The movie Blind Side is a fantastic movie. If you haven't seen it yet, I strongly recommend that you do. He picked me up and we went to the movie. Since it was later in the evening, we decided to not have dinner, just the movie. He chose the movie, I didn't know anything about it.
We got a small popcorn and drinks. Went in and searched for our seats. The movie began. Oh Sandra Bullock is in it. Okay, it just maybe a good movie after all. The movie begins to play and he begins to talk. I obviously can't hear what he says so I just say "Oh really?!" That is a pretty basic response to just about anything. Don't worry, I have plenty more. So if you are on a date sometime and you hear some of those ambiguous responses, you know your date isn't listening.
He continues to talk, and talk, and talk, and talk through the movie. I realised if I was going to be able to follow the movie, I would have to completely ignore him. Finally he shut his big trap. I am not sure if he did so because I was ignoring him or if it was because the person behind him began kicking his seat.
Then, he tries to hold my hand. Now, if you are in a dating situation where they is common or mutual interest, then try to hold her hand. Since I am very polite (most of the time), I let him hold my hand for a few minutes. Then I pretended to scratch my face (with that hand) and put my hand on my lap. A few minutes later he tries to hold my hand while on my lap. If I were on a date with someone that I liked or was interested in, I would have been thinking like 'oh bonus, alright,... Cool.' However, I was on a date with someone I was definitely not getting good vibes about. So instead I am thinking 'crap, this sucks, now what? Now I am going to get his cooties!' I quickly moved my hand to the arm rest (still allowing him to hold it) instead of on my lap. Ten minutes later, I moved my hand again which he literally moved with it and continued to hold my hand. Holy crap! A few minutes later, I pulled my hand away simply stating, "My hand is getting sore." Then I pretended to exercise my hand moving it around, just to make it more believable. Take a hint pal.
We finished the movie and he dropped me off. Then when we arrive, he parks the car and turns it off. That's weired, did I invite him to stay? Funny how I don't remember that conversation. I looked at him, "Um, thanks for the movie. It was a really great movie." His reply was a bit unexpected, "Yeah, it was really good, do you want to go again?" I had to ask as I raised one eyebrow, "To the same movie?" He replied, "Yeah, I mean if you liked it that much, I want to see it again." Taken a bit off guard by either a sweet gesture or a stupid one (I can't figure out which), I just said, "I... um... well...I..., I am not sure. Let me think about...well, I have to look at my schedule. I'm pretty busy the next couple of weeks." Yeah, okay so a blind man could have seen through that but I mean, he completely took me off guard by that. Who would expect that?"
Ooohhhhh, the next day he calls. He is so mad and just throwing a temper tantrum. What the Hell? I answer the phone to an attitude the size of Utah. "I don't like it that you wouldn't hold my hand at the movie last night." Get over it buddy. Can you believe this guy? He continues, "It's not like we are fighting." Okay, I had to jump in. Um, we are not even going out. How could we possibly be fighting?" Fighting? I barely know this guy. The more I know of him, the less I want to know. He continues with, "I don't think we should go to the movie again. I don't think we would get along." Uh huh? And what? I never wanted to go with him anywhere. I just responded, "I think your right. It doesn't seem like we would have fun together." Then hoping he would get the hint (seems like he finally got the hint I didn't want to hold his hand), I said, "Thanks for calling though." He must have been taken by surprise now because the phone got really quiet. "okay..." he said very slowly. I wanted to end the conversation, "Well, take it easy, good luck." and I hung up the phone. Creep. That is a first, I never had someone call up the next day and throw a fit and try to have an argument. I really think that was his goal. I think inside, he is one of those people who try to cause problems and chaos just for the excitement. Don't need any of that! What a dork. lol
