Coworker romance poll: If you were engaged, and the dude broke off the engagement with one of the reasons being that

Posted by kelly (aka kelly) Nov 17 '08, 13:12

"You don't like baseball" - would you ever speak to this guy again, let alone get back together with him?

(His other reason was "You're fat". Never mind the fact that her weight has been the same for *years* before the engagement. Yeah, she's a big girl. He's also got 75 lbs on her.)

Responses:

I'd call this "cold feet." Or "frozen feet." - JaxSean Nov 17, 13:23 1
- Exactly. -- nm - lileve Nov 17, 13:28
Nope. -- nm - mara Nov 17, 13:19
the weight, if she has always been that is no excuse - baseball on the other hand is legitimate, as you don't want your children raised by Communists -- nm - crash davis Nov 17, 13:18 3
- Baseball is boring. Good on her for not liking it. -- nm - TWuG Nov 17, 13:19 2
  - *nods* -- nm - zork Nov 17, 13:20

Why do I think that, perhaps, your co-worker isn't exactly telling the full, unbiased story. -- nm - Amy Nov 17, 13:17 7
- Possibly. Or, he could be an immature idiot and she could have zero self esteem. -- nm - kelly Nov 17, 13:23
- "You're fat, you don't like baseball, and you've sucked 37 dicks in the time we've been together." -- nm - TWuG Nov 17, 13:18 5
  - *sigh.* where's dignan? -- nm - pilgrims and indians love mandy lane Nov 17, 13:19 3
    - 38. -- nm - loosilu Nov 17, 13:20 1
      - there it is. proof that loosi has a penis. -- nm - zork Nov 17, 13:21
    - Probably buried in pixie's basement, where he belongs. -- nm - wang Nov 17, 13:19
  - "Does that include me?" -- nm - nubby Nov 17, 13:18
Your cow orkers are the best - no matter what town you live in. -- nm - Diva Nov 17, 13:15 3
- This is correct. It's almost incredible. - TFox Nov 17, 13:16 2

- Have you met my older brother? -- nm - nubby Nov 17, 13:15 2
  - ::sidles:: -- nm - Pippy Nov 17, 13:18
  - *laughing* -- nm - Mel Profit Nov 17, 13:17
- even better: sleep with his more successful older brother. -- nm - loosilu Nov 17, 13:15 2
  - You're such a Dean elitist. -- nm - nubby Nov 17, 13:16 1
    - L3 -- nm - Pippy Nov 17, 13:17
buh bye, never speak again. -- nm - loosilu Nov 17, 13:15
I don't think I'd have been blind enough to get involved with a dude like that to begin with. -- nm - pilgrims and indians love mandy lane Nov 17, 13:14 9
- good answer. too bad not everyone is this wise -- nm - zork Nov 17, 13:15 8
  - word. why do I think she is going to learn about baseball and go on a diet? -- nm - loosilu Nov 17, 13:17 4
    - Nope, not at all. - kelly Nov 17, 13:17 3
      - then she shouldn't be talking about him any more. -- nm - loosilu Nov 17, 13:18
      - is someone else advising that she revert? why are we polling? -- nm - pilgrims and indians love mandy lane Nov 17, 13:18 1
        
        No. I'm polling because I wanted to. -- nm - kelly Nov 17, 13:21
  - I think so much is instinctual, and I tend to have great instincts about people. -- nm - pilgrims and indians love mandy lane Nov 17, 13:16 2
    - I have instincts but don't always have the follow through. -- nm - loosilu Nov 17, 13:19
    - so does mrs. zork but I'm too dumb to listen too often. -- nm - zork Nov 17, 13:18
Ooh, can she teach me how to have self esteem? -- nm - TFox Nov 17, 13:13 1
- I know...I know. - kelly Nov 17, 13:15
I would never speak to the guy again, and I can't imagine any dude actually saying that. - ReluctantCynic Nov 17, 13:13
Depends: How desperate and needy am I? -- nm - nubby Nov 17, 13:13
He sounds like a catch. -- nm - David Nov 17, 13:13
