Ok, I’ve been remiss in introducing my evidence.  The latest date report involves a guy who I really thought was cute but also didn’t spend much time emailing.  So, I have no alias for him…..so I’m going to call him: “tonight guy.”  My inner monologue went something like this:

1.    It’s hot out here and I’m running late.  How do I show up not sweaty?
2.    Damn, he just called and I hit ignore by accident.  But wait—he left a message and told me where he is in the bar. Score!
3.    Ok….I don’t see him…I don’t see him…oh
4.    Crap.
5.    Is that him?
6.    Sigh.
7.    Well, that proves that.  It now officially takes me only 2 seconds now to know I’m not interested.  So much for the 2 minute rule.  Why am I always getting this wrong?
8.    Wait, smile and at least pretend!
9.    Did he catch that I sighed?
10.    Maybe.
11.    Whatever. I need a drink!
12.    I need another drink!
13.    How much longer can this date last?
14.    Can I hide in the bathroom?
15.    No. I’m not 12.
16.    I need to go to the bathroom!
17.    Wheeee!
18.    Yay! He got the message.
19.    And he paid!
20.    Thank god, I’m done and he didn’t try anything.  Was I that obvious?
21.    Eh, I don’t even remember his name.
