How did you meet your lover?

[Janet]

Our first date was a "fix-up" by some mutual friends. The friends lived on the same street as my parents. Their house had a street light right in front. Under this streetlight was a '55 Chevy and it was all different colors. I thought "what kind of wacko drives something like that" and I decided I wasn't going to go. When I didn't show up, they called and said he was there and was waiting. I told them to forget it, I wasn't going to go out with a guy that had no taste in cars. Anyway, they talked me into coming over and when I got there I was RIGHT!!! He had on this light blue shirt and brown corduroy pants. The corduroy was so big and thick, he looked like a bear from the waist down. I stayed for a while and can't remember the excuse I gave, but left thinking I would never go out with this guy. Well, he called the next night and we did have a good conversation and he asked me out. I kept telling him no. He finally talked me into going out, but I asked what I should wear. He said just some jeans would be fine...so I thought he would wear jeans and everything would be fine. When he picked me up, he had jeans on all right....but they had 3 inch peace signs all over them. I was so embarassed I wanted to crawl in a hole. Well we just went out riding around the "strip" and talking with friends so I didn't have to be seen out with him the way he was dressed. We did talk when he brought me home and when he asked me out again, I told him no. I did end up telling him why and he did try to dress better. I started buying him his clothes after that for different occasions and he looked much better. I don't know ladies, but I think I should have followed my first instincts!!!!!
