Mr. June

I met Mr. June at his favorite restaurant, La Fondita, in Glen Burnie. It is an authentic Mexican restaurant where they speak little to no English and they only accept cash. Well, I didn't know the "cash only" deal so Mr. June had no choice to either pay or dine and dash! I TRIED to order a vegetarian dish but Senorita explained that they didn't have vegetarian dishes available, so I settled for the beef tacos (you're always safe with beef tacos!). I wasn't a fan of their food, but I guess I like my Mexican food Americanized! Mr. June on the other hand is adventurous with his food selection... good for him! NOT ME! He's truly a nice guy, but when he talks he reminds me of Sheldon on Big Bang Theory. His picture did not look like him...maybe 5-10 years ago. He had acne like that of a 14 year old boy plus some other something on his lip... couldn't really tell what was going on. Now as a victim of cold sores from time to time, I understand they pop up randomly (sometimes when stressed) but I would cancel a date with some lame excuse before I met someone for the first time with a cold sore. "I have lice." "I got a sudden case of small pox." "My 3 legged spider monkey isn't feeling well." "A 4 humped camel stepped on my foot while I was walking in the Amazon yesterday." These would all be acceptable and useable excuses if you have something going on and the conditions to meet someone new were not favorable. The conversation was good and he was easy to talk to but I wasn't physically attracted to him nor did I think that would change over time.  I did however decide that I would hang out with him again but as friends. About an hour or so after I got home from the date, Mr. June had emailed me a message asking if I wanted to go to dinner the upcoming Saturday. I was honest and told him I would but I wasn't physically attracted to him. He said he understood and apologized if the date was disappointing. I let him know I wasn't disappointed, just sometimes it rolls that way! He dropped the invite details after that so I figured he wasn't interested in a date between friends, and honestly, neither was I but I figured he wouldn't go through with the date if he knew I wasn't interested beyond "friends".  Another one bites the dust... on to Mr. July!!!!
