Back in October, I went on my last internet date. I met up with this out of my league super hot guy. We decided to meet up at this coffee shop pretty far from my house. It was a nice day so I decided to hoof it the 15 or 20 blocks. Well, that was a really stupid idea. By the time I got there I was sweating.
Awesome.
We meet up and he is quite handsome in real life. Conversation is a bit awkward. I get really shy when a guy I think is really attractive is even in the same room. We just so happened to be sitting by the counter where the coffee shop owner sat.
She was a totally cute girl that was very sweet. Who also joined in on our conversation. And who basically hijacked my date. I realized it was no longer my date when they talked for 10 minutes without me saying a word. I didn't know how to escape this total hell. I just sat there absolutely mortified, horrified, humiliated, and angry all at once. It was by far the longest hour of my entire life.
I left and almost said WHY DONT YOU GO BACK AND ASK HER FOR HER NUMBER HUH?>?!!? Instead I managed to mumble "yup nice to meet you bye."
I walked home completely crushed. I really have no idea why. I guess I felt like for the zillionth time in my life I lost out to the super tiny cute indie rock girl. I might like that music but I'll never look the part, I'll never be short, and I'll certainly never be petite even if I got down to 100 pounds just because I am simply not built that way. It was just disappointing to see how easily I let shallow guys get to me.
LUCKILY, he wasn't really my type anyway. It took me a day to realize it, but we honestly had very little in common. Whatever hipster, go ride your bike.

Dating Catastrophes is about those of us that have been unlucky in love but can still find the humor in it. Living in the city of Philadelphia, which has made lists for being one of the fattest and ugliest cities in America, doesn't make dating any easier. Oh, did I mention that the girl/guy single ratio is way off? After experiencing dating woes for a number of years, I finally decided to write it out and share – so the rest of the world can laugh along with my bad dates.
