Good Date, Crazy Ending

by Eathan

Since I decided I wanted to make some changes, I decided why not test the online dating waters again.  So I signed up for Match.com.  I know there are some people who have bad experiences from online dating, but I’ve always used it as a extra avenue to meet new people.  Over the years, I’ve meet several women who remain great friends.

This time I decided to start out with a goal.  I will only stay on the site for 1 month to see if there are any new faces that I might be interested in meeting.  My results have been shocking.  I came across several women that are in my area ( 5 miles radius), that I’ve never met before.

Within the 1st three days, I connected with 2 different women.  Both women are the exact opposite.  One is 5’10, dark hair blue eyes and 24 yrs old.  The other is 5’6 auburn hair, brown eyes and 39 yrs old.  After several days of emails, I decided the 24 yr old wasn’t someone I could take serious.  So I decided to meet SR39 for dinner and drinks.

Our date was at a local Mexican restaurant, Manny’s.  It’s a great location for Margaritas, fajitas and Coronas.  I was pleasantly surprised when I saw her.  And our conversation seemed to flow also.  After dinner, we decided to go to an Irish pub for more drinks.  It was the perfect place to spend a few hours talking.  At the end of the night I walked SR39 to her car and gave her a hug and kiss in the rain.  I wish I could tell all you hopeless romantics that it was the sexy kind of rain that you see in the movies, but it wasn’t.  It was cold and rainy type of night. 307  320x240 margarita Good Date, Crazy Ending

As I drove home I couldn’t help but thing, “wow.. great date.”  I was in the process of looking for a gas station to put gas in my car, but everything was closed.  I didn’t even see a 7-11.  And then the worse thing happened.   I ran out of gas on the Dallas North Tollway.  I was 4 miles to the nearest station and it was 2 am.  The only person I knew was awake was SR39.  Amazingly she answered her phone and mentioned she was still driving home.  After telling her the bad news, she turned around and brought me a gas can.

I was embarrassed, but grateful.  And at the end of the night, I guess that meant that she enjoyed her date also.

Good date.. crazy ending.

I’m waiting to see if date #2 is as good as the first.  Time will tell.

Have you run out of gas on a date?

  • That's a pretty cool date story. I'm sure you'll be telling it to friends etc. That's great that she was down with helping you out, that's probably a good in for later on. Any developments with SR39 since you wrote the post?
  • I can honestly say I have never ran out of gas, and I have pushed it a few times trying to figure out how far I could go with the light on. I hope all goes well for you, I would consider it a good sign that she was thoughtful enough to bring you some gas in the rain and late into the night. Have to keep up posted on date #2
