Dude totally bailed on me again. I did get a shower and put on clothes and even waited patiently for several hours... didn't know what time he got off work so I thought.. ok I'll be ready by 6pm .. truth is I didn't get my pants all the way on until like 6:30ish, but I did have one leg in my pants for an hour and a half before that... Don't judge.. lol you don't know my struggles. At any rate, I was fully ready to go by 7 with all my clothes on and I got really bored of waiting by 8pm. I questioned when was a good time and some friends suggest 9pm. I do not go out so I don't know what time places close and at 8:40 I got back into my pajamas and said skip it. Dude never contacted me after he said he'd call me after he got off work. He still hasn't called me.. perhaps he has a 4 day shift?
This is one of the many reasons I do not date.
I call what he has done a cruddy (I use a different word) move.
barely outta my shell and he kicks me. Nice. -sarcasm- But it's stuff like this that make it more difficult for the next guy. And guys wonder why women have baggage - drama - or issues.
Being single is so much easier really.
Edit: POSITIVE NOTE. I prayed to God he'd make it easy for me to figure out if this was the guy he intended on me to have. AND God did just that. This was not the guy that's intended for me to have. Praise God for making things blatantly obvious for the idiots of this world, like me.

i know i came in the conversation late but am i the only one who thought his reference to James 1: 17 romantic?
James 1
[SUP]17 [/SUP]Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning
either his offer to give her dinner was his way of giving as God gives, or he is alluding that SHE is a gift from Heaven....
maybe I'm just reading too much into it.
I don't think dating is a chore, but then I never thought much about dating.
I always focused on getting to know a person and seeing if we could be friends before taking that step of "Does God want me to spend my life with this person?"
If a guy referred me to James 1:17, I'd ask if they were imply that I was the gift or if they were the gift? lol
it would make them discuss what they meant by the comment. perhaps they will say marriage is a gift from God? or love?
who knows, but I hope you both find someone to love as much as God loves you.

He said he'd call and he didn't.

well you can look at it as a blessing in disguise.
you don't really want to date and get emotionally invested in a guy who can't keep his word.
however, getting dressed up can be fun even if you just do it for yourself and God.
i tend to get depressed if I stay at home alone too long. sometimes (before i was married) I would go to a bookstore or coffee shop just to get out of the house. Or call up some friends and meet up to just hang out and talk (or in some cases listen as they talk)
I've found you can't sit around waiting for people to call you, because those people you are hoping to call are waiting for you to call them. someone has to make the first move. I pray that God gives you courage, wisdom and joy.
