So we have all been in that moment where we are just so taken in by Prince Charming. Well what if Prince Charming goes from charming to not so charming in less than a day. Whoa, put the brakes on. Please sit right back and let me tell you the story of a very non-charming Charming.
So I was on a group date the other night and my date was not the most fun, in fact I was down right bored. You see my date was much younger than me by about six years. I never thought age mattered until I realize at 20 you just don’t have very many life experiences to share. Actually with me it is hard for me to connect with people at all. I have done a lot of thing in just my 27 years. I have lived in many countries, been to war twice, finished college, and grad school. What can I say, I have met the Queen of Whatever, moved with the shakers, smoked with the hippies. I digress, so I am not having a good time on my date. However, there was a guy there lets call him Charming. He was actually going through the same fun time I was, his date sucked as well. So there we are both having a crappy time and we just ended up chatting with each other and really connecting. I had a great time, we chatted about 6 hours. How many people get that opportunity. Luckily our dates were as bored with us as we were with them. So anyway the next day we made plans to talk. So about 5 today my friend Scarecrow called me, now I love Scarecrow and no matter where or what I am doing I will drop for Scarecrow. I had a call waiting while I was on the phone, normally I ignore call waiting. In this case I answered it because it was Charming. I explained to Charming that I was on the phone and would call him back. This is where it gets so non charming. PC informed me that instead he would call me back about 5:30. Okay fine by me whatever. So I finished up my conversation with Scarecrow and then I lay on my bed just hanging out watching TV and I fell asleep. I missed Charming’ 2nd phone call. Oops. His voicemail said that he would call me later. So I thought nothing of it. Then I get up and check my email, don’t you know there is an email from PC. Old PC has proceeded in a conversation tone essentially call me all sort of things but phrased them in a way like this (this is an actual excerpt from the email, I could not make this up) “Good afternoon my little chubby buddy, looks like you were gabbing too much to talk. I hope all the gay talk didn’t tire you and you are able to email me back. …. Excited to chat with you some more my effeminate chubby buddy”. So when I finally talked to him I told him that I did not like the way he spoke, of course he shrugged it off as my perception of the words. Yeah because effeminate chubb is such a term of endearment. Needless to say I am over Charming. It is a shame to, he had such potential.
