I find it creepy that the guy does not know his age. All he has to do is look at his driver license. Or he may not want them to see his driver licence because it has his real name and address on it.

Hey MSa I hear what you are saying...and given that I was 8 and at that time my Aspergic tendencies were "un-managed" you may be right...but to me the pig knew what was going on and the incident has left a profound and persistent impression on me...and I talk to pigs whenever I meet em.

He was joking around, but I think it basically amounts to "way older than you baby". Considering the upper end went to 40, I'd say he's somewhere in his 40's meaning he's at least 10 years older then her and potentially 20 years older. 20 years is is a really big gap IMO. Especially when dating someone who's in their 20's.

Though I don't think anybody at the radio show thought it would be a good potential relationship. They just think she needs to start dating and get the ball rolling.

I always thought it was the guys who were shy. I remeber going to middle school dances and the guys would just huddle against the wall while the girls danced with each other. None of the guys wanted to be first to ask a girl to dance.

Our dances in grade school were really interesting. I don't know how the dynamic spontaneously happened, but during fast songs the guys would mill around and talk with each other and the girls would pretty much be the only ones dancing. The second a slow song got put on it was like a big game of musical chairs. Everybody tried to find someone to dance with and you didn't want to be the only ones left on the sideline. Guys would ask girls to dance. Girls would ask guys. Didn't matter. You just had to find someone.

Oh and when they called last dance you always tried to find the girl you really had a crush on. Ah grade school.

Date situation: Totally unsafe and creepy. 'Course I'm perpetually suspicious and maybe slightly paranoid. I would NEVER go the home of someone I just met alone. I have done so with a friend, however. You know, safety in numbers.

Cooking dinner for someone is intimate and not a first date thing. It's a "we've been seeing each other for at least a month" thing.

Additional creepers that this guy doesn't know his age? WTF is that? This isn't the turn of the century when birth records were spotty. He's hiding something whether it be a traumatic past, or a wee bit 'o' crazy. I would never go out with him...let alone to his apt. What a sketcher.

They couldn't come up with someone better for this DJ? She's in her early 20s and they pick someone who is close to 40? Oy. There's got to be someone more suitable for her out there.

Of course but I mean she's just a radio DJ. I'm totally out of her league.

So, further creepiness (at least in my book). I was telling the story to my friend and she has a friend from college who's a chef. She says that he told her lots of chefs are drug addicts. He says the work long and odd hours and it's pretty common for them to turn to drugs to keep up with it. I so hope that's not true. I really don't want some drug addict preparing my food. For her situation though it's just another reason to play it safe.

Zeek, you definitely gotta let us know how the date goes. I'm all interested now.

It also makes me wonder what the girls problem is actually. She went out and could only get the attention of a creepy 40 year old?

Well, getting attention and knowing how to turn that attention into a date is something else entirely. Ask me how I know. :D

Because of my cautious and suspicious nature, I have a really hard time just meeting someone and then being ready to spend time with them. I should just be like 'yeah...let's go do something', but my approach is usually 'are you worth my time' and that doesn't work so well when you barely know someone. If there's a connection right away, I'm willing. If not, I have to talke myself into going out. :D
