So my mom went on her first Internet date last night. She joined a popular pay site last month. She met him for coffee at a local chain diner place....

He arrived and seemed okay, no fireworks but okay. He found out she was a nurse and talked about his bowel problems in detail for 30 minutes. She interrupted him to ask a question and he said,
"Did you just interrupt me?"
My mom: "Yes, I'm afraid I did".
Date: "Are you sorry?"
My mom: "Oh yes, I am".
Date: "I'm not done yet. It won't ever happen again, will it?"
My Mom: "Oh no, it won't"

While thinking, because I'm never going to talk to you again you condescending controlling little comb-over man....

Sigh....

He also asked her if she wanted to get married someday and she said right now she was just looking to meet new people. He asked her why she bothered to join the site if she didn't want to get married. I laughed at her for once (as she always listens to my stories) and sent her an e-mail this morning making a joke about my bowel functions...

Wow, what a controlling man - so sorry for your mom

He wasn't from Oregon, was he?????

your poor Mom...I feel bad for her having to deal with that. Hope he loses her phone number.

Bless her HEART!!! She met an a-hole from hell, didn't she!!!! I hope she wasn't TOOOOOO nice to him. I'd have made hyena pickins out of that man!!!!!!!!

hopefully she'll be able to laugh at it and move on...but i'm sure you're already helping her with that...

I only don't joke about it because it was your mother.

You have to weed through so much of that before you even find someone you like. I find myself asking, "Is it worth it?"

She just said he was "snippy" and seemed to want her to be more demure. He retired about ten yeas ago and she couldn't even get him to tell her what he did all day.

I did convince her to keep trying.

Can you imagine my mom being demure? I mean, I am a lot like my mom, where do you think I got it from?

welcome to my nightmare..lol bowel movements....

wow Lilith, your mom rocks!

Cause I'll be dayummmmeddd if I could have been that together especially when he asked if I was sorry, my response would have been sorry you're so long winded.

But good for her, kept her cool, remained classy and had a sense of humor to finish the date.

I have an email joke if you'd like to share it w/her -it's about Jack Schitt...

Get her on Mingle & tell her about the 50's & up thread. we can always use new faces.

Controlling men are a joke. Thats why he has bowel issues, he's full of crap!! Don't get that whole control thing. Your mom deserves better than that.

Ha! No, he is from Connecticut....

So you have dealt with Oregon people also?

Oh Puuuullllllease, drop kick that dude to the curb!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Actually, this is where it gets bad....

He described cancer symptoms to her, and told her his doctor advised a colonoscopy, which he refused. My mom knows the doctor, who is a friend of hers and she works with her. My mom also works at an endoscopy clinic where the doctor's colonoscopies are performed.
But he said he refused the procedure and then added, but I can always sue her, right? She told him she was pretty sure you couldn't sue a doctor for trying to perform tests to be sure he was healthy. To which he replied he thought she was just after his money. So my mom said, actually, it sounds like she was trying to rule out cancer, as what your describing meets the criteria for ruling that diagnosis out.

He had no comment there...

Jist one..... and it was a bad one.

Time for A Emergency Phone call on the cell...Gotta do your homework...

LOL, full of crap,yup, that would cause bowel problems, ya think?

yea. some wing mate you are
