This past Saturday I had a coffee date with Bachelor 19. First off, I hate coffee dates. They're boring (unless there's some Baileys in the coffee) and they feel like it's a lazy (and cheap) way for a guy to determine if he wants to see you again. I've been on a total of 2 coffee dates and they never blosson into anything. But I digress...
He was a nice enough guy though- 33, lives in Venice (which I am quickly learning that a lot of douchey guys live down there), works in advertising on the creative side, and seemed relatively normal. Was he the most exciting person on the planet? Nope. Did he crack me up with a spunky and fun sense of humor? Nope. Was he cuter than a monkey? Yeah. So why can't I date him you ask?
Two words- Armenian Genocide. Yes friends, Bachelor #19 was from Turkey and one of my best friends is Armenian, therefore I am forbidden to date a Turk out of respect to my Armenian friends (Turkey attempts to deny the Armenian Genocide- so Armenians and Turks are not friends). My loyalty is with Armenia so there's no point in starting something that can ultimately never work out.
I guess in my profile I should put a disclaimer "Turks need not apply."
