False Advertising

Several yrs ago I agreed to go on a date with a friend of a friend I had met in a club. In the club he was normal, but i guess it was only because he was drunk. When he showed up for our date he was a different person. We went to my apartment’s games room to play pool. over the course of our game i asked a bunch of questions to get to know him. The whole time he was super quiet…you know one word answers and never looking at me???

When we came back to my apartment to watch a movie i noticed he was actually trembling. When I asked what was wrong he told me he was extreamly nervous to be out with me. So much so that his voice was cracking (by the way he was 27 ) and he really couldn’t stop shaking. This went on for a couple hrs. As we put on a second movie…due to his inability to converse…I grabbed a bottle of red wine. He refused a glass since he had to drive home, and I was so bored I drank the entire bottle. The last thing i remember was sliding down the sofa onto the floor in a drunkin stooper and laying down . Moments later I heard the door close and my date was gone.
