Worst Date #13 - I'd Like To Introduce...

When a guy says, "I want to introduce you to some friends," I don't immediately think, Oh, he wants to take me to an AA meeting.


Now, I'm all for the program. It's helped many people, including friends of mine.

It's just not a place to take a date ever. That's why it's anonymous.

I get that he wanted to be open and honest about where he was in his life, but have some decorum. If not for me, but for the brave souls trying to overcome their addictions in private.

They don't want to see you woo me with your "sharing."


Disclaimer: These are not my dating stories... Just ones I've accumulated.

There is so much to comment on, where to start LOL

I know you will love stitching the 12 Blessings, I did them for my DD and enjoyed each one more than the last.

The Singer looks wonderful. When you finish you should send a picture to Singer, I bet they would love to see it.

The stitching looks great, can't wait to see whats on top of the pig
