I did not agree to go on a blind date knowing little to nothing about the person.
I did not not talk to him on the phone for less than three minutes only 20 minutes before meeting him for lunch.
I did not give this stranger a hug upon meeting him for the first time.
I did not admit within the first five minutes that I work at a church. Normal people don't talk about religion on a first date-that would be taboo and definitely not PC.
I definitely did not order a burger sans bread or cheese. I did not try to avoid explaining my food allergies. Upon explaining them my date did not try to comfort me by saying, "ya, it took me forever to figure out I was allergic to wool." I was not laughing hysterically in my mind. It was absolutely, most definitely not funny.
I was not relieved when he didn't offer to pray for lunch. The last boy I dated never prayed for dinner and it was never awkward. I definitely pray for every meal, snack and beverage regardless of whose company I am in. I'm pretty sure he does too. That's what all good christians do, right?
I did not share my major in college (religion). That would be awkward and potentially make for an awkward conversation with someone not prepared for what they were getting into.
I did not find out he practices a very, very different religion.
I did not admit that I secretly really want a bunny.
We absolutely did not end our date by going to look at bunnies at the pet store.
And I certainly would never point at and pet the bunnies oohing and awing about how cute and fluffy they are. I also did not share that I am really excited about the prospect of naming a bunny.
I did not not know his last name by the time I got home.
I did not make my roommate look him up on Facebook to find out.
So funny! You should link up with MckMama's "Not me Monday!" Now I'm curious...what was his very very different religion??
