The issue was not her size, it was the honesty.

Yes ! The same thing happened to me and she was huge. Lesson learned - only headshots or odd angle are out.

Wanna tell you story
About woman I know
When it comes to lovin'
She steals the show
She ain't exactly pretty
Ain't exactly small
Fourt'two thirt'ninefiftysix
You could say she's got it all
Never had a woman
Never had a woman like you
Doin' all the things
Doin' all the things you do
Ain't no fairy story
Ain't no skin and bones
But you give it all you got
Weighin' in at nineteen stone
You're a whole lotta woman
A whole lotta woman
Whole lotta Rosie
Whole lotta Rosie
Whole lotta Rosie
And you're a whole lotta woman

That's what I thought. He's got the brown frown. The evacuation conflagration. The woot shoot. The stink sink. The proud cloud. The log jog. Know what I'm talkin' 'bout?

You mean people lie on dating sites???
Shocking!!!

No, first date and last

He said he would explain but he didn't?

But hey other than that, it sounds like the date went well!

He said he was 56 and had a picture with mostly black hair. When I got to the restaurant he was mostly grey and looked much older. I said nothing but was making mental notes. Then he volunteered that “Bumble got my age wrong.” No, dude, you entered that yourself.

When I walked past his car going to meet him for the date and noticed him sitting in the car, he got out and said that he would explain about the handicap sticker. No kids. We proceeded to walk about the market for an hour.

WTF, why would he think that it was appropriate to use a handicap sticker/spot on a date when you don't need one?

What's your dating story?

The need for a handicap sticker is not always visually apparent (like needing to use a wheelchair). But the fact that this guy was healthy enough to walk around for an hour suggests he just a lazy shyster. That doesn’t fly. DTMF.

I assume you didn't go out again.

OP here. He said that he would explain. I didn't press him. Prior to meeting, I stressed how active I am.

Did he explicitly say he didn't need one? Maybe he does but didn't feel comfortable sharing that info on a first date.
