Topic: i went on a date

ex-lawyer, a bit older than me. went to an art opening (he made a purchase), a wine tasting, had dinner (i don't really eat) at a great local dive (fun and atmospheric), then on to a local club for live jazz and blues. so he says, when you're with me, i pay for everything. needless to say, when we got to the bar he dodged to the men's room forcing me to pay for the first round of drinks. when he returned, he said again, ...when you're with me, you never have to worry about paying. what can you say, but, oh, thank you. it's a nice thing. the day/evening ran smoothly and he invited me to see his home which had just been remodeled as it was on my way back home. he didn't seem like an axe murderer, had good references and was mostly polite, so i agreed. giving me a tour of the place (he has remarkably good taste), he stops in the master bathroom, smiles, pauses and says while slightly swaying back and forth, THIS is the shower you could be using one day . i have to laugh here.. im not trying to be unappreciative, but what? i mean, if the toilet was cast in solid gold, the shower tiled in diamond and the toilet paper spun by imported silkworms, was i supposed to start peeing in my pants to get in there? WHAT is he selling? i'm not going to pick on lawyers or persons of a certain ancestry or religion, but it was not unlike another date with another lawyer where he showed me the workout facility in his condo and said, THIS is the treadmill you could be using. it's eerie, but anyway, let's just say i didn't get these dates by being unclean or unfit.. i could go on about odd little things that happened and were said as i toured the house and some strange things i noticed, but i guess i'm wondering if i go on date no. 2. he's calling. i'm thinking no-ish. it's kinda a shame. what do you say when there's no flaring disagreement about you. or is it me? guess something turned me off, but all in all, it was a nice DATE.

but if something turned you off... 90% of all communication is non verbal. And 90% of your thinking is subconcious. Sounds like you picked up on something you didn't like and your subconcious is trying to tell you

Sounds like you picked up on something you didn't like and your subconcious is trying to tell you perhaps it was the part where he turned on the projector and began dancing and flailing his arms up and down to a club scene in some foreign indian film splayed wall size or the part where it was explained which of the bathrooms belonged to the cat not sure
