Welp, we’ve reached peak androgyny— a date just looked me up and down and in a flash of panic blurted out “You’re a girl?! You’re way too masculine for me!!” before exiting the restaurant.
Rejection stings but… I’m kinda proud 😆

And the story of my bad date-
It was great at first! We were laughing, sharing our favorite shows, truly just enjoying our time! But after 2 hrs, he excused himself to the restroom and he left. Left me with the bill, and blocked me everywhere. Dating is hard 😭

Image shows two copies of the book cover: title and author name with image of two figures, one watching the other over her shoulder from the shadows as she types on a phone
Chucked in a quick read to supplement the end of my tree book read and keep my kindle tally going.
Bad Date by Ellery Lloyd is an Amazon Prime first reads bonus short story that just hit the spot nicely.

Glad I could help!
That’s why it’s good to have a blind friend.

I don’t think the date is going as good as he thinks it is. #impressive #baddate #dating #AJInTheMorning #Y101
Has a friend, coworker, neighbor, or family member ever set you up on a bind date? How did it go?

You might be able to tell from Frog Prince's expression, but his date didn't go well! 😬

OMG YES! This can happen with kingsnakes if it isn't mating season. They need to be separated at all other times of year and supervised when they mate, otherwise the owner can lose the male. Since female snakes are usually larger, it's usually the smaller male who becomes lunch! 😬🐍🍽🐍💀 #BadDate
Debugging is like a bad date. You spend hours trying to find the problem, and the answer is always disappointing. #TechHumor #Debugging #BadDate
A friend told me her date said "You deserve to be bred." 🤢I told her to find a person who says "You deserve bread" 🍞 instead
