Signs You're Dating A 'Douche'

I recently went on a 'date' And it's been a while since I've gone on an actual date. But let me tell you this, I still haven't lost the ability to spot a douche when I see one. Especially one that put himself on display such as this guy did. So from this 'date' I've compiled a list of signs that this guy is going to be a complete douche and reasons why you should break 'it' off as soon as possible. Even before the acutal date: 1. He asks you where you want to go, but the place you picked isn't up to his standards, so he eventually chooses the destination. 2. You work third shift the night before and ask if you can maybe change the time that you were supposed to meet up, but that doesnt work for him. So you have to stick with the time picked out before, and go on this date looking like shit and feeling even worse. 3. He tells you the place he's picked out is somewhere he's worked before. ( Keep in mind for further reference that he must know what's on the menu) 4. You have to pick him up to go on this 'date' Date time: 5. He doesn't open the door for you. 6. You told him before you even planned this date, that you're a vegetarian and DO NOT eat milk or eggs either. You look at the menu and realize you can order toast, and hashbrowns, and water... Yum. (keep in mind he used to work here, so had to have had some knowledge of the menu) 7. He doesn't smile. Not even once. 8. Conversation is pretty one sided, and that one side happens to be, your side. 9. Awkward silence. A lot of awkward silence. (He does pay for the 10$ tab though. Hurray) Now before going out in the first place you had decided that after breakfast you were going to go back to your place and just hang out and watch a movie. No big deal right? Post date: 10. You have to go back to your place because he lives with his parents. 11. He asks to put his arm around you. (my response: no) 12. He asks if you want to lay down with him on your couch. (response in my head: WTF!?!?! Is this guy serious?! My verbal response: Um. No) 13. He leaves mid movie to smoke a cigarette. (yuck) 14. He walks home. Now. After this date I came to realize that I do not want to go out on another date with this guy. At this point I'm thinking, sure maybe we can be friends. But I know I want nothing more than that. Okay. I've came to this conclusion in my head. Post Post Date: 15. I get about 8 texts from this guy periodically through the day. I didn't answer them. He calls me. I still didn't answer him. He Myspace's me, tries to add me on Facebook. Okay. I get it. This guy likes me. And in all honesty I didnt make it apparent that I was interested in him. I did let him spend 5$ on me for breakfast...But I dont think that's enough right to think we're getting married or anything. So I finally caved in and told him that I didn't want to lead him on and I wasn't interested in dating or anything. He got pissed and came back with # 16. 'What so you flirt with all your friends like that?' O M G?!? Yes sometimes my friends buy me breakfast and yes sometimes we watch movies together. AND yes I don't let them put their arms around me and cuddle. Sorry. Get. Over. Yourself. 17. He then proceeds to tell me to lose his number. Consider it done. And I spoke with a few other people (after the date) who know this dude....Supposedly 18.He's tried to get in a lot of girl's pants. Maybe he's just pissed because I wasn't one of them? Oh well. =]
