Well, so Victor, Sweetie and I went to this MotoCross thing Saturday night.  He texted me saying he was leaving his place and did I want to take the train.  I say sure and he asks me to figure out which train to take.  I don't have internet at home at that point so I say, no computer, let's just drive.  He says he's heading out on this motorcycle, so I assume we're driving my car.  When did it become the job of the woman to provide transportation on a date that the guy asked for?  I'm a little ticked, but decide not to get worked up over it.  I figure he'll drive since I assume he knows where this thing is being held.  Nope!  He insists that I drive and then he's not even sure which park it is.  Luckily I had mapquested directions.
 
We get to the event and have to park like a mile (okay, maybe 1/2 mile) away and then have to find his friend with the tickets in a crowd of 20 something highschool inbred idiots who have already started the party outside the stadium.  One guy is standing there holding this pass out chick who's half way to the ground.  Nice!  We get tickets and once we're inside he has no idea how to find our seats.  We decide to grab something to eat before we sit down and he hesitates when the bill starts to add up.  Hello?  He asked me to come and the tickets were free and I paid for the gas!!!  So I chip in some money and we let Sweetie help us look for our seats.
 
We had to hike up to the very last seat at the very top of the stadium.  Along the way there are people that are really aggressively pushing us around and Sweetie and I are amazed that Victor isn't pushing back to give us space to walk.  I know Bill was an asshole, but at least when we walked in crowds we didn't have to worry about being trampled.  We couldn't find the exact seats but there were 3 pretty close so we sat down.  About 1/2 hour into the game we got booted out of them and I had to ask someone who worked there where they were.  We get there and someone is sitting in our seats.  And they're big and drunk and stupid.  Victor didn't step up and tell the guy and his bitches to move.  The guy moved, but the bitches sat there trying to stare me down.  I totally got in their faces and even did the finger pointing at them and then pointing "outta there!" thing.  They moved, I must have looked as pissed as I felt at this point.
 
Sweetie, in her teenage optimism, didn't bring a coat so 1/2 way through the event I took mine off and gave it to her.  She was like blue!  He didn't offer and by now I had Sweetie sitting between us.  When she warmed up a bit she and I shared my coat like a blanket, which left our backsides frozen but at least our tits weren't forming icecycles.  Then he offers his coat.  By now I'm totally disillusioned and turn it down.  I'd rather freeze.
 
This is the guy who professes to being old fashioned, but I'm not seeing old fashioned.  I'm seeing perhaps lazy and maybe not really all that interested.  If that is the case he should just be honest.  If he didn't want to take Faith along we should have not gone at all.  I'm a package deal with my kids.  I also learned that watching guys race around a track all evening probably isn't something I'm going to do again.  Especially if my date keeps talking about the blond bimbo who holds the numbers.

    OH NO HE DIDN"T!!! ***fraggles waggling her finger, neck, and backside all at the same time while she says this***
  • fragglesrock said on Feb 02, 2009....
    what are you going to do?
  • uniquely-ironic said on Feb 02, 2009....
    frags - IDK  I'm trying to give him the benefit of the doubt here.  I did invite him to attend the Awards thingy just to see how he behaves in "polite company".  If he fails I think I'm going to have to have a long talk with him about just being friends.  I need someone who can function in both worlds.
  • MissMimi said on Feb 02, 2009....
    Hmmm.  Does this guy even have a car?  I'm not sure what I think, but his behavior does not endear him to me. (Like it matters... ;) )  His lack of chivalry, good manners, whatever, bothers me.  I think you're right to have a few doubts.  Have you ever been to his home?  I hate to even ask this, but, could he be married?
  • uniquely-ironic said on Feb 02, 2009....
    MMM - I know he has a truck, so he could have used that.  It really is the manners thing that bothers me.  I haven't seen his house, but I'm 99.9% sure he's not married.
  • fragglesrock said on Feb 02, 2009....
    i think it's fair to give him the benefit of the doubt - ONCE.  maybe the exhaust fumes so charged up his testosterone that he just couldn't help his apeman behaviour and knuckle dragging.
  • uniquely-ironic said on Feb 02, 2009....
    frags - that's what I'm hoping for here.  I feel like I'm being very picky, but to me manners matter, especially in front of my children.  I'm trying to model the behavior I expect them to have or expect from their future spouses and this fell short.
  • BEWELL said on Feb 02, 2009....
    Uni:
      for many years I was in outside sales and some of those sales happen in people homes.  You can tell alot about a person by their home.  He has been to your house how many times?  yet you have not been to his once, is he hideing something?
  • uniquely-ironic said on Feb 02, 2009....
    Bewell - He says it's in the hills and it's a small home.  He's doing some major work on the foundation right now.  I would like to see his home if only to know he's not lying about having one, which I don't think he is.  The condition ........ who knows!
  • BEWELL said on Feb 02, 2009....
    uni:
    I love to show off my home and yes it is still being work on.  redoing a bathroom, work on replacing the wall to wall with hard wood floors.  The only time I not happy to show my home is when the little dogs piss on the rug!!
  • uniquely-ironic said on Feb 02, 2009....
    Bewell - I'm thinking he has issues with private space.  I really don't care if his place is small, after all I live in a room.  There is also the fact that he lives about 40 miles from me, so I'm not sure if he thinks I don't want to drive there.  For me, that distance is nothing, for other folks it seems too far.
  • Hegemone said on Feb 02, 2009....
    Uni, wow, I'm shocked.  This guy sounded like he was gonna be a good one.  Maybe he was just off his mark for that date, or maybe it threw him for a loop that Sweetie was there and he didn't know how to behave.  Then again, on the flip side, maybe he didn't truthfully want her there and was being a shithead because of it ... which is an obvious deal breaker.  I think you've got a good plan by seeing how the Awards go and then deciding from there.  Maybe it'll give you more time to see where he really stands and figure things out before it goes too far.  I just enjoy seeing that you're so upfront and in control about this, no goofing off and wasting time for you!
  • uniquely-ironic said on Feb 02, 2009....
    Hege - heck, at my age I don't have time to waste on situations that aren't going to amount to anything meaningful.  He's been texting up a storm to me today, so I wonder if he's catching that he fouled up the date in my eyes.  We really just need to sit and talk about it and decide whether it's a work around or a deal breaker.
  • Lucytorial said on Feb 02, 2009....
    OH MY GOD, I think George and I need to kick his butt outta existence... fucking hell Uni.
     
    You hit something there, lazy, idle, what is it thats bothering me about the whole thing? the date well hey motocross can be fun with someone who knows how to have fun this guy seems boring, not to mention he has a highly developed ignorance to the comfort of others.
     
    Eeekk... he aint old fashioned I reckon he uses that to say he's a fucking lazy slob and wants you to be the slave... eeekk!
     
    Quick George, George where are you??? we gotta get rid of this guy!
  • uniquely-ironic said on Feb 02, 2009....
    Lu - I realize not everyone is as accomodating as I am, but that was a prime example of near total disregard to another's comfort.  I'm wondering if Hege is right about not wanting Faith around.  If that's the case I call it now.
  • Lucytorial said on Feb 02, 2009....
    I would too, you cannot seriously make yourself go out with a guy who 1. wants you to bend your schedule 2. has disregard for your own tastes (really even though I could handle a motocross cause I'm a fuck whit) even I'd find it difficult to create a fun night out with that.
     
    Like he asked you, got free tickets and then started squirming because of a meal! its a DATE! HE ASKED ! FUCKING PAY mornon... if he didn't say he was old fashioned you could have at least made fun of him as it is there isn't much to say except WFT was that?
  • bluegum said on Feb 02, 2009....
    time to find out a few things about victor boy .1 check the house out,true or false.2 the date all so wrong, victor you are not old fashioned with dateing too many things messed up big time ,look after uni and sweetie ,you pay mate,you defend even if you get your head knocked off in the process. uni tread carefully.blue.
  • mixednuts said on Feb 02, 2009....
    VAROOOOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • Lucytorial said on Feb 02, 2009....
    I agree Bluey ~ Fuck that shit, any man should and would have made sure you guys were comfortable walking through a crow like that (with two heads) and made sure that he stood up for you.
     
    Wanker alert!!!!
  • mixednuts said on Feb 02, 2009....
    I guess you'll never love me. I hate when that happens!
  • uniquely-ironic said on Feb 02, 2009....
    Lu - I just think he was tacky all the way around.  The very least he could have done was to drive one way, pay half and ask the morons to move their drunken ass out of our chairs.
     
    blue - I'm definately gonna tread some water here.  I can't and won't get involved with anyone who makes that many mistakes and doesn't at the very least recognize it.
     
    mixed - it's a nice bike, but I can buy one of those if that's all I'm into it for.
  • MissMimi said on Feb 02, 2009....
    LOL  Wanker alert...  LucyT, you is funny.  You is also correct.  :D
  • Lucytorial said on Feb 02, 2009....
    MissMims ~ I seriously doubt this guys credentials.... he may have tried to connect initially but now he just seems like a limp dick... a sloppy joe, a weener, a brick short of a load.
  • uniquely-ironic said on Feb 02, 2009....
    Lu - as it was I had to make a few shoulder bumps happen to give Sweetie room to walk. 
     
    mixed - not if you aren't a gentleman
     
    MMM - she has a way with words, doesn't she?!!
  • quietone said on Feb 02, 2009....
    Oh, my gosh uni.... you gotta take off that "jerk magnet"!!! There has to be some decent guys around some where!  
  • uniquely-ironic said on Feb 02, 2009....
    quietone - I'm begging to wonder.
  • diabolicdame said on Feb 02, 2009....
    Oh crap!! This was so not old fasioned! This was actually very unfasionable in every way!! He sounding less and less normal uni.. I think somw weirdness is starting to creep out of him. Be careful! But yes once can be excused I guess if he can get his act together.
  • MsStar39 said on Feb 02, 2009....
    If you know where he lives , I would do a driveby,  any kids playing in the yard, runing in the house calling mama, lot's of red flags flying here, be careful. 
  • queenparanoia said on Feb 03, 2009....
    men...

    :-)
  • hotaka said on Feb 03, 2009....
    Oops. Sounds like the true colours are showing early. Good thing he wants to take things slow, eh? That makes it easier to get off if you've decided you got on the wrong train.

    I guess the thing to do now is tell him how you felt and if his reaction is suitably "old fashioned" he'll deserve a chance to make up for that day. Otherwise his butt can motorcycle its way back up north.
  • moonriver said on Feb 03, 2009....
    moon fu-tzu say, maybe victor eyeing you as drinking buddy, a biker chick he ask to check oil and clean spark plugs in freezing cold while he go off to take pee somewhere.
    when you and he in bedroom, maybe he expect you to call for pizza, whip out deck of cards and pack of beer for all-night poker session.
    some go for that kind of muddy dirt trail romance.
    maybe you need send him strong signal that you not biker chick or motocross groupie.

  • uniquely-ironic said on Feb 03, 2009....
    dd - I'm hoping he can and yes, this was not a stellar performance on his part.
     
    MsStar - I don't know where he lives, he has said it's in a really rural part of town so a drive by might not be an option.
     
    queenie - you said it sister!
     
    hotaka - better early than later I guess. *sigh*
     
    moon - yes, I think you're right.  I think this awards ceremony might be the strong signal that I expect less bike and dirt and more conversation and polish.
  • starchini said on Feb 03, 2009....

    wow uni...this guy just continues to lose point huh?  I know im not dating him or anything but reading about it makes me feel like I am and jeepers id be pretty disapointed...I can just think of one word- RUDE!  Whats the deal with him being so cheap?  And my goodness letting you get all trampled?  Not kicking the hoochies out of your seats?!  What? Did he expect you to stand?  Im a believer in the ninety day three strike rule...I dont know what you consider a strike but im guessin hes getting pretty close...I still think there is better out there for uni..

    Plus, disregarding all the little things that raise flags i think there is a much bigger flag here.  It seems like hes quite the gear head.  That can cause problems later down the line.  I know right now its not a big deal for you to tag along but if your truly not interested in becoming a gear head yourself, that could be a big bridge between the two of you.

    I once worked with a gal at Regis hair salon and she started dating a big gear head.  He loved his ford truck.  Spent day and night working on it and rarely spoke about other things that didnt have to do with Ford.  She thought it wasnt a big deal and thought it was good that he had his own life and a passion for something.  But it got to the point where is Fords came first.  If she wanted to hang out with him, she had to put on her hard hat and get dirty with fords.  After some time and trying to negotiate and him being unwilling she put her foot down and said "its me, or the truck" and he picked the truck...

    Again i have no idea just how into his motos he gets but it might be something to chew on if your on the fence...Only you know uni.  Best of luck to ya and remember dont sell yourself too short, you are quite a  catch and a force to be reckoned with : )  You badass you! 

    lots of luv! 

  • MsStar39 said on Feb 03, 2009....
    Do a people search on Zaba, it's free, all you have to do is type in his name.
    Some of these sites will tell you everything, including relatives, address, phone no. and a map to his house.
  • uniquely-ironic said on Feb 03, 2009....
    star - you make a good point about his motorcycles being a point of contention between us in the future.  At this point I'm not sure how serious he is about it all.  I mean, it's not like he ONLY does it, but should things evolve he might feel like I'm trying to pull him away from that and I don't want that either.
  • uniquely-ironic said on Feb 03, 2009....
    MsStar - I'll give it a try.  Maybe I can google earth it.
  • Lucytorial said on Feb 03, 2009....
    Okay so when's this do? I need to get george ready to tap him on the shoulder and escort him out for any behaviour that is not what one should expect at such an event.
  • uniquely-ironic said on Feb 03, 2009....
    Lu - on Feb 12th.  Ironically it's the same day I'm going to the dentist in the morning.  I can just see it now.  I'll be drooling my cocktail while lecturing Victor in good manners.
  • Lucytorial said on Feb 03, 2009....
    haa ha haaa okay thats an hillarious thought.. lop sided smile remember, dribble... beration of the hands fluttering with whispers under your breath and Victor looking all confused, with George popping his head out of your handbag.
  • uniquely-ironic said on Feb 03, 2009....
    Lu - It's all too possible!!! LOL  I absolutely can't reschedule either.
  • Lucytorial said on Feb 03, 2009....
    man, it isn't big work is it? cause if you can't put lipstick on then you know you're in for a night to remember....
  • uniquely-ironic said on Feb 03, 2009....
    Lu - it could turn into big work.  The dentist is trying to do a filling, but it's in a weird place, so it might turn into a crown prep. 
  • Lucytorial said on Feb 03, 2009....
    ohh lovely, just lovely....  don't you just love it... well good luck with that, I'm starting to save for my front teeth this week, pulling  in some hours will help me pay for it sooner than I thought.
     
    Make sure you pack a small thing of tissues in your handbag.... :-P
  • uniquely-ironic said on Feb 03, 2009....
    Lu - I'm thinking of going in a burkha so that it disguises the fact that 1/2 or more of my face is numb and lopsided.
