Can Bouzouki MelodieS and GallonS of WhinE... SavE A DatE... ðĪâ
Can Bouzouki MelodieS and GallonS of WhinE... SavE A DatE... ðĪâ Her brilliant smile and those twinkling eyes had been the alluring snare. I have no CLUE what she saw in me. But there we were, anchored at a vibrant Greek bistro over on Montreal's Fairmount Street. Thin beams of porcelain light framed every table. We sat cloaked in warm shadows, over at the back of that cheerful room. Bouzouki music weaved lively rhythms and bounced off pastel murals as our black-tied waiter ambled over and raised his pen to his pad. SHE, paused her incoherent rant, and with slurred consideration â announced her order. "I'll take the 'Seafood Pikilia' and a tiny 'Greek Salad' with a small bowl of tzatziki, on the side. Oh, and I'll have another bottle of white wine. But don't serve the meal just yet." Then, she turned to me and flashed those luminous teeth; I grinned. "You want some too? Ok â TWO bottles of white wine," she concluded. And THAT'S how our first date had evolved. I excused myself and headed towards the bathroom but veered into the kitchen. (*listen, I'm not a total asshole, but I'd had enough.*) I waved to the cooks, laid a couple of twenties on the stainless steel counter, and walked out the back door. Slipping through that dark alley, I turned towards the street and reached into my blazer for my phone. For fuck's sake! In my haste, I'd left THAT precious hardware on the leather bench seat â back at the restaurant. I stopped in my tracks and turned around. She DID have dazzling incisors and those gleaming eyeballs. But there was more whine coming; a lot more. *Ugh* Second chances rarely work â or do they? (*addendum : so what do you want me to say? that things worked out; they didn't. it was a peaceful failure. *) ... is there another way to look at it Going Too Fucking Far NEW Blog Features RevealeD O O A Foolproof Method Posted Over on that NEW site O O |

A warm smile and sparkling eyes â are the first traits attracting me. THAT, and a quick wit. I think there's always hope for a second chance if there's some mutual attraction. ð (*if she has a nice bum, it's a bonus.*) The 'deal breakers' for me are; a conflicting political POV, and a fickle food veto. NO second chances on THOSE! ðŪ ... is there another way to look at it Going Too Fucking Far NEW Blog Features RevealeD O O A Foolproof Method Posted Over on that NEW site O O

My deal-breakers are no sense of humour, poor body hygiene and right-wing politics!

One of the last people I was strongly attracted to, had great conversational skills. Lots of give and take, a good listener, and convincingly curious about me and what made me tick. Too often it seems like people fall into one of the other extremes - either so reticent that it's like pulling teeth to get them talking, or one of those nonstop talkers where you can't get a word in edgewise.

Not when they are whining my friend, be it White or Merlot....Run for your life..xoxo Deal breakers for me is no sexual chemistry or any at all , No sense of Humour and one who whines..xoxo

Yep, I can see that. Unfortunately I can see that clearly. Funny, but teeth strike me before eyes do. Although, I don't know about you, but with that BUG and masks, I was evaluating people from the bridge of the nose â up. Imagine the surprise when that mask is lifted? You make such a good point. Implants are the latest craze. As long as I don't end up looking like one of those old people jutting jaw, with the oversized teeth of a twenty year old. Hmmm... Anyway...

Sounds like my last meet before the Pandammit....... She had been at the restaurant awhile before I got there, three empty's on the table..... Two more while we waited for our food. Then she toppled out of her chair, the waiter caught her! Ah..this happens often., he says! Hmmmmm, didn't see that in her profile...... What do u do, the wait staff had it handled I left $40 on the table... Having to drag them to the room kinda takes the edge off.... As I got in my truck I heard EMS turning the corner......

When you were laying out the 20s I thought you were paying them to rush the meal to the table, when I read you were leaving I literally "laughed out loud". I would never have the nerve.

HA on the Romans!! my deal breaker are the folks on here demanding a pic swap. i'm a chatter. not that i don't have photos.... you've read enough of my blog so you've seen them when i share them. but i will be honest and up front that i don't pic swap. and then the demands come... Sherman and i do not have the same political views. i just smile and nod.

A manâs overall appearance will catch my attention, especially a twinkle in his eyes and an engaging smile. Turn-offs are the inability to speak engagingly & intelligently and poor manners.

I meet one guy from here and the whole entire time I was trying to have a conversation with him at the restaurant, he was on his cell phone the whole entire time. I just looked at him and I stopped talking. If I had my cell phone that night I would have called a friend to pick me up. What a jerk. He must have a good sense of humor, good kisser especially French, a nice arse My dislikes, cell phone, a small dick, not at all passionate, smoker, a Drunk I could go on and in but I will leave it at that

Yeah. I gave up before we got to the finish line. If sex isn't achieved and you didn't call it a date, what do you call it? ðĪ Do that too often, people recognize that as being , "Friendzoned".

For me, dealbreakers can be divided into two categories: 1) She seems like a good person and is probably quite interesting but there is no spark there. We can be friends but I'm pretty instantly aware there isn't a possibility of anything else. 2) She is not a good person and I can't spend the hour or so it will take to have a polite meal without it being too painful to contemplate.
