Okay, welp had my first bad experience with meeting a new date. Thankfully it wasn't the actual meeting that was the problem, it was his deciding to yell at me later.... when I ignored him, it turned nasty and personal.
Empty Arms
It was a rough weekend. I was feeling pretty blue to begin with--grieving the loss of my little family which has shattered to pieces, leaving just me and my son under one roof. Dunno what precipitated that pity party, but it was going on since Thursday. Friday, Son's father didn't call, text, or come to pick him up. Son was not inclined to make the effort either. I guess he figures that if his father wants him, he'd initiate. Saturday morning was particularly rough because Son had Saturday School---kind of like detention on Saturday, for being tardy to class after PE. Moving fast is not his strong suit ever. Plus, he doesn't wake up and get going easily either. Basically, Saturday was filled with Son's fussing, homework, tears, slamming of doors,and lot's of I-hate-you's. Yeah, pretty miserable all the way around. I think maybe it was a reaction to how he feels about what's happening with his dad. OR not happening. It culminated in Son sobbing in hi...
It probably sprung from his own insecurities. Don't let that stop you from going on more dates (with other singles, of course).
ReplyDeleteHang in there...there are bound to be some not so good ones. I have had both good and bad first dates. Been taking a break from dating cuz of the last 3 bad ones...but not giving up...Just learn from it, keep a smile on your face and move on...you can do it!!!
ReplyDeleteI think you should keep up your 'things I like about being single'. Its what makes me smile at the end of every post, regardless of the topic. Its HOPE, and hope is good!
