MY FIRST AND LAST BLIND DATE !

When I had already moved to my own flat because I was fat up to live with my parents at 24, there was sometimes a period when I had no boyfriend. That didn't bother me especially because I went out dancing with friends and life was fun.

But my best friend at this time was very worried about me ! I didn't lead a normal life for a girl of a good family and I had to get married ! She looked amongst her husband's friends to find an adequate partner for me and asked me if I would agree to a date. Of course she praised this apparantly exceptional male in all his glory and made me curious. I agreed and a date was fixed. We should meet in a little café near her home. I found that very funny, I had never had a blind date and thought about wearing a rose in my hand or a newspaper under my arm.

I arrived ponctual at my date and saw a tall young man who wear glasses and was almost bald, he only had a crown of hair around his head. That already disturbed me a a lot little . But he came over to me and finally I found him quite sympathic. We chatted a while and I immediately realized that he intended to consider me far more than a friend. But as I had time and finally nothing to loose I agreed to a second date.

And that was wrong ! From this time on he persecuted me with marriage proposals, called me all the time and when we walked and he saw a furniture shop he wanted to choose furniture with me for our future house ! He became a real sticker and soon I really had enough. The tip of the top then was when my caring neigbor, an old lady who had nothing to do the whole day then watching my love life, alerted my parents to tell them that I undertained a relationship with an elderly man ! Knowing me, my parents found that rather funny. They knew who the "elderly" man was, the poor guy was only 25 ! But of course looking at his bald crane from the second floor it could be confusing.

I also couldn't stand his cow eyes in love and told him that I only had friendship feelings for him and nothing else. It took him nearly a year until he finally gave up calling me once a week to ask if I was ready for him now . But in between I had dates with Mr. Gattino and other interests and I only wished I had never agreed to this blind date !
