Mia sounds kind of awesome.
OP, she made this...Ha! Mia sounds kind of awesome.<br /><br />OP, she made this incredibly clear, and I find it hard to believe you still don't get it. The paper bag indicates that you're ugly, the angry face indicates that she was upset that your online pictures were misleading, and her leaving demonstrated that she didn't feel it was worth getting into a long argument with you about how you misled her. Honestly, this is brilliant - I've sat through some painful dates in the past and Mia's method of dealing with it would have been so much simpler.<br /><br />My advice to you is to post more realistic pictures of yourself when you date online. Sure, you may get fewer responses, but the responses you get will be people who are genuinely attracted to you. Otherwise, this kind of experience will keep happening - except that most women won't tell you what's wrong: they'll just sit through the painful date and then say they "didn't feel a connection." Mia not only did you the favor of identifying your problem: she also did it without unnecessarily wasting your time or money. (Or hers.) I can totally respect that.wolfdreams01https://www.blogger.com/profile/17132744227210305134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3186499665856075184.post-45437245190424515822012-01-08T16:16:41.819-05:002012-01-08T16:16:41.819-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.wolfdreams01https://www.blogger.com/profile/17132744227210305134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3186499665856075184.post-80819949316746585402012-01-08T15:21:13.287-05:002012-01-08T15:21:13.287-05:00She could've saved you 10 minutes and arrived ...She could've saved you 10 minutes and arrived with the bag.
