Him: Gd morn pretty lady. U might lose me after just meeting me ugh. The va has me on extended cleanse for my colonosky tomm n it is killin me! Help
Me: boo. At least you'll lose weight. That's always a plus for me Me: I'm going to sleep now (off text I work overnights) good luck! Next day (day2) Him: Know that song rocket man thats me but dont try n picture that lol . Did u know ur being thought about n missed catwoman? Me: how are you feeling? No reply day3: Him: Gd morn sweetness. Having my procedure today. Do u want me to stop contacting you? Me: I hope your procedure goes ......well ..... As well as those things can go ..... I'm getting the creeps. Are bad needy text messages s good enough reason not to go on to date 2? I'm 40-ish and I dont like rejecting people without giving people a chance. Date 1 was okay, but I don't move very fast. He was talking about the type of wedding gifts he'd like....,I'm tripnout. |

| Honestly, he's weird. I'd move on. You don't discuss colonoscopies multiple times with people you don't know well. It kind of seems like he wants to be rejected, weirdly. |

| The overshare klaxon is going aooogah aooogah...this is way too much TMI for a first date, sorry. Might be a nice guy in a rough spot, but a colonoscopy isn't life-threatening and isn't casual conversation. This guy lacks appropriate boundaries! |

| The wedding gift discussion would weird me out more than the colonoscopy talk. |

| After one date, I want to know zero about the details of someone's colonoscopy prep. Heck, I wanted to know as little as possible about my husband's, and we've been together 14 years. |

He sounds unhinged. |

| Jeez, even a loser like me would never send this to a woman after a first date. |

Maybe because I'm a doctor but the talk doesn't creep me out that much. I do think it is weird to only discuss that. The flags I see:
1) Terrible texting, practically incomprehensible 2) Calling you per names very quickly 3) Asking if you don't want to talk to him. Was he awkward on the date? |

| He sounds creepy, plus it took me forever to decipher his messages. |
