Date 1

Hello, my name is Peter Marker. I am twenty seven years old and I am single. I want to get married! I go on dates regularly, but something always goes wrong on the first dates. Please listen to my story.

I treat dates very seriously. I have a book “Successful Dates” and I follow everything it says.

It says that girls like men in good shape and that eating a lot of vegetables help men to be in good shape. Onions are a very good vegetable. They are very important for health and kill viruses. So, I ate a lot of onions and went on a date. I didn’t brush my teeth on purpose, so my date could appreciate my healthy lifestyle.

My date was a pretty girl. She had long blond hair, wore a black dress and had red fingernails. Her name was Mary. We went to a nice cafeteria and ordered a lot of food. We were sitting very close to each other and had an amazing conversation.

But unfortunately, after five minutes of such a nice chat, Mary got a call from home. They said that her cat got really sick and needed urgent help. Mary told me that she was very sorry, but she needed to go. I was sad and I had to eat all the food myself.

When I texted Mary the same evening asking how her cat was, Mary answered that the cat was so sick that only doctors in a special hospital in Switzerland could help it. She also said that she was already on a plane flying there with her poor cat, and that treatment is going to be a very long time so they have to live in Switzerland for many years. She said she is very sorry but she can’t date me anymore.

I was upset, because I really liked her, but what could I do?

A month later I saw a girl who looked like Mary in the city center, but when I called Mary, she said that she was still in Switzerland. I had mistaken her for somebody else and I decided to move on.
