nadid Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 I was on a date with a guy tonight at Mi Cocina... I was shocked that my date took his shoe off at dinner and draped his leg over his knee. - His foot (and dirty sock) was just inches from our table/plates. YUCK! He left it there for a few minutes. As we were eating chips and salsa, he lifted the salsa bowl and took a sip of it the way you would drink the milk leftover in a cereal bowl. As if that wasn't enough, then later after we ate, he scooped up the left over guacamole with a knife and took bites of it off the knife and licked it up too. I don't know if he felt more "casual" since we were on the patio of the mexican restaurant, but I thought he was a bit embarrassing to be with! Would you feel the same way in this situation or is it me? LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hers Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 well the eating off a knife is no big deal to me, as i do that sometimes, just without thinking. but the sock and stuff right by the food woudl bother me. it'd bother me even more if he drank out of the fricken salsa bowl! wow.... no, it's ok that you feel t hat way!

Lamour detruit Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Fellow sounds pretty disgusting. More than reason enough to not bother again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jengh Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Oh good god! I wonder why he's single annie, the first thing I thought of was, "this is totally off disaster date!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmike Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Nadid, whats wrong with drinking the salsa straight from the bowl? At least he wasn't double dipping . Maybe it was his "chill" anything goes attitude that attracted you to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmike Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Honestly, this was hilarious, more than a "bit" embarrassing. The question now is are you going to "next" him? Even though you did not like what he did I think there is a chance you may keep him around. Feel free to correct me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

digger11 Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Well, on a serious note.... i would be put off too. Was everything else great? I would maybe give him another chance if so... but I don't know how to correct people on table manners like that... :S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

easyguy Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 And if that is his behavior on a date with a lady, then I would wonder what his lifestyle as a whole is like. I mean, it doesn't make a difference if it's a date or not. Putting your feet up on a table without shoes in a restaurant, from my upbringing, is bad manners. That isn't even taking into considering that he is giving this as a first impression with a date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taikero Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 He took his shoes off, and his feet.....didn't touch the food or the table at all? He...ate with a knife? Okay, maybe not traditional manners but nothing actually gross (unless you could smell his feet). As for drinking out of the salsa bowl, I'll give you that. That is rather gross for more than one reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LightbulbSun Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Fellow seems quite unpolite, at the very least. At the very most, he sounds extremely gross. I wouldn't go on a second date, OP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
getbiii Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 okay first of all, if this is the way he acts on first dates, then imagine when he gets comfortable with you... lol he will probably scratch at it, sit back, and pick his ear with the fork!!!! the whole thing with the salsa bowl is gross, its the salsa bowl they put in the middle right? for the chips? that thing is public people touch it all the time it would have be different if it was something he ordered. and then the whole thing about taking his shoes off =\ ouch... that even hurts! lol i mean i could understand if he maybe just sliped the hee off for a little under the table but putting it up?! i go on dates dressed the best i can and my best shoes are usually not the most confortable (hell i have a huge blister from some boots i wore last week) but i will take that torture and not take them off till the night is over and im home ! the guacamole thing is what ever, i just hope he didn't cut his tongue! lol this would of all been complete if he would have farted and burped! lol hahahaha P.s. was he really hot for you to go on a date with him? i mean, if these are his ethical morals at the table, i can imagine that he is kinda like this all the time.

sidehop Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Table manners...if he doesn't have one who knows how he grew up lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nadid Posted May 12, 2010 Author Share Posted May 12, 2010 I was laughing as I read the responses This wasn't my first date with him. We've been out to eat about 5 or so other times, and he was ultra polite (to me, to the wait staff, & had very good table manners)! The only thing I can think of is that he felt all relaxed out on this patio last night...There weren't very many people there at 9:30pm and we were seated by this huge loud fountain and at these couch-like seats. I suppose for him, the environment just felt totally chill and would permit him (in his mind) to act like he's hanging out in the backyard (and to travel back in time to when he was 12 years old). lol We've had a few dinners at home, too, and he never did anything gross or rude. He was certainly in rare form last night. I really hope I never see those manners again. Oy. I hate to be that girl who "corrects" her man, but I might have to harp on him if I see him act like that again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happyfrank Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Sounds like maybe he is not into you and this is his way of breaking things off with you. He doesn't want to be the one to break things off so he is waiting for you to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jd1983 Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 If it's a one time thing then I'll give him the benefit of the doubt. Just be sure that if it happens again, you will definitely voice your opinions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guynextdoor Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 One too many margiritas for him.. What did he do with the knife after he was done? Scrape the toe jams off of him? Guy is disgusting seriously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
