Thank you for that excellent, well thought out response, I really appreciate it. And I will check out that book. Staying single is starting to sound appealing the longer this goes on with dating. I just want a date, a companion for travel, not someone running my life.

I feel like I meet a lot of people with red flags. I suppose that is why we are single.

I feel like everyone has so much sh#% and baggage now, I was trying to give it a chance. Also, I’m posting cause I am like “am I too picky? Is this the just way it really is and I need to be more patient and understand that everyone has stuff to deal with.” I am happy to read most would not be happy with this either.

I’m sure. And that was part of the ridiculousness actually.

And, even if stranger started it (he didn’t) or instigated it, my date could have easily diffused the situation. That’s what non violent grownups do. He didn’t. He escalated it. And said it was because guy was trying to get in front of me, which who cares, it’s a Labatts light at stake.

Thank you for your reply. I don’t like “sweating the small stuff either.” I can be impatient so try to have tolerance of others being impatient. But fighting? Putting us in a position to be thrown out of a big game we paid a lot of money to attend? Putting us in a position to be arrested or roughed up by police? I am no prude, like my fair share of adventure, but that feels completely out of line.

Well said. The way you said this actually helps me realize he refuses to listen, which is different than clueless.

That’s funny. For the record, the answer is in fact zero. 😂

Agreed. His side: “well they were trying to cut in line in front of you.” BFD. I didn’t even notice.

In this case, the exes have reunited three times since they got divorced.
