There was one guy I met out, and he seemed like a cool guy. I gave him my email because he claimed that he was too wordy for texts and his thoughts can't be constrained by a mere 160 characters. Kind of a douche thing to say in an attempt to sound smart, but okay. The exchanges were interesting. He spelled well. Things seemed pretty good.
We decided to meet up one night and I dragged my friend along (I know, kind of not cool on my part, but he wanted to meet way downtown and I didn't want to take the subway home alone and frankly, maybe he was psycho).
We get there and he seems okay. Clearly it won't go anywhere with us, but maybe he can be a friend. I like friends.
He did spit a little when he talked, and as the night went on he kept inching closer and I kept having to retreat away. But still, it wasn't a heinous night.
He then starts talking about his ex. I mean, enough with the exs, people. I am so tired of constantly hearing about it, but whatever. And he is saying how much they had in common, and how they still ran into each other because they hung out in the same crowds. He proceeds to tell us then how they bonded over their passion for "adult puppetry."
I smiled and said, "excuse me?"
"Yes, it is REALLY a niche group of us who are into that kind of thing. You'd be surprised. But we were both pretty intensely into it."
Puppet erotica? Really? This is a thing? And you think I'd be shocked to find that it a small group of you? Not so much.
I think the shock and horror showed on my face, as the night pretty much ended there. He walked us outside and said, "Well I'd offer to drive you guys home, but I don't really want to." Such a gentleman! I like the fact that he even brought it up... we weren't expecting or requesting a ride. But hey, at least he pointed out he WOULD if he felt like it.

But I am pretty sure that experience and hearing about this underground group of puppet fanatics made this one of the best dates of my life.

That's horrifying!
Hahahaha, yeah. I kind of want to go to an event just to see what the heck it is all about.
Nothing amazes me in NYC but to actual hear it exists…..crazy. Intrigue to see it as well but would be bursting out in laughter
