I think I blew it!

After several dates with a great guy he invited me back to his house for a movie. I decided I felt comfortable enough to go. We had a GREAT TIME. He has a full basement with a bar..pool table..games..dart board! Fun stuff. Well I apparently hurt his feelings UNINTENTIONALLY by saying I do not drink beer out of a can. That is all he had. I said I WOULD and did not mind but in general I prefer bottles. Aye Aye Aye!

cutefont,


I dont think YOU blew it. I think HE did. If he's intimidated by yourlifestyle then HE is the one with issues not you. When people start comparing lifestyles thats a red flag. I think acceptance is important. He should accept you and your lifestyle for who you are and not compare or be intimidated.

Eh, as someone who rarely invites people over, if you bitch about what I'm offering I'm not inviting you over again. If I do, I'm going to remember the whole complaining incident over again.


There is a difference between "preferring' bottles to saying you "won't drink from anything else".
