RH1 showed up coming from his sisters place nearby wearing a fleece jacket and shorts. Not so bad, as I'm a casual girl. I was casual too. He looked like his photo, so within acceptable range. We chatted through dinner, not so bad. He likes current events, can keep a good conversation, movies, the typical things, no red flags, no sparks either. We went to Islands, I had a chicken burger and he a regular burger. Through the conversation I realized that he's not as active/adventurous as me. He's tall/skinny, looks in good shape. But his idea of exercise is walking. I was coming from the mud run, so not the same. He does seem to walk a lot, and goes out of his way to walk. Like, I drove him to his car and he had parked 1/2 mile away. I parked in the nearby lot. He parked a 10 min walk away...to avoid parking fee? I'm all for free parking but even I have my limits.
Okay, so here's the thing. The check came. At the end, he picks it up and says "how should we do this?" I said "we can split it". What was I going to say? Next time I'm going to say "if you think this is a date you should pay, but if it's not a date we can split." Can I say that next time?
Also, as I said, I gave him a ride to his car. Even with validation, the parking fee was $2. Not that he should have offered to pay, but he should have offered. It just didn't go over well with me coming from the split of the bill.
I really don't want to be one of those snob girls who judge on superficial things like that, but really, come one! How old are you? Don't you know by now? The bill was $21 total. not a whole lot.
Although he could hold a good conversation, he made me split the bill and he's obviously got no game. If the opportunity arises, I will share this with him. Do I see him again (assuming he asks)?
