Well, as I said this was only the second date.. when you're just getting to know someone. She has the right to be offended.. I never explained the full comment to her, she only got the "stereotypical Jewish self-doubting guy" part of it. I moved on in the conversation because I didn't think twice... I simply assumed she understood my intention.
She had mentioned the previous date she lost a lot of family in the holocaust. Obviously she takes her religion and offenses to it seriously, and I understand how I probably hold the taint forever. What almost makes it worse is she repeatedly said she knows it wasn't my intention... but it still can't see me anymore.
I don't know.. as I said she was the first girl in a long time I really liked.
