Oh, online dating and its randoms. Heh, heh. Had my share of those charming moments!!

Make sure your judgement is on point and don't let yourself get derailed!! I found that online dating didn't work too well for me at the time I was subscribed, but not because I think online dating can't work. It's because I wasn't very good at choosing at that time, or I wasn't ready to choose well. And I wasn't the only one, as I've seen this happen to a few friends too for various reasons.

In situations like this, I often like to reply that I decided that alcohol isn't a worthy investment of my money, time, or energy. So to him I'd add that it's the alcohol that can't be trusted, for everything it wastes.

Now he saying "if you don't meet for a drink, then what else do you do for a date? Sounds boring." (this man is 38 years old, who talks like that? maybe my man-child radar is going off)

I said "I meet for coffee. Then dinner for a second date". We'll see what he says....

Block him & move on

Yea. Probably a good idea to distance yourself from anyone who places that much importance on drinking as part of their screening process for a good partner and/or friend. Sorry dude but trust and drinking actually DON'T go together.

I'll put it like this. If you do arrange to meet this guy, that you obviously think could be a threat to your recovery, who wouldn't you arrange to meet ?
