Date Rate

Another weird past dating experience: She asked me what music I liked, so I named some artists.

Then she said something about she didnโ€™t listen to anything but classical. So I said, โ€œAh, cool! I love a lot of classicalโ€ and then listed my favorite artists and works in that genre.

After that, she got very cold towards me and barely talked. Later on I figured out she was attempting to be superior to me in some way and wanted to hold the โ€œclassical musicโ€ thing over my head to demonstrate that. When I came back immediately in the conversation (this was in person, no phones) with a list of composers and works off the top of my head, she lost that โ€œadvantage.โ€

But if youโ€™re gonna try to hold anything over me in a real-time convo, you better come with more knowledge and understanding than most people have any hope of ever attaining in 10,000 lifetimes. She had no shot. And Iโ€™m glad I failed her stupid little test.
