No He Didn't!

I thought I'd experienced some pretty rude behavior on my dating expeditions, but the other day I heard a story that took the cake.

A friend has been doing the internet dating thing (I won't mention which service she is using). She's attractive, early 40's, mom. She's no model, but she looks great...for a 40ish year old.

So, she was e-flirting with a guy, and they decided to meet. She got to the destination early and ordered a glass of wine. A little while later, her guy walked in. He took a look at her, and she smiled. She walked over to her and said "Are you X?" When she said yes, he replied "I don't date liars" and walked out of the bar.

What the $%(?

She was completely blown away. She's also feisty enough to call him later that night and demand to know why he'd been so rude. He claimed she looked nothing like her profile picture (not true), and if she'd lie about that, what else would she lie about. She told him what she thought of that, and of him.

I never had someone walk out the door on me. I can't imagine. I hope he was the exception and not the norm. Would it have killed him to hang out and have a drink? Has anyone else had this experience, and if so, what did you do about it?
