Worst Dating Experience Ever [View All]

[AquariDem]

It happened a month or so ago, but just thought I'd share it with you guys. This summer I met this cute woman at the local gay bar (I have come to realize the bar scene is not for me), and we'd talked for a while. She seemed more interested in my disability than me (she happens to teach students with the same condition), but I thought she sure sounded genuinely interested in me.

Anyway, the months roll by, and then one day I get this note at my on-campus job. It turned out that she graduated from the same college I go to, and was interested in getting together with me. I e-mailed her and said I'd definitely be interested. I was totally happy. A few days later, I get an e-mail from her saying to meet her at such-and-such a place, and that she might have her kids with her. I'd heard nothing about kids until this moment. I started to feel something wasn't quite right, but I met her at the coffee shop anyway.

So she shows up with one of her kids and her girlfriend. During the interminable hour or so I was with them, I felt like some kid who was just tagging along. I didn't get the sense that she saw me as an equal, and she kept on "interviewing" me about how my disability affected my education, etc. What a day!
