A work collegue was quite excited about the upcoming works party, (it was on Friday 18th) the reason? He had THE perfect date for me and will introduce me to him at the party.Now this guy does not know anything about me (except that I am single) we have never spoken about our private lives. So I turn up on Friday night all booted and suited and see my collegue waiting at the top of the stairs of the venue, he's smiling and waving, I go over to him and introduce my date to him.......... Later on in the evening he brings his victim over to my table, there is an akward moment as he fumbles for the right words of introduction, that over, he then says "I'll leave you two to it"

I had already tipped my date off about the intended "event" I look across at my date who is trying his best not to laugh and going red in the face, the "new beau" pulls up a chair and begins to chat.............. We soon discovered that my work collegue had told this guy "all about me" During the course of the conversation with "new guy" we established that we both work in the same field (education) New guy then pauses, and fumbles, "Um, I am not sure what Terry (name changed) said to you about me but I have not dated a Black woman in a very long time" My collegue, as I've stated knows nothing about me and assumed because I am Black that I would instantly click with his friend. I have never dated a Black man, not because I would not, but because I have never been asked out by one.Don't you just hate it when folks find you that "perfect" partner?

that sucks,, never been introduced to a 'perfect' partner.

My meetings have usually just been 'kewl guys' or 'nice guys' that I 'might' hit it off with.

i had the perfect date once......but she deflated about an hour later

Thankfully no one I know has the nerve to try that. Awkward evening.

It would not have been so bad had my workmate not said he had THE perfect guy for me. My date and I found it quite amusing afterwards.I will be letting my workmate know a little about me when we get back to work after the holidays. I noticed he made himself scarce after he had paraded his prize bull to me.

And then some, new guy avoided me on the dance floor for a little while but decided to show them how the Lambada was done but needed a dance partner who was capable.Me and the Lambada?

Sounds like a night of winners....

Oh it was, I very nearly peed myself trying to keep the laughter from consuming my entire being. I think the next time I will wear depends and just let go when faced with such a situation again!

OMG,,,,YOU almost went out on me!!!!!!!!





I have only had one set-up unseen date in my life,,,and it went so well,,,I dated her for six years,,,,
But five was spent in question on keeping my sanity,,,wink,lol


Bonnie,,,,you are truly,,,,BLESSED with beauty,,,,and a brain to match,,,,,and OMG,,,you would be
sooooooooo in trouble with how to get rid of me if I was there close to ya,,,lol FACT!!!!!



YOU could teach me anything and everything,,,everyday.
I would be your BEST student,,,,,,and,,,,,class-act-clown,,wink

T, you know I would never renege on our deal. I will and have put others aside for you and will continue to do so............ Love me, Love my T.


I look forward to having you in class.

Your friend's only assumption is that anyone would be incredibly lucky to be graced by your presence. I happen to agree.

Your only misfortune is that your friend was acting on the obvious for friend "2" and perhaps misread "you".

Beach honey......Now, THERE'S a real gentleman. I get misread nearly all the time,I think my new year's resolution will be to wear a sandwichboard stating my likes/dislikes.

I'm sure you'd make it look good!
1st because I'm sure you have good taste in shoes...or should I say "boots"

Still doing that by the way?

2nd..because you just WOULD!



*footnote* - perhaps sandwichboards would be great for us "all"

ie..... (I'm very sarcastic and whimsical.....I meant no harm...I was just trying to engage in wordplay...etc...etc.

I recently bought a pair of these do you think they will go well with my sandwichboard? Mine are of the shiny patent sort..........

If you wear nothing else and I can catch a profile.

sorry for being so "typical"

I will be wearing this along with the sandwichboard and a dab of perfume.
