She's goneski. I had a quick date thing with another girl that was super into Anime, but she was hanging with the roommate. The situation did not go well for me. Room was a mess and I'd just gotten back from the gym, so my mack state was in disarray. Nothing lined up for this week.

Drat! The dream of making love to a redhead vicariously through Chad has been dashed!

You're going to have to go in to detail about this anime girl thing, I had no idea this happened.

lol this thread is awesome and I hope it encourages all of us to help you find true love.

So, anime girl went on a date with your roommate and then with you? Was that planned or was it a coincidence? I feel like that's some real sitcom shit right there.

I am genuinely rooting for you, Chad. And while your report is less than stellar, I was thoroughly entertained by reading it. I do not see how the ladies will be able to resist your rapier wit for long.

She went on a dinner date with him, then came back to our place to hang out. I didn't think she'd still be there when I got home, but roommie said, in summary, "Chad sucks Chad sucks Chad sucks Chad sucks Chad sucks I'm going to go do stuff so you can have a date with Chad SEE YUH." He was joking around, but it was still super awkward.

I guess it was bound to happen sooner or later since we have similar match percentages on OKC.

Man, seriously, that's really shitty of the roomie and it sounds like this isn't the first time it's happened. You might need to throw in the towel, he's significantly encroaching on the mack game.

I took a gander at this lady's profile and holy shit I remember looking at this person's profile since we're a 90% match. I really don't think she's relationship material unless you like basing your relationship on Japanese cartoons. Here's how things should go in a perfect world:

1) You're both mature, have career goals, and have enough in common so that things don't get stale and overly polite.
2) You're rich, the lady is lazy and wants to be a homemaker but she's a dynamite trophy wife. This is not one of your options.
3) You're both lazy and have shitty low paying jobs. You get down with the muskrat lovin'. You both go into debt and base your relationship on paying off the debt.
4) She's a rich Jewish girl who gets shoe-horned into a high management (usually HR) position at her dad's business, you are the hunky husband. This *could* be an option if you work on it.

Anyway, that's no help. I say keep on trucking and you'll land a lady eventually. Just do not get your room mate involved in any way possible. In fact, I would ditch him completely. You're doing well at meeting people which is pretty much the hardest step IMO. Now you both need to make a good impression on each other. I had such high hopes for Sam_Kabaam but alas, it wasn't meant to be.

I think he was just joking around. No malicious intent involved. Anyway we're roommates and that's that, so I'm not looking for trouble.

You can't shake the devil's hand and say you're kidding. He has slighted you and now he must pay the price.

Unless of course you want him to cuck your shit.

I was kind of thinking that myself. That's what prompted me to ask the question.

I just wanna give a shout out to my main man Chad and his dating adventures. The anime lady turned out to be a firecracker after all.
