These are the two recent dates that compelled me to take a break from OKC

Most recent: 1/10, I think she was looking for a therapist, not a bf. After a week of messaging we decided to meet up for bagels and coffee. She was really cute but surprisingly unpleasant unlike her online persona. We ended up strolling around while I listened to her talk about her thoughts on dating, her opinions on life in general, and her experiences traveling the world. Any time I tried to relate or interject with my own thoughts, opinions, questions, and experiences, she turned the conversation back to herself. Didn't ask any questions, physically distanced herself, I wasn't sure what she was looking for. After a short stroll, she said she felt anxious that she wasn't catching up on her work and left without expressing any interest in a second date. Blah.

Date before that: 1/10. I told a couple of smart jokes and she wanted to meet up right away. She seemed to be fine with my not having a lot of money to spend on, we met at a vibrant location and were open to doing whatever. She didn't look like her pics at all. First conversation topic: how much she hates her mother. Talked over me the first time I responded to a question, acknowledged her mistake immediately and expressed regret, okay that's fine. But she did not change this annoying habit the entire time. I would start a sentence only for her to finish it and start talking about herself. She wouldn't let me finish asking a question before she started responding to it. I ended the date early when she suggested we go to a fancy diner which I couldn't afford, but we ended up taking the same train back together. Right as she arrived at her stop, she turned to me and said, "Oh by the way, I'm going on vacation out of town the rest of the summer." My response was "Have fun." We haven't spoken since.
