Dealbreakers
I just found out that a guy I've started dating refuses to go see movies in movie theaters. He hasn't given me an explanation yet. He'll go to the theater to see plays, but no movie theaters. Assuming that he doesn't have a really good explanation, like that he got assaulted by a gang of prepubescent ruffians on his way out of the last Power Rangers movie, is it wrong for me to judge him for this? I'm judging already anyway, I just want to know if this will put me a different circle of hell.
If I was head over heels in lust with him, maybe I could overlook this, but wtf? I love going to see movies and I can't imagine not being able to go see new releases with the person I'm dating.
He actually told me that if I want to watch a movie with him, I should tell him a week ahead of time so he can order what I want to see on Netflix. We've only been on a couple of dates, so even if he doesn't like movie theaters, shouldn't he be kissing my butt right now to get me into bed, and saving his weird-ass issues to tell me after the deed is done?
So, who wants to go see Intolerable Cruelty with me this weekend?
