Constantly Texting
We met outside of one of my favorite restaurants. She was texting on her phone, shook my hand, and barely looked up. We get seated, all the while still on her phone texting. So I asked her normal date things to only get “yeahs” and eventually a “hold on a second” after my 3rd attempt at striking up any sort of conversation. What the heck was that? So I asked if everything was OK. After the “hold on a second” comment, I figured something bad might’ve happened. She responded by saying her friends are a priority. I didn’t know what to say.
I was kind of taken back, our waitress walks up right after that, and she cuts her off as she’s greeting us with a huffy “finally!” Then she barks her drink order at her as rudely as possible and goes right back to her phone. Right then, I decided that enough was enough. I asked for water, said “excuse me,” and got up after a minute of silence. I found the waitress, gave her a 20, said I was leaving, and apologized. Quickest date of my life. All in 10-15 minutes max. I’ve never met anyone close to that rude on a date. I always tell myself I got all my bad dates in one. Here’s to hoping that’s true!!
