Technical difficulties
I have been trying all evening to pick one of my experiences to write about; this sucks. When i wrrite i just close my eyes and type, this is not working for me today. My laptop is acting up and the snowstorm outside has me feeling a bit lonely. I'm new at this blogging not sure if its kind of like a journal but i have alot to say once i get rid of this mental block. With that said, goodnight and sweet dreams! Until next time!!

That dude!
My first online date was with this dude I met on Myspace. We talked on the phone and messaged back and forth for a few months before I agreed to meet him in person. This man had a voice like Barry White. Well during these conversations he told me he was 41, had 4 children and was staying with a friend after some issues with the father of his youngest child who was 7. He worked at Eden Park Nursing Home, loved to draw and we had some decent conversations. I would later learn that the only thing he did NOT lie about was his name!
I drove to meet him in Hyde Park. I saw this dude walking towards my car and I immediately thought, "I'm being punked, WTF is that?" But, at the time I had a quick conversation with myself and remembered I was a child of God and I shouldn't judge anyone by their looks. So, this date would take place at the Roosevelt Mansion, in public, but nowhere near anyone I knew. I decided that as long as I didn't look him in the eye or do anything that made him smile, then I could be objective. I can now look back and say people really do crazy things out of desperation and sometimes I truly am TOO nice.
As luck would have it, as I went to drop this dude off, my Dad called with an emergency. This meant that I would have to drive with dude to Pk...As I pull into the complex, who comes running towards my car but 4 of my children. Now, I have never introduced my childen to anyone I wasn't considering getting serious with so this was not cool. Dude took it upon himself to introduce himseslf to then and my Dad! I should have known then that this wouldn't end well. And it didn't.
After dropping him off and being met by his extended family (yeah he had apperently called and had everyone come meet me) I decided to try to look past the fact that he was just, ugly. I made excuses as to why we couldn't hang out again but kept talking to him over the phone. After about 2 weeks I received a call from his Aunt, she wanted to know if she could claim some of my children on my taxes...and then she began telling me about how she was going to be putting him out since he hadn't yet found a job after living with them for more than a year.
See, he had told me about his job, and co-workers, his work schedule, and experiences at work..all LIES. I remember feeling shocked and confused about how someone would or could come up with such an elaborate series of lies, but I needed to confront him about this.
In short, after calling me every name in the book and telling me how "lucky I was to have him even talk to someone like me" I ended up having to threaten to call the cops because he became a stalker. Left 47 voicemail msgs on my phone and even left notes on my car begging me to forgive him for the lies.
I have decided to remove this dude from my memory, until this moment..and after posting this it will go back out into the "I had a stroke, so I forgot" part of my brain.
The truth was, he was 47 with 6 children, 3 of which were all under the age of 3. He had warrants for past child support and I chocked this off as my one good deed to society.
Until my next post, my lovelies...I bid you goodnight! Please leave comments

Names have been changed to protect the, "innocent"
Welcome to my blog about my experiences dating. I have been single for a little over 8 years now and have dated a bit. After meeting a few guys at clubs/bars, I moved onto online dating...and that's where the fun begins.
You probably wonder about the title of my blog??
Well, yup I dated a Pastor, and his pursuit to "prove he was the best" and some of his anticts prompted me to share my storie. While I can laugh about these experiences now, they were not so funny at the time.
