Welp, Mr. Indiandude was too young. Not just agewise... but where-he-is-in-life wise. He's at an age where he loves to go out dancing and drinking when he's not studying. He's got a year till he finishes his Master's. He also had a habit of making jokes that included stereotypes. Not cool in my book. I think he needs some more exposure to African Americans before making sweeping statements about those being most of the homeless in his unviersity town (the 3 homeless I saw there were white), and that to hide something from an African American, you only had to put it in a book.
The trip there and back took at least an hour each way. Normally I wouldn't have made such a gesture. But we got along very well in emails and on phone. He made me laugh. The date itself lasted about an hour, as my parking meter had only that much time left on it. We had lunch at an Indian restaurant. What I thought would be a funny and informative session about the different foods of India turned out to just be a buffet. As he is yet without a car, I took him back to his place and declined his offer to go inside his apartment. Yeah, 23 is too young for me.

Oh my God, I can't believe he said to hide it in a book. It is an old, yet monumentally insulting comment in poor taste on a date! I would've asked him right then, "Do you really think racially derogatory and assinine comments like that are appropriate on ANY level for a date?!?" And then I wouldn't have waited for an answer. I'd have been out the door. Let him walk home.
And anyone that's working on his Master's and only has a year left and STILL goes out and drinks and parties a lot,... you don't need. That's for sure!
At least that's one more down, right? ;)
