Date Salvage

You meet a blind date for breakfast with a couple of friends. As a group everyone is chatty and things seem to be going well. Your friends leave so you and your date can get to know each other without the audience. But that’s when he goes silent. You feel you should at least try to make conversation. Bringing up the topic of cars seems safe enough with a guy. But it backfires and he talks about his pet rabbit being hit and killed by a car. He goes on and on and on about it. Just when you think it can’t get much worse he admits the rabbit was killed many years ago when he was 20.

Do you want to salvage this date or does bunny man sound like too much work?
