A few weeks ago I was looking through my local community facebook group when I saw someone put up a post about getting fit by swimming. You see this guy had only installed a swimming pool during this past summer and was putting it out there to people in the area that they could use the pool.
I thought to myself, what a great idea, myself and other people in the community responded to the post.
A few weeks had gone by and I didn’t think too much more about it. I was home one Sunday afternoon when I receive a call from this guy on messenger asking if I wanted to come over as it was getting close to the end of summer.
I explained to this guy that I was doing some painting but would try and get there as it was a nice day.
I managed to finish off my painting in time to get there in the afternoon. Now I know on reflection it was not such a great idea to go to a strange male’s place when I didn’t know him but I didn’t feel that I would be unsafe).
He opens the door and I go in, this guy lives in a unit and had a three seater couch on one wall and a single chair opposite, naturally I sit on the single chair, he says ‘you can come and sit over next to me’. I tell him I am comfortable sitting where I am and that I don’t like sitting right next to someone as it hurts my neck. Anyway, he’s a nice enough guy and I didn’t go over there expecting it to be a date!!! (I don’t know how I was so naive), this is what he thought it was!! Finally, I direct the attention to go for a swim, but by this stage I must admit it was beginning to cool down and this stupid pool was not warm at all!! So I didn’t really have much interest in staying there for too long. As I am about to get out this guy puts his arms around my waist and kisses the back of my neck!!! OMG I get out of the pool but like I say I didn’t feel like he was going to do anymore, he’s just a lonely guy looking for love.
I did end up staying for dinner and it was not unpleasant but I knew that there was no way I would be interested in anything more than a possible friendship with this guy. We all know there has to be some kind of a spark for anything to even consider moving forward with.
The next day, I wake up and he’s sent a message with all this stuff on it ‘I think my mum has sent an angel from heaven’, ‘hello my beautiful swimming girl’, I guess the truth is if I thought this guy was someone I was interested in it might of been OK but it freaked me out big time. I was worried Mr Swimming Guy might turn into Mr Stalking Guy, but luckily this guy got the message pretty quickly and luckily for me ‘I haven’t heard from him again’…..
NEXT!!!! and there will be some more NEXT’S as I am on the merry go round of dating, but the good news is that like Mr Swimming Guy and all the other tossers out there, it’s fodder for my stories.
Happy dating.
