Episode 13: I'm on a boat.

Okay, I'm not really on a boat.    But I totally dated T-Pain.  Well, not really.  But my version of T-Pain has a boat.  He loves his boat.  And most of his profile pictures are of him on a boat. Now T-Pain is a date that has lingered.  Ya see, what had happened was T-Pain and I tried to coordinate a meet for about a month.  I wasn't super interested so didn't take special effort to make the time.  Then we actually set a meeting but he totally flaked on me.  I wrote him off, but he apologized sincerely.  My life was a tornado at that point, so no second meeting was immediately scheduled. One evening T-Pain was texting me trying to make plans.  Like instantaneous plans.  As in, he went from texting to asking me to get in my car and meet him somewhere.   Yeah, I require planning before entering into a stranger/danger situation. Someone's gotta know where I am so they can call the cops should I end up on your boat walking the plank. I'm all down for spontaneity with people I know. And have met. And I know their last name.

But the story of T-Pain doesn't end there.  We did eventually find a time to meet.  At the mall.  Yeah, it was kind of like a middle school flashback.  And my friend gave me appropriate crap telling me I'm better than the mall.  T-Pain was seemingly normal and not creepy so we started dating.  It lasted for about 6 weeks before I ended it.  He was nice, we had a good time, but I just wasn’t getting those romance feelings.  You know what I mean, right?  That person is on your mind, you talk almost every day, maybe get some flutters from a kiss.  I wasn’t getting any of that.  And, unfortunately, I think he may have been.  So I was honest and told T-Pain that he’s a nice guy, I enjoy spending time with him, but don’t see a relationship in our future.   I felt bad, but honesty is the best policy.  He understood and we've actually hung out a couple times since then.  Maybe I would have felt some sparks if he called me using Auto-tune.  That would have definitely been interesting!
