DOUBLE TROUBLE
Today’s contributor ends up on a double date she never saw coming
Recently, I had been out of luck in the dating field. Every guy I met was gay, taken, or just plain weird. One day I met an attractive, intelligent, funny guy who seemed to have all the qualities I was looking for. He asked for my number, then asked me to dinner that Friday. I was more than excited and said yes.
When I arrived at the restaurant, he politely greeted me and took me to a table. After we ordered drinks, he excused himself and went to the bathroom. He seemed to be gone for a while, but he came back just in time to order himself a salad. After chatting for a few minutes, he excused himself again. This bizarre disappearing act repeated throughout the meal. What was he doing? Did he have a nervous bladder? Was he powdering his nose?
I decided play detective and follow him the next time he got up. I snuck behind him, expecting him to duck into the men’s room. Instead, I saw him sit down with a different girl at another table. I was furious, so I sat down and explained to her that I was currently on a date with him. Fuming, she informed me that she was also on a date with him. The two of us immediately got up and left the bastard, leaving him with zero girls and two bills.
