I'm SO happy I'm not single anymore...listen to what my single GF encountered on Friday...and opinions please.
So one of my closest GF's (and BM's) is 27 and single...very smart, professional, beautiful but can't find the RIGHT guy. Anyway, she's in an upscale bar in Manhattan Friday for Happy Hour and this guy sits next to her at the bar and tells her his name (won't post) and proceeds to tell her the following: that he wrote MatchBox 20's Unwell and Bright Lights, won Best Male Vocalist at the 1997 VMA's where he met his wife who died in the WTC. He's a Harvard grad who wanted to pursue a singing career but got hooked on drugs after his wife's death and ruined his voice. He's 100% clean now, he was in rehab with Billy Joel. His current residence in LA, but he's looking for a place in NYC and while he's looking he's staying at the Four Seasons with his sister, his Jaguar is safe there.
Being a 'little' suspicious of this guy, I jump on Google and find that there is no Best Male Vocalist category during the VMA's and if mistakenly said VMA's instead of Grammy's he wasn't one of the nominees among Sting and Eric Clapton, there also was no woman with his last name killed at TWC (unless she didn't take his name) and if he were this songwriter for MB20 I would think his name would have popped up on Google.
So my friend asks if she should go out with him, I'm like WTF are you kidding me? You should have never given him your # in the first place......did I overreact??

I too am THRILLED not to be single. I have a cousin that age,professional and single and her stories are about the same as the one you posted. It is creepy, this guy dumped her because she did not want to move in with him after 1 MONTH OF DATING.........unreal.................I agree with the masses, that guy sounds like he should check himslef into the funny farm
eta - you friend actually believed that garbage he said to her

BAHAHAHA no offence, but if your friend believed that pile of sh*t then she needs to go out with him...That is too funny. Someone needs to post this guys picture on the internet. He may be nominated for worlds biggest line ever given to a woman at a bar.

If his name is Rob Thomas, than he can be believed. Because Rob Thomas wrote those songs alone.
What an a-hole.

......did I overreact??
Songwriters don't get nominated for vocalist categories....they'd have to SING to do that! DOH - that was a dead give-away right there.
The guy sounds totally certifiable! And NO - you didn't overreact, but I'm afraid your friend might be a bit too gullible.
Re: I'm SO happy I'm not single anymore...listen to what my single GF encountered on Friday...and opinions please.
OMG...tell her NO!!! if this man wanted a serious relationship you can't make those huge boldfaced lies...he is only after one thing!!! and if he is willing to say all those outrageous things...I would be too afraid of what he would do on a date!!
