Today I had a second date with a guy who I made the mistake of saying he could drive. He has a really little car and when we get on the freeway he's tailgating an SUV. It made me nervous, so I told him. He went on and on about the 2 second rule and how it's not possible given the way people drive these days and that there would be three more cars in front of him if he did that. I kept telling him it was about a safety issue, but he thought it was funny and said he hadn't been in an accident in 15 years. So I got a bit *****y and said I don't give a ****, that I don't want to be the first one. He continued to drive like a maniac (in my estimation). We finally get to our destination, and I told him I don't think safety is something funny. At that point, he told me "we can just leave and go back on the side roads, because I'm getting really irritated with this conversation."

How did the rest of the date go and the time before the driving incident? Do you feel like maybe seeing him again? I mean he did offer to take the back roads when you two would leave, sounds like he was at least trying to come to a deal or some kind. Some men just don't like being told how to drive or anything else in that matter. Was awesome you let him know though at the time it was happening. Maybe if you want to see him again offer to drive or take a cab in a joking manner to him that you meant how you felt about hit but there are others options and your open to them. Hmm?

You are the keeper of your own destiny. I truly cant see myself enjoying the tailgate of an SUV crammed down my throat either.
If he doesn't consider your safety as important, he surely isn't worthy of a 3rd date. If he wants to risk his life, do it on his time, he does not have to risk yours!! kudos to you for sticking up for yourself |

I went out of town with someone that did that. It drove me nuts. My nerves were frazzled after 10 hours of that. He tailgated the whole time on the highway. I told him that it made me very uncomfortable. He said that it was to keep other cars from getting in front of him. Like that would make getting to our destination faster. He wouldn't stop it even thought it bothered me.  |

So i guess you are waiting for someone to tell you that, that is a sign of a person that has no respect for your opinion. I guess he is a keeper. Or have you fallen in love already

And why is it that guys are always in such a DAMN hurry to arrive at their destination??? It's like it's a competition...I remember my uncle's comparing their "times" during the holidays..."I made it here in 6 hours 23 minutes...that's 15 minutes faster than last year!" WHF fellas??

Or have you fallen in love already And to answer the other questions, the date went as well as it could have when I was as irritated as all get out. I ordered a beer at 11:30 a.m.! And he acted like nothing had happened. All lovey-dovey, putting his hand on my shoulder and ****. There will be no third date. |
