Was that the actuary guy? “
Sorry, I am first seeing this today – No it was not Actuary Guy. It was Cheap & Thoughtless Date Guy. And no, I did not call my dad – it was way too late to disturb him, if I had another safe way of getting home. Ironically, this was a shidduch for which I never gave my approval. The person who set us up, called to give me a heads up that the guy was calling because she already gave him my number. There were a number of very pertinent reasons why I would NEVER have accepted this guy as a shidduch possibility, had she spoken to me first. He was a few years younger than I (I was 23, so you do the math), his religious hashkafa was off the wall and very much to the Left, he had no job, was NOT interested in dating seriously, which at age 23 I most assuredly WAS, and he was just not a thoughtful person. But I believed strongly in not embarrassing someone who was trying to do me a favor, and I figured it’s just a couple of hours of my time, at worst. Every truly uncomfortable date I ever had, was the result of someone giving out my number without speaking to me first.
Oh yeah, and THAT’S why a girl should always carry a purse.
