American Slang – Dating

This was my first blind date, so I took it all really seriously. I was getting all spiffed up and spent more than two hours in the bathroom.  Then, what a dissapointment: the guy I met at the accorded place and time was I complete dork, although the was peacocking, you saw at first glance that he was not exactly boyfriend material. But I thought to myself: what the heck, I might as well chew the fat with him a little. Actually, the evening was quite nice, so I decided to let him get to 1st base, but when he started crawling around in my underwear , I decided to bail out. I am too high maintenance for such a loser, even for a relationship with no strings attached. I think I am just to much of player and I want to play the field a little more.
