I have a job interview this morning. It's the second one...the first was on the phone and she seemed very eager to have me come in for a second (prior to the official invite). I think the job would totally kick ass but I worry about the money since it's a nonprofit. We'll see.
I'm supposed to grab a drink with a dude tomorrow night. Conversation has been really easy and fun. But twice he's slipped in something really sexual. The first time I immediately shut it down and told him I don't discuss those types of things with someone I don't know and he stopped. Then last night I got a "do you sext?" and like 20 minutes later (I was sleeping) I got a partial dick pic. Am I a total prude for being turned off by that? I'm not trying to get laid. I wanted to meet to see if there was a connection not start off with the vibe of "I just want to bang".

I would be 100% turned off by that Doris. It would make me feel like he was just throwing a line out to every chick he meets online hoping for a bite. It's completely possible to be flirty without the sexting and dick pics.
My whatever: I don't think I'm pregnant anymore. Tests have gotten weaker so I think I caught a fading chemical pregnancy. Whatever indeed.
I won tickets to a meet & greet with Miranda Lambert - it's today!
This has been the longest quarter end close at work and paired with b-day party planning on top of other events...I'm just glad the stress is almost over and I have more 'me' time.
doriswe if you already shut him down once and he brought it up again, I would run from this guy; especially with the pic. If you're not looking to hookup, as he obviously is, then don't even give him the time of day; it's not worth it. Plus maybe he'll get the hint if it happens enough...
But hey good luck on your interview, non profits can be great places to work and sometimes the gratification of the job is more important than the pay, SOMETIMES
Also good luck doriswe and I agree with daktor71 about NPOs. I think there are some people here who work at them inara maybe? and could shed some light.
I am still learning to navigate the dating world. This date was nicer then some of my others but I'm a little upset and always wonder if there are any good guys left in the world.
So I started talking to this smart engineer on POF and we finally decided to meet up. He was super nice through dinner but then we decided to walk the water front park and chat and as we were walking he pulled out his phone and snapchatted someone. I was kind of taken back. I have never had that happen. It was awful. Thank goodness I wanted to end the date but really? Ugh I hate when you think it's a good guy and he turns out to be a jerk.

I am kind of ignorant to snapchatting, but is it always for dating/hooking up? Or were you able to see that it was something like that? I know my coworkers send each other funny/stupid snapchats sometimes.
Ick doriswe I'd be totally turned off by that too. Good luck on the interview! Hugs starburst604.
My whatevers: I had a great dinner out with my girlfriends last night and am chugging coffee this morning like it's my job. I had crazy dreams last night and didn't sleep well. Yawn.

doriswe, I would be turned off too. The fact that you shut him down and he still sent it means he isn't listening to you. Big red flag. And in terms of the NPO, wait and see. I'm getting paid *almost* as much at my current position (NPO) as my last position (for profit).

I'm home sick today. I normally wouldn't care but I signed up to work with a wellness coach to try and help me lose the last 10 pounds I want to lose. Tonight was supposed to be my first session with her
I am going to look at an apartment today after work, then I am having dinner with some girlfriends, then I'm meeting up with coworkers to watch the Wild game. Tomorrow I have a doctor's appointment and then dinner and a movie with a girlfriend. I am exhausted and excited about this newfound life, though I feel like Saturday and Sunday are going to be spent in bed recovering from all the socializing.

Feel better Bully. I'm happy to see you around again lately

I have never heard of snapchat but it's apparently used for sending photos and in less than 30 minutes it will disappear.
I called him out on it and he tried to play it off as though he was talking with his roommate but it was clearly some other chick. Ugh I am almost 30, I thought we were over the "frat boy" lifestyle.
I feel like mp in that I over analyze. I mean it was a first meeting and yes, I have no ties to him but still that was just rude and I don't get it.

Positive thoughts and vibes coming your way. (hug) (hug2)
