Dear Princess,
Have you ever stopped to consider that you and your girlfriends may be the problem?
A blind date works both ways. Many men have trouble finding a graceful way of
ending a date with an ugly or self centered woman. By going on with the date you
are just making the both of you miserable. Quit worrying about the free dinner and
free drinks and fake a sudden illness and go home.

DEAR MISS MANNERS -- My girlfriends and I were comparing blind-date horror stories one night over dinner and we noticed a common theme. No matter how rude or inconsiderate our date was, none of us left during the date.Tim Harder
Case in point: I met a blind date at a local restaurant. I was pretty sure there was not going to be a future with this gentleman, but was determined to have a pleasant evening anyway. The waiter came to our table to hand us our menus and my date not only took both of the menus, but put them as far away from me as possible.
I was stunned and a little annoyed, but instead of getting up and leaving, I sat and sipped my water while he ate an appetizer. Miss Manners, do you have any advice for us single girls having to put up with this type of behavior that won't cause us to stoop to the level of our boorish dates?
