Dani’s Dating Disaster
Dani loved many things in life. She loved the smell of fresh morning dew on the grass. She loved singing at the top of her lungs in Church. But there was something Dani loved more than anything else, and that was dating.
For many women, finding a man who was marriage material was like looking for a needle in a haystack. But Dani wasn’t looking for marriage material, she just wanted to enjoy the thrill of the chase.
Of course, a lot of men became so besotted with Dani they popped the question on the first date. Dani hated breaking their hearts, so she always turned them down with a warm smile to try and soften the blow.
One day however, Dani met her match. Leonard was a suave and sophisticated art historian with a chiselled jaw and smouldering brown eyes. He was a sight for sore eyes. After just two minutes of their date, she decided to try her luck.
“Leonard, will you marry me?” said Dani
“Dani you seem very nice, but I’m afraid you’re coming on too strong. Goodbye.”
Leonard stood up, turned around and walked out. At first, Dani was devastated, but after a few minutes she logged into her Tinder app and started swiping.
Further examples:
I was shouting at the top of my lungs, how could you not hear me?
I really like Nigel, but I’m not sure he’s marriage material. He drinks too much and he always sears in public..
Most men aren’t interested in a serious relationship, they just love the thrill of the chase.
Kevin is besotted with his new leather jacket, he wears it everywhere!
Oh no…. I think Nigel is going to pop the question. I love him but he’s not marriage material. I’m going to have no choice but to turn him down, this is awful!
I got fired yesterday, but I also won the lottery so that certainly softened the blow!
Jenna has finally met her match on the golf course. The new girl is a fantastic player!
Brad Pitt is so suave with his cool clothes and chiselled jaw…… and those smouldering brown eyes….wow!
Oh look at her, isn’t she a sight for sore eyes! I might try my luck, she’s not sitting with anybody and there’s no wedding ring on her finger.
I’m absolutely devastated. I really liked her but I think I came on too strong and scared her away, I always do that!
