Dating history tales
Sometimes you just need to hear about the sad, wonderful, inspiring and often downright WEIRD dating experiences of others. This series of blog posts will recount a tale from our pasts - purely for your own amusement. Enjoy and feel free to read more here.
I was "sort of" dating this boy who was not my normal taste but a much needed 'palate cleanser'. He was my polar opposite in every way but that made it all the more interesting. I drew the line at this one though:
First time staying at his new place, I knew it would be sparse as he had only been there a week. However I did not expect the sleeping arrangements. Floor, duvet, 1 pillow - no covers.
Let's just take the time to think about this for a second. 1 pillow - between 2 for a girl who's used to sleeping with 4 in various combinations. and 1 duvet to be both base and covers...just not gonna work!
But I put my 'big girl panties' on and made the best of it. "I can do this for a night - it could be fun!" (It wasn't)
It was even less fun the next two times I stayed over, including once after I had just worked an event all weekend and just wanted a bath and feather bed, and once when he was ill meaning neither of us got any sleep.
I mentioned it - several times. He honestly didn't see the issue. It was "bohemian" he said and even had the nerve to mockingly call me "Princess" (for wanting a bed? A hells yeah then I'm a Princess!)
Needless to say I stood by my guns when I said "Get a bed or I'm not staying here again"
