Subject: Online date goes horribly wrong
Written By: Philip Eno on 05/08/11 at 5:27 am
A Canadian man who arranged a blind date with a woman he met online had a shock - when she turned out to be his girlfriend.
The woman turned up, as arranged, for the date, at a coffee shop in Barrie, Ontario, but from there things went rapidly downhill.
First, she threw a cup of coffee in the man's face - then she slapped him for good measure, reports the Barrie Advance newspaper.
The 49-year-old woman was arrested by an off duty police officer who happened to be in the coffee shop. She is now awaiting a bail hearing.
There has yet to be any comment from either party following the altercation.

A coffee facial? ouch. Although she had no right to be upset, as she was there to meet someone she was talking to on the internet too. Hypocrite!
I was dating/sharing an apartment with a guy once that casually left a postcard on our kitchen table notifying him that his personal ad would appear on the local access channel dating hour. Yeah, I was not very happy, but as things turned out, I should have let him do it, I would have been rid of him much easier, sooner and cheaper if I had. Live and learn.

I wonder if maybe she didn't arrange the meeting on purpose ie set him up to believe she was someone else after she realized/found out he was trolling for women online.... if that's the case...if she set him up then he's totally at fault (although assault is never a good resolution to a problem)
Remember Escape, the Pina Colada song? I was always amazed that the two lovers could meet the way they did and instead of getting pissed at each other actually go forward and rekindle a dying relationship....

That's how I understood the story.
