I never had a date end quite like this...

M GO BLUE!!! · 02-23-2008, 07:45 PM

I'm not sure if this was a date or not. Met up with a woman for coffee and a movie. It was a first meeting. At times I thought it was going ok, at others I felt that she was disappointed. After the film she wanted to head to Grand Central to catch a train home. At GC I said I would see her to her train and she said "that's ok," but to be a gentleman I said it was no problem. There were still several minutes left before the train was scheduled to leave, and even if she did miss it they run every half hour. As we're walking she just says "I got to run bye" and breaks running. I was just standing there in disbelief. (Guess I'm not seeing her again!)

st.cronin · 02-23-2008, 07:47 PM

You're supposed to run after them and tackle them to the ground when they do that. Don't you know anything?

Lathum · 02-23-2008, 07:47 PM

you went to the movies on a first date?

k0ruptr · 02-23-2008, 07:49 PM

ouch. you got moded. that sucks.

At her suggestion. It was an independent film she wanted to see.

sabotai · 02-23-2008, 07:53 PM

She actually took off running? Damn, I didn't think that kind of thing actually happened....

And yeah, I'd scratch her name off your list of "2nd date prospects".

M GO BLUE!!! · 02-23-2008, 07:55 PM

...at least I got to see the film.

When I got to the coffee shop to meet her I was looking around and saw a woman I thought might be her (didn't get a good pic of her.) I passed by twice before going to the second floor to look for her and the woman was gone. I figured she split when she saw me. Then I saw this woman crossing the street and thought "too bad I'm not meeting this one!" That turned out to be her...

The strange part about the pic is looking at it again it doesn't look to be of the same woman. She was also about three inches taller than described!

Izulde · 02-23-2008, 07:58 PM

Independent film + faked out pic + running = mental issues chick.

Winner = you.

Maple Leafs · 02-23-2008, 08:00 PM

You misheard. She said "I've got the runs". Now it all makes sense.

Schmidty · 02-23-2008, 08:49 PM

Maybe she's secretly an FOFCer, and once she actually met you, she realized you're the guy who posts all of the relationship threads, and decided she wanted a person less in touch with his feminine side.

Mustang · 02-23-2008, 08:51 PM

She said she had to run and then ran

+1 for honesty at least.

k0ruptr · 02-23-2008, 08:52 PM

was she an Ohio St. fan?

Arles · 02-23-2008, 08:53 PM

You may want to make sure your "axe-murderer of the week" membership card doesn't fall out of your wallet on the next date. Just a thought...

Young Drachma · 02-23-2008, 09:15 PM

Well at the point that she said that's okay and it was the first date, was probably the clue that she wanted to be on her way for good. At least you got it out of the way now and saved yourself the trouble of calling her again or something.

Raiders Army · 02-23-2008, 09:22 PM

You should stalk her now just to freak her out.

ColtCrazy · 02-23-2008, 09:37 PM

This is nothing. I had a first date once where
1) her purse got stolen
2) my car suddenly spews smoke out of the heather, causing us to either be surrounded by fog or freeze
3) a guy walking by us yaks and it lands on her shoes

And this was our first date after we decided to go to the prom together. Needless to say we didn't stay together long at the prom

MrDNA · 02-23-2008, 10:45 PM

On the bright side, at least it was the first time a date ended with a woman running away from you.

gkb · 02-24-2008, 01:51 AM

Well you at least have a good story to tell from the date...

RendeR · 02-24-2008, 07:44 AM

Always knew those mi-shit-gan fans were freaks

Sorry you had a lousy end to your date man, better luck next time!

SteveMax58 · 02-24-2008, 08:06 AM

This sounds like a situation begging for a Sean Connery slap(not a full-on pimpsmack...thats only when you get serious). This is what women are really wanting in these types of situations.

I'm not sure why there is such a stigma attached to this, but it is the right thing to do...for both of you.

CraigSca · 02-24-2008, 08:09 AM

She was ugly anyway.

Klinglerware · 02-24-2008, 09:17 AM

So, what movie did you see?

molson · 02-24-2008, 09:47 AM

Is it possible she just saw her train coming and ran?

Obviously, if it was a great date she wouldn't mind hanging out and chatting for another half hour for the next train, but maybe there's an explanation here.

Well, one possible explanation is that trains at Grand Central do fill up several minutes before they leave. People do run to beat the herd to the end of the platform (where the cars are less likely to have filled up). So, maybe she really did need to high tail it. Trains do leave every half hour, but perhaps her destination is a stop that gets skipped at times? For example, a New Haven bound train leaves GC every 30 minutes, but only every other train stops at my destination. So in reality, it is a 60 minute wait for the next train. After rush hour, the timetable reverts to an off-peak schedule. So depending on when I get to the train station, I could now have a 2 hour wait, or I may even have to wait for the last train of the night (which nobody wants to be on since it stops at every station)...

Maybe she wasn't into him, maybe she has a definitive idea about what constitutes the end of a first date, maybe she's playing hard to get, or maybe she just needed to catch a train. Who knows?

Isn't dating fun?

Noop · 02-24-2008, 11:57 AM

I never had one run away from me but I have had one show up who was totally different then the picture she sent. Needless to say I told her "No"

BYU 14 · 02-24-2008, 12:00 PM

Ouch....

I am sure this probably just saved you undue drama down the road........Next time wear your pants on the first date though.

This reminds me. I had a first date with a girl years ago and we went to see "Platoon." Needless to say, we never went out again.

Should have did what this guy did.. very Terminator-esque...

hxxp://www.cnn.com/2008/US/02/24/car.brawl.ap/index.html

HAVERSTRAW, New York (AP) -- A man fighting with his girlfriend clung to a car roof and punched her through the window as she drove more than a mile on a busy road, hitting several other cars, police said.

Both were hurt in the brawl Saturday and were arrested, police Sgt. Manfredo Figueroa said.

The man, William Kremer, apparently jumped onto the car and held on as girlfriend Stacey Sperrazza wove along Route 202 with the car's air bag inflated, police said. She eventually stopped the car and hit him with it, police said.

Sperrazza, 37, of Stony Point, was arrested on a felony charge of reckless endangerment. Kremer, 42, of Haverstraw, was arrested on a misdemeanor assault charge.

No telephone numbers could be found for the two. Police had no immediate information early Sunday on whether they had lawyers.

He was treated for a foot injury, she for eye and head wounds, police said.

Lathum · 02-24-2008, 02:28 PM

You should see her in person - it's even creepier! We are from the same town (Duluth, GA) and right after everything happened, I would see her everywhere...restaurants, the grocery store, she was pumping gas next to me once. I haven't seen her in a while though, I'm guessing she moved away.

Sorry about your date M, I'm sure it was a blessing in disguise. You seem to be a great guy and will find Ms. Right eventually.

Man, I hate it when I want to wait for a train in peace and even say "it's okay, go ahead" and the person that took me there insists on waiting like they're doing me some favor! So instead of me reading a book in peace, we both have to sit there in awkward silence. What more can a person say to get rid of you? If she wanted you to stay, she would have said "great!" when you offered.

Granted, it's usually my dad dropping me off at the train station in these situations, and we're all awkward silences, but it's probably still applicable to social situations.

I had a first date where we went to see "Pulp Fiction". Yeah, I'm pretty sure that was our only date too.

WheelsVT · 02-26-2008, 01:22 PM

In HS I took a first date to see "Mr. Wrong". Add to that my lack of moves meant we spent the whole movie in silence not even holding hands. Then on the way home in the family van (hey, at least I had a license) I got pulled over for speeding (no more driver's license). Then while her parents invited me in for desert she ran to her room and called her best friend to tell her how awful the date was... I know this b/c her best friend is now my wife.
