A woman has had it with the man she’s been dating — and others say she has good reason to dump him already.

On theU.K.-based forum Mumsnet,the woman wrote that she has been on two dates with a man who was the brother of a former colleague shehad connected with on Facebook.

Recalling their first date over drinks, the woman said the duo “chatted about general stuff, but it was mainly about his past relationships (both had difficulties).”

“He spoke about dating history (just one [date] who he said was lovely, but they never found the time). He spoke about his band and his 7-year-old son. I did ask him questions, so I suppose that’s why he spoke so much about himself,” she continued.

Before the next date, the woman said she and the man texted, and things were friendly enough. But, the conversation was one-sided, she further explained, before she went on to describe the second date.

Highlighting that she and the man “met again for another drink,” the woman said the potential suitor “chatted again about the (one) date he had been on and how it didn’t come to anything.”

Later conversation, the woman continued, revolved around how it was “nice to get to know each other in person anyway,” though she added, “He didn’t ask further after that comment. We spoke more about his plans for the year.”

Now, the man “has mentioned date three,” the woman continued. “He has messaged to say how much he would like to kiss me. I’d like him to ask more about me. I have no desire to kiss him at this stage.”

She concluded her post, asking, “Am I expecting too much after two dates and back and forth messages for three weeks?”

Another said, “He’s obviously hoping you’re going to adhere to the law of date 3 = sex. Apart from showing zero interest in you and being a bore, beware the man whose exes are all allegedly crazy.”

The Redditor responded to the statements, writing, “I probably already was thinking this but wasn’t sure what’s normal. I’m used to love bombing!”

Others, meanwhile, had a little more hope, with one person adding, “He sounds like he is a surface level guy, and if you don’t fancy him, what’s the point anyway? Maybe try one more date to get clarity, and if he surprises you, so be it.”
