Hil, doesn't he KEEP doing that? This is not the first time he's said he'd meet with you between certain hours, and then not been available until AFTER those hours. Geez, how freakin' useless...and incredibly disrespectful.

Yes. Just about every meeting this summer, he's been at least half an hour late, sometimes up to two hours.

That's academia.

Skippy skippy... At Comic-Con for preview night. Don't know how much the Glamboy (love this nick!) will let Mama do. I'm already parked and it's only been a few hours!

YELLOW FLAGS! OK, I didn't *want* to try and snog tonight. Lets see if I can recall all the yellow flags.
1) goes to church every Sunday (little flag)
2) teaches Sunday School (little flag)
3) Goes to same church as George W. Bush (and is proud of that) [medium flag]
4) Thinks Obama is RUINING America, hasn't done one good thing right since taking office... (there was more, but I stopped listening to that rant)
5) Thinks FDR was one of, if not THE, worst President ever!
6) Thinks Capitalism is the model society. Let the market dictate everything
7) Socialized Medicine, and health care reform in general is BAD. What Obama wants to do will cause a MASSIVE shortage of Doctors, and then you will have bureaucrats deciding if you should get a cast for your broken arm... (there was more, but I stopped listening to this rant)
8) Speaking of curve benders, she was one, but told how she was aceing a Calc class in college, 100, 98, 100, 100, and was bribed to bomb the final. 10 questions, she answered the 6 hardest, and left the others blank. Got those 6 right, and still got an A, but helped the class get a curve on the exam. Um. Academic Dishonesty! There was a couple other minor cheating things, ya whatever, but the test. Um. Seems major uncool.
9) George Carlin sucks. Too many foul words. (RED FLAG)

Ugg, what do I do now?

Ugg, what do I do now?

Yikes! That's....she doesn't sound all that compatible, actually. Compatibility matters.

I'd back off, Omnis.

Unless, of course, there was some crazy chemistry zapping around and I just couldn't help myself. In that case I'd "go for it" and spend the next 12-18 months driving my dear friends up a wall.

shoot her? Yeah, there are reasons I'm single, huh? But I'm just SO OVER all that red-state shit. It makes me angry at my old "everyone's got a right to her opinion!" self. Even when I miss her sometimes.

Omnis, I'm torn, but unless you're really, really drawn to her for some intangible reason, she doesn't sound like a long-term (or even short-term)partner for ya.

That's a lot of flags, omnis. Compatibility of values is more important to a long-haul relationship than compatibility of interests. The big one is that you say you didn't even want to try to kiss her. Go with your gut on this one.

In all seriousness(and thankfully for her, I am still uncoordinated and a gun-control advocate,) you could probably survive a few of those things. But not all of them together.
