I won't text him anything and just let it go. Like I said, you don't owe the person anything after a first date.

I don't think it's necessary to text or call the person and tell them you don't feel like it's going to work out. Here's a story of a recent date I went on and never texted the guy again...and he never texted me again #MutualDislike

We'll call this guy: The Laugher

So I "met" this guy on Ok Cupid and he seemed really nice and he asked me out in a timely manner...what I mean by that is he didn't wait a month to ask me out! He actually realized the convo was going well and he wanted to continue it in person. Ok, so he asked me to go to a UCB improv show. I was excited because it was a new and innovative date idea!

So we decide to meet at the show after work but as I get to UCB I realize there's no parking except for valet and I didn't have any cash so as I pull up to Valet I ask if there is an ATM near by and they said there's one right behind them.

Great! I decided to valet and after the show, I'll get some cash and pay for valet. Right?!

I find "The Laugher" in line and we talk but it's super awkward. He's not good in person and we kind of start talking about the weather...and there are long pauses and it's weird but maybe that's why he wanted to go see an improv show, so we didn't have to talk.

We finally get seated and he's soooo excited....it's kind of weird. The show starts and the comedians are funny but this guy is dying laughing. I mean, dying laughing which includes hand clapping and rocking forward and backwards. I mean, don't get me wrong...I'm glad he's having a good time but ummm...no.

The show ends and asks me where I'm parked and I told him I valet parked but I needed to hit the ATM before, which I was told was right behind the valet stand. He walked with me over to the ATM area but then we saw a sign that changed the rest of the night for us....


The sign on the ATM said "Out of Service". Ohhh man! so I go inside the bakery next to the ATM and ask if I can buy something and pay extra on a credit card or get cash back? He said no and we asked if there was another ATM nearby. The guy behind the counter said there should be one down the street but it's in a store that might be closed. The Laugher and I decided to check it out anyways. All the meanwhile, he seems to be getting a little more annoyed. He's starting to walk faster and breath heavier.

We do get to the second ATM but the store is closed. I look around and see there's a grocery store! Perfect! They'll definitely do cash back so I say to him:

Me: I'll just go over there. You don't have to come.

The Laugher: No, it's fine. Let's just go.

We start walking over and suddenly he stops.

The Laugher: You know what. I'll just give you the money. How much is it?

Me: No it's totally fine. I'll just go to the store.

The Laugher: How much is Valet?

Me: $6

The Laugher: Ok....I mean, I have the money. Here

**As I see him exacerbated...I just think about how much time we could have saved if he just offered it in the first place. The tickets to the comedy show were free for him because he takes classes there and we didn't get any food or drinks so this night cost nothing which is fine...I was just confused as to why he was so frustrated with the situation when he had the solution the whole time... it's like I was wasting his time....

Me: Can I buy you a coffee or a cookie at the bakery to pay you back?

The Laugher: Ummm....no that's fine...just take it.

Me: Ok, thank you.

The Laugher: Sure. Drive safely.

And that was that! #SixDollarDate

On to the next story! This is from a guy on the Israel trip and it's a good one!

We'll call him Mr. Patient and we'll call her the Psycho.

About a year ago Mr. Patient was visiting his friend in Los Angeles. They decided to hit up a bar nearby. When they got there, they saw two very pretty girls. Mr. Patient liked one of the girls and they got to talking. He sealed the deal and he ended up at the girl's house...although he was a gentleman and didn't sleep with her that night....the next night was a different story though. For the next three nights they spent a ton of time together but Mr. Patient had to leave and go back to Arizona. He was, however, planning on moving to Los Angeles to go to school...and she knew that.

Anyways, after 5 days of knowing each other this girls decides to pull this off:



She says she loves him!!! I mean, I've heard of Love At First Sight buuuutttt maybe she should have hidden her crazy a little longer.

Mr. Patient told her that she didn't love him and she should see how their relationship goes as long distance. Needless to say, she was insane! She called and texted him like she was going through bipolar spats. One minute she's asking why he's not texting her back fast enough and the next minute she's saying, "I'm sorry babe! I know you're busy. I love you. Call me".

To take it one step further, Cray Cray Psycho started looking for apartments for the two of them! She knew he would be moving to LA for school so she wanted to help him out and get a jump on it. Once she found a place that would be fitting for the two of them, she would CC Mr. Patient on emails she would send to the landlords. In these emails, she would talk about her and her BOYFRIEND. Yes...she did make him her boyfriend without talking to him about it first. All of this to say, he ended up getting into a school in another state. You might guess what Psycho did next. Yep! She started looking for places for the two of them in AZ. She would get angry at Mr. Patient because she needed to know if she should quit her job and start looking for new ones.

He told her to ABSOLUTELY not leave her job...but she started looking anyways! #IDontTakeNoForAnAnswer

Mr. Patient was VERY patient but one day she took it too far!!

He wasn't feeling well at work and she was basically cussing him out over text message because he wasn't responding. Finally he said he wasn't feeling well and he just needed time. That translated to "you're making me ill" in her head. She got so mad!!

Turns out he had appendicitis and needed emergency surgery. Once she found out, she told him she was going to buy a plane ticket to come take care of him but he said NO!

This psycho, in a matter of one month told Mr. Patient she loved him and wanted to move to Arizona...No offense but calm your crazy!!! It was almost like this fast...except she was the one who would be proposing...






Anyways, as you can see, Mr. Patient needed to keep his cool in order to make sure she didn't fly to AZ and be super psycho..Also, in these couple of months, she unfriended him and friended him numerous times on FB...their current status right now is not friends.
