Scared Bunny

I swear if there is a woman bound to cause drama, I’ll find her.

Here’s the deal. I had a couple of women I was considering pursuing. I kind of thought I knew which one I would be interested in. She seems to have the best attitude, and was also very cute. Heck, if I have a type, she may be it. I even showed the girls to friends to see what they thought, and unanimously they agreed that this was the girl of those I was choosing between.

So I started trying to get a date. And there were a couple of signs there.

First, she mentioned she was getting a car. OK, so that can be explained. You can have car trouble and need a new car. When I got my Lexus it was because there was just no point spending a fortune to fix my old 4-Runner. So I just let that one slide, even though I was wondering.

Then we talked about what she did and she said computer stuff. Usually when you start talking about what someone does, they are a little more specific than that. So I asked and she did expand a little, and said that she did networking. OK. I accepted that. Yeah she didn’t give much more detail, but maybe she just didn’t want to talk about work. SO I let that go.

Of course she also mentioned she was looking to move to a different part of the metroplex. Again, something you may just let slide because lots of times people, especially renters, will move around. Can’t really blame them if they don’t have a lot of shit. Getting to see different parts of town and get a better idea what fits you makes sense.

But I really should have realized that when, in one conversation, you find someone who is looking for a new car, a new house and seems to not have much to say about her job might actually be someone you need to watch out for.

Now, first, let me tell you that there is not any real drama in this story, so if you want to hear how she freaked out, stole my DVD player and wanted to screw dressed like a gopher in a shopping mall, you may want to stop reading.

Here is what I discovered in our last conversation.

First, she did get a new car, but she doesn’t actually have it. It seems that less than a week after picking it up, she lent it to a friend. Several days later, she still hasn’t gotten the car back. Now, I am not saying what is and isn’t true, just repeating the story. It seems that the friend took it and has since kept claiming to be on their way back with the car. She has even tried to threaten calling the cops, and still she hasn’t gotten the car back. She also can’t go get the car because the person that has it has the only key.

And the thing about needing to find a new place to live? Well, when you live in a hotel that is what happens. I don’t know why she is in a hotel, because she doesn’t want to talk about it. I will say that she has mentioned an abusive ex, so I bet there is a reason related to that. And I feel bad if that is the case, but it’s got drama written all over it.

Oh, and the job? Well, now she doesn’t do computer networking. Now she is receiving some electronics on spec to sell, and her cost is so far below what she can sell them for that, if it’s for real, I will propose to her. But I tend to assume that the opportunities to buy a top brand $3,000 big screen for $500 are few and far between. For her sake I hope like hell that it’s the truth, but the whole thing screams of scam to me.

So, to summarize, her last ex was abusive, her new car was stolen by a “friend”, she lives in a hotel and her “job”, which has changed once already, depends on being given tens of thousands of dollars of quality electronics for less than 20% of their cost, with no upfront cost and the ability to return anything not sold within 30-days, despite the fact she has no store or even a location to work from. I don’t know, but to me it sure seems like an awful lot flying around one girl.

Of course I’ll probably go out with her anyway. She really is attractive.
