Jeans instead of Slacks? Check.
The WaPO reader comments are pretty hard on her.
People take dates way too seriously. Especially among older generations, there's this expectation that unless the date was a complete disaster, you should always have a second date. Nonsense. There's a lot to criticize about how women behave today, but I'd never criticize one for skipping out on a boring dude. Yet because a dude is not a child molester and has a job, she has to say yes to a second time and hope he's more interesting? Fuck that. I hate flakiness, insularity and attention whoring, but I don't blame a girl for walking out on some dorky schlub like this dude.
Of course, this girl sounds like a real piece of work herself (and not in a good way).
Yeah, most American guys, especially those over 30, don't have a clue when it comes to sizing. I was with some coworkers getting a company shirt, and they all requested sizes one to two sizes too big.
