Well at least he used his phone call to let you know he wasn't going to make it rather than just leave you waiting for him.

That counts for something, right??
LOL!

Guy #1 was a musician and smoked... two deal breakers for me, yet I fell for him anyway and he drove me nuts (and NOT in a good way) for months.

Guy #2 had a phobia of all small animals... a very serious phobia of them. I have two cats. I was impressed that he did as well as he did around them for as long as he did, but I should have known that it wouldn't work out long-term. Oh yeah, and he smoked, too, but lied about it to me. NO man goes through that much Febreeze!

And of course there was the guy who lived in a trailer down by the river.

Oh! And the homeless guy! And not just any homeless guy... a guy who got kicked out of the homeless shelter for fighting! I SWEAR he looked normal!!!

I guess that's 4 guys.... I could list more, but I try to block some of them out.

I asked this lonely girl I met at a bar to dance and she agreed to it since she thought I was cute and all (yeah I know I am not really a bar fly myself but my friends dared me to ask her) I got her number and called her about two days later to meet up for some drinks. She said yes.

At the place I get a call from her on my cell phone and it's from the county jail. Turns out she was picked up for prostitution!!!

Ex: "I am not sure anymore if I am in love with you, but while I decide, you can date other people and still come up here on the weekends to see the kids and you can sleep on the couch."

Me: "Uh no, if I am not sleeping in your bed, I can sleep in my own bed every night for free."

Buh-bye! Not only that but she has not re-paid me $$ she owes me and won't talk to me (even though she said we would still be friends!) probably because of that!

So I will see her in court!

A boyfriend after high school started wearing make-up. He was a musician and it was the late 80s, so I didn't think too much of it even though when we met he was realy clean cut looking. Anyway, lets just say the make-up thing was not to go with his musician look. He started to become obsessed with my clothes. As in, HE wanted to wear them! In public. And he started acting like a woman. It took me a while to figure it out, but the confusion probably had something to do with his drug problem. Either that or the drug problem added to his confusion. Or both!

Back in the day....there was the "winner" who conveniently showed up late on moving day stating he had stayed up late watching a cricket game the night before. It was not too much after that incident that his real intentions came out....he needed to be sponsored to stay in the country...I referred him to a charity ; )

Watch for EH matches who are pictured holding a wine glass or beer bottle unless your must have is 'drinks daily'. I went out with a guy who consumed 9 drinks in 3 hours and could still walk and talk. He was a true microsomal weight lifter. Spare me.

*brought handcuffs on a first date.

*lied about his marital status and admitted an attraction to the high school girls he taught...again, on a first date.

*shared with me his near suicide attempt after his third divorce...first date.

*told me some obviously delusional story about having been in Special Forces and being forced out due to a black ops mission gone bad...claimed he was later assigned to guard duty at the Pentagon where he shot a General who did not produce proper ID. First date. Then proceeded to attempt to stalk and threaten me when I refused to see him again.

These were all men who sincerely wanted to continue to see me and seemed confused and a bit hurt when I declined.

We had an amazing first month of being together, I let my heart out too fast after a month of getting out of a 2 year relationship.
This took me 2 years of our relationship to figure him out...let the "RED FLAGS," begin!
1.)After a month of going on dates and declaring ourself a couple and then all of a sudden,he needs a break...no calls,nothing.
2.)Says him and his ex are friends,I come along some disturbing messeges and numerous phone calls, yet I still hold on.
3.)I am not jelous by any means, but come on...texting and calling everyday and hiding out from me, I just wanted the truth at this point about him and his ex.
4.)Constant lying. and I still hang on, thinking it will get better and just to talk on the situation and come up with a solution.
5.)The demise of our relationship,he cheated on me. I was too blind to see it. He wanted her and me, but yet said he wanted just me. But hey...they still talk. That tells me thru my lessons with him and advice...he is immature,disrespectful,decieving,and NEVER loved me at all in the first place, we should have just been friends.
