Mr. Bollywood


And now, for the date of the week…..
This next gentlemen I met (and I will say gentlemen because in all fairness, he really was one) seemed to have his act together. This man was from India, was divorced, and had been living in this country for 13 years and had his own business. That was definitely a turn on. A man who is well off and smart in the business world is exciting! He was attractive and smart with a dry sense of humor. We talked on the phone a great deal before actually going on our first date. I noticed he seemed to always be calling me or texting me. (This immediately sent off a warning signal. Really I should’ve paid attention to this; I’m not quite sure why I am sometimes a glutton for punishment by not listening to my inner voice! ) The day of our first date I missed one of his phone calls and immediately got a text ‘What r u doing?’ Are you serious? A girl can’t miss a phone call or two? I called him back and let him know that wasn’t cool. He apologized and said he was worried because I had never missed one of his calls before. WOW.. code for INSECURE! We met for coffee, I was alarmed because the minute I stepped out of my car he was standing right there which caused me to let out a girlish scream followed by ‘Jesus H Christ!’ . He looked perplexed and handed me a bouquet of 3 red roses (here we go with the roses thing again ladies) which immedately set my alarm off! Coffee went well (once I calmed down from the initial jolt…guys, some women have jobs where they have to always be on their toes, especially if they work in the mental health field.. it is not cool to freak someone out like that, REALLY!) We then proceeded to the mall. He had decided he wanted to be trendier and need my fashionista advice. The entire walk around the mall he was hanging on me and holding my hand..I broke free when I could but it was a bit much and too much on a first date! The entire time he was planning the next month for us and what vacations we would take. He then took me to a movie where he wrapped both of his arms around me the entire movie. I do believe if I would have allowed him to sit in my lap he would have! Despite how successful this man was, I decided that waking up next to this leech every morning would not be worth any amount of money! I found myself wishing I was anywhere but there with him by the end of the movie.He was not creepy, just sad and pathetic so I just didn’t have it in me to be nasty. He kissed me goodnight, and the kiss was by far the worst kiss I had ever had. After that kiss, I was not interested in finding out what else was bad. I said my goodnight and ended this Bollywood movie. No woman wants a man that is clingy man. Now don’t get me wrong, I don’t enjoy a man who can’t commit and is Mr. Cool as a Cucumber, but I will certainly take a cucumber over a man who can’t let me breathe or have my space. As a woman with personal space issues, this was a definite dating DON’T! C’mon guys, at least make me feel like I’m chasing you a little, it’s no fun if the prey is wounded! This man had as much drama as a Bollywood movie!
