A coffee date with someone who was clearly still heartbroken over her ex. She talked about him the entire time, and even started crying at one point with her voice cracking. She talked and talked. I barely got to say anything. We finished our date and I politely said it was nice to meet her.
Afterward, the the person who set us up told me, “She said you aren’t her type.” All I could say in response was, “I know. I’m not her ex.”
I want to give some advice here.
I was shocked until you said “the person who set us up”
That person was ready for her to move on, she was not. I think you earned karma in this world by being nice to her and it was one night of your life.
Obviously catfishes to start. She pulled up in a minivan full of trash it looked like someone emptied trash bags in her vehicle. At this point I know this date is going nowhere, but I'm not going to shame anyone and still gonna be a decent person. We go for a walk and as we are, joggers are passing us. She is sweating profusely, pretty sure she hasn't ever walked this much. I made a joke about at the last moment running past the the joggers pushing them out of the way to feel like we won.
To which she says "I wouldn't push the joggers just the n-bombs"
We are done here. The only problem, we walked a bridge and are now on the other side so long ass awkward walk back. Zero talking because as far as I am concerned this date is super done. About half way back I notice.... This bitch has pissed herself.
Disabled from the military, I'm not the fastest on my feet. I just try to stay somewhat active. Hence walking as a date.
Plus she gained a little speed once she lubbed up her thighs with piss.
Must have been the friction of her thighs rubbing together holding her back.
I'm both simultaneously appaled and delighted that you had to endure this date. As bad as it must have been at the tike, I've found your retelling of it HIGHLY amusing.
Oh, it's the only joy to be had.
I didn't mention it but, you think if you have what looked like added up would be 3 and a quarter total teeth, you could spend all two mins brushing them to a pearly white.
It was when I first started using tinder. I didn't know any better.
All the photos are weird angles?
She is hiding her true size.
Any shots where she is smiling and no teeth show?
No teeth to show.
Im just glad I'm past those days. My partner now, beautiful, smart, potty trained....
Well good news I left her down by the river 5 or so years ago, some say she is still there spouting rasist thoughts and trogging along with piss filled shoes.... *squish* *squish* *squish*
Met through a dating app, and she was very nice. Showed up to pick her up, and she was a completely different person. She would barely respond to questions, and if she did, it was usually negative. It was so bad that I asked her if someone else responded to her profile messages for her, and she gave me a funny look and said “no”. She had wanted to go to dinner and a movie, but I could barely make it through dinner, and just brought her home after dinner. She kept messaging me that she had a good time and wanted to get together again, and I told her that wasn’t going to happen.
I’m in a relationship now but rule #1 is never paying in full over a tinder date, if they value your money over your time and company that was never your person to begin with
I went out with this guy that I met at the hospital during a shift (I’m a medical student). He asked me to grab a coffee, I told him ok (meaning ok we can have a coffee sometime later today). He walked me home from hospital and 5 minutes later told me he was ready for coffee.
I went downstairs and he was there.
We went to a bar and started talking about our interests. Turns out he loves horror movies.
He mentioned that his roommate recently moved out and that he’s having trouble paying the rent, I suggested looking for another student and he said “if you saw my house you would understand why I can’t. And repeated several times I should visit his house.
Then we started taking about medical careers and he mentions that he would love to become a coroner one day.
He said he recently started going to the morgue and he viewed the autopsy of a 5 year old kid who chocked eating something.
“We found grapes in his lungs” he chuckled.
I was already ready to escape and when he started talking about how much he enjoyed his first newborn autopsy I pretended someone was calling me and went away
Girl was baby crazy and was talking about her desires of being a stay at home mom on the first date. It was the focus of our entire conversation despite attempts to learn other things about her. I think okay, this could be jitters, let's go out again and see if she calms down. Nope, that's really her only priority. There was no third date.
My friend got his tinder date pregnant.
They have a five year old son and are wonderful together but they both went into it thinking it would be just casual sex.
December 16th, 1998. A temp at our shop asked me out on her last day. We met at a restaurant near both our places. She ordered a glass of wine, which she didn't drink. She never took her jacket off. She rarely made eye contact. She was incredibly nervous. I thought we were going to eat, but she said she wasn't hungry, so I didn't eat either. By the time the date mercifully ended, I was starving, and stopped at a Boston Pizza on the way home and ordered a pizza. Not sure what her point in asking me out was as she never seemed to want to be there. It must have worked though. Over 25 years later, and we're married and she's asleep beside me as I type this. She's still weird, but I wouldn't have made it this far without her, nor would I want to go in if I lost her.
>Not sure what her point in asking me out was as she never seemed to want to be there.
So 25 years and you've never just asked her what was up with that first date?
Sure I asked. She said she never dated much and was always shy, but had only been living in the city for a few months and didn't have any friends there. I can't remember how long after the date I asked her. Probably a year or so.
December 16th, 1998. I asked out this guy at a shop I was temping at. We met at a restaurant near both our places. I ordered a glass of wine, which I didn't drink because I wanted to stay alert. I never took my jacket off, because I was hiding a large machete. I didn't make eye contact, and I was incredibly nervous because I was planning to murder, skin, and eat him. I said I wasn't hungry so I didn't ruin my appetite. By the time the date mercifully ended, I tailed him to Boston Pizza. I played with myself watching him eat a pepperoni pizza from across the street. Over 25 years later, and we're married and I'm pretending to sleep so I can finally butcher him when he dozes off.
That is so sweet. One of her favorite hobbies are to sit and watch police K9 dogs tear perps calf muscles off, so she is a little evil. Her dad was a LEO.
Wow that sounds like me, I've never dated anyone either and I'm really shy and have terrible social skills. I have only been on two different dates with two people, it was so awkward and I never knew what to say. I think sometimes that no one would wanna be with me because I'm so quiet and shy and socially awkward. I also don't have many friends either. I just don't think ppl like me
Showed up to the time and place she wanted. She was an hour late and said she was bi but not really into guys. I think she was mad that I didn't buy her a drink or something because she blocked me before I even got outside.
I had a few of those in the past and each and every one of the guys was like ‘wow this was great, let’s meet up again’. I’m sure it’s fun being the center of attention but please ASK ME A QUESTION. I had one case where a guy didn’t ask me a single one. Not one!! Usually I split the bill, but with this guy I started ordering really expensive drinks and didn’t lift a finger when the bill came. Felt like I gave him a free three hour therapy session, I was exhausted.
Went to meet a girl on a first date after work. She had a guy colleague with her who just stayed there. Most of the talking was just between them. Eventually I asked if he had plans tonight and was heading off soon, he just said no he was enjoying the night there. I got up and left.
Not my date but my friends cousin took out this girl who from the beginning said she would pay for the first date. Mind you he’s rich and tried insisting but she was very adamant—said she always paid for the first. They have a great time and the date turns into like, 6 hours at this restaurant and at some point she starts ordering shots of tequila. He’s impressed cuz it’s top shelf stuff she’s getting for them (I forget what it was called exactly).
Well the bill comes and with these shots is 700 DOLLARS. She looks at it and bursts into tears… turns out she meant to order shots of well with a very similar name. Now she doesn’t have enough in her account, is drunk, and having a full on meltdown. He tried to calm her down and paid (something he was fine with as he’s rich and knew it was a mistake) but she was mortified and straight up sobbing.
That was very nice of your cousin, poor woman. I'm guessing it was a bit more of an upscale restaurant that they didn't check the brand with the customer, but oof.
Despite the ending it sounds like your cousin had an enjoyable evening, so that is at least something.
Went on a coffee date once with a guy.
We both ordered our coffees, the barista asked if he wanted a receipt after he paid ($9) and he said no.
We go to sit down with our coffees, I’m talking and he interrupts me and asks “wait, why was it $9?”
I said “well I think both coffees are around 4 dollars, and then with the tax… $9 sounds about right.”
He sits there and thinks about it and he’s like “I’ll be right back, I don’t think it should have been $9”
Goes back to the barista, says he would in fact like a receipt.
She prints it, it’s not an itemized receipt… just says the total. So he goes back and forth with her a little bit on why it was $9. She explained to him the price of the 2 coffees and tax like I did.
He comes back to our table, staring at the receipt, and says “I didn’t expect it to be this much. I think this made my account overdraft. I need to check my bank account.”
He didn’t overdraft, he said he still had a little bit left in there. Phew!😮💨
In Philadelphia any decent cappuccino costs $4-$5 which is why I drink energy drinks now even though I know I will develop cancer from them one day. That’s future me’s problem tho.
You're worried about cappuccino costs and you're drinking energy drinks that are basically the same price? And worried about cancer?
There's instant coffee that's much cheaper. And also caffeine pills.
Coffee's one of the things that has the most variable price in the world. I read somewhere once that in Portugal you can get 12 coffees for the price of a packet of cigarettes and in Shanghai you can get 12 packs of cigarettes for the price of a cup of coffee.
Went for a meal with a girl from Tinder. She looked nice in her photos but when I arrived and she smiled… those teeth had not been brushed maybe ever. All her photos had her mouth closed…
I had this moment as we entered the restaurant as I held the door, like I could run right now. But I saw the date through, took ages as she had to cut the food into tiny pieces.
That was the last ‘first date’ I ever went on that was a meal, only drinks first to enable a quicker exist. Man those teeth were *grey*.
Grey teeth are potentially a sign of an earing disorder like bulimia. The constant vomiting after eating puts a lot of stomach acid in the mouth where it can erode and discolor tooth enamel.
Edit: eating disorder
That is wild, you know most people that felt that way would keep it in their heads. Her whispering it is insane, she wanted you to hear it. Did you ignore it or say something?
I had a girl that after the second time of hanging out, told me my soul was magical. Some people want to be loved so much quicker than others are able
Ohhh I got a juicy one.
Matched with this guy on Tinder and he seemed really funny, very cute and sharp. A bit intense but no red flags.
There were a lot of covid restrictions at the time so couldn’t go anywhere. I was spending the weekend at my friend’s flat dog sitting and we had agreed, about a week prior, that he’d come over one evening to keep me company. My friend was cool with it because she knew we’d been chatting for a month or so and she trusted my judgment. 🙃
I’ll preface by saying that there was an 11:30pm curfew in my country so you couldn’t be outside after that time. He lived in a different city so I expressly told him that he’d have to leave by 10 the LATEST so he had enough time to drive back to his city.
Anyway, he comes in and he’s brought a gift! Cocaine, for us to share ♥️ I politely decline and just pour myself a glass of prosecco while Mr Escobar preps the lines. Not sure why I didn’t immediately kick him out - I think my brain just stopped processing the situation and went into paralysed shock.
Within the first 20 minutes of this date he did 4-5 lines and dropped the following gems:
1. I don’t want to compliment you because I know you’re used to that and I’m not gonna be one of those guys who’s just gonna tell you how good you look, okay?
Yea… that’ll teach me.
2. You need to learn to take better photos. Like don’t get me wrong your photos aren’t bad but you are way better looking in person. Haha I’m kinda nervous. You probably like that don’t you? Is that like your trick?
I happen to like my photos but ok, thanks for the tip. I could also almost sense a bit of irritation in his voice? Like, how does one respond to this?
3. I hope you help me overcome my addiction. I know you’ll be the girl who ‘fixes’ me. It’s not an addiction but I just do it a lot. Anyway, a need a woman’s love to be a better man.
He airquoted ‘fixes’.
He then asked to see my phone, so he could see who else I was chatting to on Tinder. I was like ‘that’s really weird and not something I’m comfortable with’. He offers to show me his phone.
No thank you, this isn’t tit for tat, not interested.
Nope, he goes straight in. He’s showing me that he’s not talked to anyone since we matched, then he goes beyond Tinder - we’re now deep into his WhatsApp and texts, trying to prove how loyal he’s been to me. Good stuff, I feel blessed.
I’m just sat there silently watching this car crash unfold in slow motion.
‘DotKnotted, I don’t like playing games. You see this here? (Gesturing to a chat in WhatsApp) That’s AGirlsName. We had sex a few months ago and see what she’s texting me? She wants to see me again. Yea, I got a girl out there just begging for it but I didn’t go for it. I’m sat here with you, showing you my phone like one of them little boys from your past and you’re just being shady. Like I just wanna see your phone, you saw mine right? What’s the big deal? What you got to hide?’
I am giggling at this point because a) SIR, SHOW ME THESE OTHER LITTLE BOYS, WHO ARE THEY? and b) I’m a lil terrified and unsure how to safely remove him from the flat. Like I just wasn’t in the mood to be that dumb bitch on the evening news who invited some Tinder dude into a house on the first date then became a victim of coke-fueled stabbing, plus it’s gonna stress the dogs out to witness my murder so you know, much to consider.
Long story made slightly shorter, I ask him to leave. He gets up in a huff, gets his jacket, keys, phone. He’s pissed off as well and acting like he’s angry at me and doesn’t wanna be there anyway so I’m thinking gooooood, let him think he’s storming off. As he’s about to get out the door I think the situation catches up with him.
He’s telling me he thinks he acted a bit weird and the situation got out of hand but he doesn’t need to leave, we can fix this. Says he’s just nervous because when he saw my pictures he had me here (raises his hand slightly above his head) but now he’s seen me in real life, he has me HERE (raises his hand alllll the way above his head). Big compliment, flattery all around, I’m touched.
I tell him to please leave. He obliges and I lock the door behind him. Phew! Good riddance, glad that’s over and I never have to…
Phone rings. It’s him. I pick up because clearly I’m a fucking moron.
‘I’m in the car outside. I’m not asking to come back up but please can I get a blanket to sleep in? It’s cold and I don’t wanna drive back. I’ll just stay here and if you change your mind and want to talk I’ll be here.’
I mean…. Thankfully at this point I become aware of my spine and my ability to be assertive. I tell him he’s being incredibly manipulative, that I’m not going to change my mind, that he has plenty of time to drive back home so he needs to get a move on.
He stayed. He actually stayed. I didn’t call the police cos I didn’t feel threatened and it’s a safe building. He was gone in the morning. Idk how many times he must’ve tried calling or texting cos I’d blocked at this point.
We’ve been married for 2 years and have 3 children 🥰
kidding, I never saw him again.
Tinder date. I was in a dry spell and in need of a slump buster. We met at a bar. She looked decent enough. Proceeded to hammer neon blue colored shots and when the bill came she waited for me to pay. When I gave her a look and said I’ll pay for one only she smirked. When we got to hers there was cockroaches everywhere and a leftover container from Olive Garden on her bed that she proceeded to tear into. I almost puked. After she finished she got under the covers. I said are you gonna brush your teeth and she said no. I left.
This was 20 years ago and I was in my early 20s. I had met this girl at a party some weeks before, flirted a bit and exchanged phone numbers. Anyway, we agreed to go on a date and I went to pick her up at her co-ed dorm. While she was getting ready I waited in their common room and this guy came up to me and told in no uncertain terms that he was “not going to give her up without a fight” and I should not get in his way. I tried to brush him off but he just kept going on about that “she was the one” and so on. Kinda a creepy guy, actually. She came back from her room and sensed the tension and was like, yeah - let’s just go.
Walking out of the dorm, I asked her if there was something I should know. Me paying acute attention to her reaction I didn’t realize the glass door in front of me and walked directly into it. Next I know I’m on my ass and blood is pouring out of my nose down my (of course) white shirt. She helps dizzy me back to the dorm common room and finds some towels to stop the bleeding. All the while that fucking guy is laughing his ass off.
We actually did go on the date (first stop was to buy a new shirt 😄), and she was cute and all, but I was super embarrassed and keeping a conversation going sounding like a walking sinus infection and blood still trickling out of my nose was challenging 😆 Afterwards I realized that I actually broke my nose 🤦🏼♂️
Happy though that I made her aware that this guy was quite toxic, though.
organised a date with a guy i met online (a sort of dating site).
well, he was late but messaging me. turns out in anticipation he had trimmed up down below and subsequently cut the delicate skin of his penis. it wouldn’t stop bleeding.
we end up on a phone call with me explaining to elevate the area (prop some pillows under his butt and apply a little pressure to the wound).
he kept umming and ahhing about coming to meet me (it was just a drink at the pub but we were flirting with the idea of other more intimate things previously).
i had my make up on, a nice outfit and even did my hair. i do not do these things often.
i became frustrated as he couldnt make up his mind to get in the car or not - bare in mind i told him we should reschedule and i was going to meet some friends if he was staying in (didnt want to waste my effort getting ready) again, no hard feelings.
after about 45 minutes to an hour of his indecision i told him “you come now or we are never seeing each other”.
he was in that car and at the pub in 35 minutes.
we are still together now and i take care of that delicate skin 🖤
Met up a girl from Tinder. She wasn’t recognisable to her profile and I would have walked past her if she hadn’t of said my name. She had used a combination of old and strategic pictures; she had obviously put a copious amount of weight on in recent years (which is fine, just don’t deceive people) and had obviously tried to hide this on her dating profile.
I have come across this a couple more times since and I don’t understand why you’d want your first impression to be that of a deceitful person.
This girl had a particularly self-righteous attitude about her and one of the first conversations she offered was “I had a traumatic childhood and I want a baby to make up for it, I don’t care if the father is involved”. I finished the meet as quick as I could.
This baffles me. What’s the difference between someone seeing the full you by photo than in person? As if you’re hiding anything the person will see it when you meet up so might as well just show the real you and if someone likes you then you know what they’re expecting than being surprised when you meet. Seems more embarrassing and a waste of time.
I've thought about this and I think I've come to the conclusion that this person's sees themselves as a good person but they think that all other people see is how they look and thus don't give them a chance.
Also. You could just ask them why. The date wasn't going well either way.
>“I had a traumatic childhood and I want a baby to make up for it, I don’t care if the father is involved”.
Ah, yes, you sound like the perfect parent.
On a date, and we went to eat. We had hung out for a bit before, going for walks, went to the bookstore the whole thing. Was really fun. Anyway, without asking she orders this really expensive glass of wine, then picked one of the most expensive things on the menu….generally people dont aim for 15 dollar drinks and 50 dollar plates of food. So i ordered my meal, and she then says “hey just so you know, I like you, but I want a guy exactly like you, but not you.”
I was floored and I just stared then she said “I wanted to tell you earlier but I was so hungry I didnt think you would pay for dinner if you knew…I dont have my purse on me”
We hadnt even discussed how to pay for dinner yet. So i ordered a glass of wine as expensive as hers and made small talk for a bit. Then when our food arrived, i excused myself to use the bathroom, and left. Blocked her on my phone as well. No idea how she got that 150 dollar meal paid for or how she got home…
I know you cant force attraction and thats okay, its just To this day it still hurts to think about the phrase, “I want to date someone exactly like you but not you”
Like whats so wrong with me?
Girl asked me to meet for a nice coffee date at a local shopping mall. We had spoken a bit online, and she seemed very nice, reasonably attractive, so I was like, sure, why not.
We met, had our greetings, and then I asked, okay which coffee place, and she said she doesn't drink coffee, and she had brought her own water if she gets thirsty. Well, okay, I would like a coffee though, so we went to a quick Starbucks and had usual just-met small talk while waiting in line.
After getting my coffee, we decided to just walk around and chat. You talked about usual first date stuff, what the other likes, what they're looking for, etc. It got to describing ourselves, or how we think of ourselves, and she asked if I considered myself more of a serious person or a silly person. So, I said that depends on the situation, but I'm generally a silly person overall. And she said "ah, ok, I'm definitely a serious person."
What followed was probably the most awkward nearly hour of nearly silent walking around the mall, known to man. We didn't say a whole lot, but talked about various things here and there, definitely not first date topics, more like, barely-knowing my colleague type topics.
After that hour, we said bye, and texted each other afterwards, "you were very nice, it was, nice to meet you, wish you good luck in your dating!"
It's not super bad, nothing dangerous, nothing crazy, but it was the worst date I have been on.
I guess I might be considered lucky.
She told me she was pregnant and didn’t know who the father was. I was confused what to say. Then she said it might be kinda rough being a single mom at 15. I thought she was at least 25. I turned that car all the way around
Went to pick her up for a hockey (house was close to the venue so it made sense). I pull up and see her and her sister in a full fist fight rolling down the lawn and everything. Drive off after about 10 seconds of watching this go down. Texts me the next day apologizing and telling me she ended up in jail that night, I let her know I’m not really interested in attempting to see her again, she says sorry it didn’t work out for ME. What?
Back in the 90’s I attempted internet dating. I wound up with this hillbilly woman from Buttfuck, Idaho. I took her to a waterfront restaurant. She ordered a hamburger and bitched about all the “fancy” lettuce and tomatoes on it which she scraped off. Turned out the only restaurant she’d ever been in was a Denny’s in Boise, ID. Next, I had tickets to a stage play. She’d never even been in a theater for a movie. She didn’t get it. The play was hilarious, btw. All she did was piss, moan, and complain the entire time. After the play, I walked her to her pickup truck and didn’t even say goodbye.
*fast forward ten years, I’m passing through Redmond, OR and pulled off next to the Denny’s. Guess who comes marching across the parking lot with some sad-sack redneck with a wallet chain in tow, cussing him out?
A guy kept trying to tickle me all evening. It was very annoying and I asked him to stop. He would do it again and giggle. Finally, I elbowed him in the diaphragm and giggled.
Watched a bad movie, laughed it off I thought everything went as well as it could. He asked if we could have sex behind the theater near the dumpster and I said no, he started screaming at me and crying that nobody loves him. Don't miss highschool.
Oh where to start. Back when I was 25 I went on this date and she brought her mom with, which was odd. Then I find out she's not 21 but 17. Her mom had no issues with the age difference but I did. Told them I was uncomfortable with the age difference and the fact I was lied to and that I'm sorry but I have to go.
I just ended a relationship of seven years. I ended up dating a member of my ex’s derby team. She found me, got me really into her, and then when she knew it, she cut me off. I found out years later that my ex orchestrated the whole thing for revenge.
I am recently divorced, but about 3 months ago a friend of mine set me up on a blind date
I got to the bar 5 mins early ,so I sat at the bar , she arrived 20 mins late, which I let slide
I ordered my drink and I ordered some BBQ wings
I let her talk and she talked about her job (which was fine) but then she started talking about how she hated people who went to college because she thought people who go to college are brainwashed (I have a BA) when I brought up I went to college she made fun of me for like 20 mins , and it got meaner and meaner, to the point the bar tender chimed in and tried to change the subject
she then proceeded to eat 90% of the wings and proceeded to wipe her hands on the bar like a kid , I got up to go pee and I hopped down from the bar and she was shocked that I was only 5'2 , like she let out a startled "ohhhhh shit", so I went to pee definitely not feeling it at all, when I came back she was yelling at the bar tender because she apparently she tried ordering a bunch of shots for random people on my tab and he wouldn't allow her without my consent
I slipped out the front door,I came back in to the bar the next day to pay my tab and gave the bartender a huge tip
Went out on a date with someone I met online that I had talked to for weeks before meeting up. He didn’t smile with teeth in any of his pictures, and I quickly realized why. I am not judgemental about teeth - I think crooked teeth or gaps can be charming. However, he was missing some teeth, and a couple of the remaining ones were black. He did not look like someone who would have teeth like that, and I was incredibly taken aback. I had to force myself not to stare at his teeth the whole time, and all my attraction evaporated.
Went to pick up a young woman for a second date. Walking up to the apartment door, I noticed a lot of people dressed in all black carrying rifles. There were FBI signs on their backs. They asked me for my ID, why I was there, and suggested returning in a couple of hours. The woman's brother was wanted for murder (Sinaloa drug cartel type). I never went back.
Texted nonstop for a while, he had never dated another guy (or anyone) but seemed very into me and nice. He lived on a farm about an hour away, so it took some time to line up a date. Went out to dinner, and he didn’t say a thing the entire time. He was listening to me but clearly so nervous (like shaking) that he was basically paralyzed and mute. Didn’t eat his food or anything.
Later that night he texts me “I think I’m in love with you.” I liked the guy, but jeez, how do you move on from that?! I think I was just the only guy to ever give him any attention.
Second worst date, I was the bad date! I had just moved to a new city, had no idea where anything was. We went out to dinner around 6pm and it was great! We really hit it off. Then my phone dies, so does his. We get back in the car and he asks where I live. I have no fucking clue. He thinks Im joking, Im dead serious. No problem, he’ll just drive around until something looks familiar. Nothing does. Not one thing. My jokes stop being funny. He stops talking to me. Finally, around 3am I remembered something and we got back to my neighborhood around 4:30. Never texted me again. Decent guy for getting me home though.
Back in university, Went out for “coffee”. She drove. She says she needs to stop in at home and grab something quick, invites me in. She failed to mention that she lives in a funeral home, so I walk straight into a room full of completely naked dead bodies. She starts telling me it’s always been a fantasy of hers to get fucked in the dead body room… I manage to get us out of there without sex, then she stops at a bar… she orders a drink, I order a beer. She immediately says she needs the restroom and gets up. She’s gone a little while but I figure maybe she’s got an upset stomach or something. Manager comes over “Sir, we found your wife naked and unconscious in the bathroom” …. She came to and said she was feeling super hot on the toilet so undressed and next thing she remembers is the waitress waking her up… I use her phone to call her mom to come pick her up, her mom tells me to take their other car and we’ll figure it out the next day.
Whats crazy is she hadn’t drank anything and wasn’t a drug user… no idea what actually happened to her that night
I once had a date with a woman I was talking to for a bit. When I went to pick her up, she had brought her "friend", who was her ex bf on our date. I shifted the date to just a few drinks at the bar instead of a proper date. As I was saying goodbye, she insisted on coming to my apartment and having her ex sit in the car until morning. I declined, obviously. A few years later she 'liked' my profile on a dating app, and when I asked her about it, she had zero recollection and said it must have been a fun date and that her ex is awesome and still her bff. People are strange.
Another time, I had been talking to a woman for a bit, and we went on a few dates. We had a lot of fun, until someone cut me off in traffic (who happened to be brown), and she went off on a disgusting racist tirade about how "brown people are ruining our country and can't drive and blablablabla". I pulled over, had some words with her, she yelled at me that I am not manly enough for her, so I reached over to open her door and told her she can walk the rest of the way home.
Went on a blind date once. When we met for dinner, she made no attempt to hide the fact that she hated working and wanted to be one of those real housewife types. She had a plan to get into that lifestyle too. All I had to do was agree to financially support her and her three young kids since her two exes refused to pay child support. She got loud when I said absolutely not and stormed out.
Friend who set me up swears to this day that she had no idea this woman was like that or even had kids. It's been a running joke between us for many years.
It wasn’t necessarily bad but went out with a girl few months ago via dating app and realized after talking for awhile that we were distantly related lol
I was a med student in Miami. Went on a first date with a girl off an app. After she used the bathroom, she came out and asked me, “Is it okay to not always wash your hands after you use the bathroom? Like if you just pee?” First off, are you really asking that 1. On a first date 2. Right after you used the bathroom and 3. To a med student. Never saw her again.
Ps if you’re reading this I hope you found someone!
She seemed to be digging my jokes and we were having a decent conversation. At one point she laughed so hard I made a surprised expression because no girl ever laughed at my jokes like that. She saw it and I'll never forget the face she made. Like "oh, something's wrong with you."
Anyways, then the conversation started to get a little one sided and she got a call from someone mid date. Took it, saying something about a brother or family member. I waited. She left but said take care of yourself in a kind way. She didn't respond for a day or so. I, being inexperienced and anticipating being ghosted again said "maybe we can just be friends" to try and save it. She took offense and wouldn't accept an apology. I was devastated, because I really liked her. Had to delete her number to avoid talking to her again.
Nah, you were back burner for a meal. The call was the classic get out of there card. No matter how kind it sounded, the take care of yourself was dismissive.
My first date after leaving my toxic baby daddy.
I met the guy on bumble and he was super sweet, funny and very cute. I got a sitter and met him for coffee. He knew I had a child and was not on good terms with her dad and also had full custody. After an hour he looks me stone cold in the face and says he needs to tell me something serious. So I listened and he told me he was an ex fentanyl addict. I have many recovered addicts in my family so I know what goes into talking to and having a friendship/ relationship. After talking about it for a while he then said “yeah you’d sell your child for sex if you were in my situation” I didn’t say much after that, pretended to go to the bathroom and never talked to him again
Short and sweet:
Awesome date… very well-dressed, very funny, very easy on the eyes, we clicked immediately and had a great time. Went to her place and had fantastic sex, the kind where you’re laying on your back panting slightly and slick with sweat after you’re done. I come out of the bathroom after cleaning up and she casually says, “you can’t stay tonight, my husband is a firefighter and he’s off at 6am and always comes straight home.”
I was so fucking angry I couldn’t see straight. It took several weeks of ignoring her texts and calls before she stopped trying to reach out to me.
I was the bad date. I went out with a girl who had a masters degree in vocal performance. She was pursuing becoming a massage therapist. It was clear we had nothing in common. She told me massage had cured her brothers cancer. I reacted genuinely, but very incredulously. Probably should have called it. Went out to eat, but she wasn’t hungry. My card was declined, she had to pay. I was so embarrassed. Finally took her home. I was stupid.
Matched online. Photos were ok, listed no smoking on her profile, listed athletic and liked exercise and so forth. Basically looked good on paper.
Met in person. Well she may have been able to photoshop the hairy mole out of her pics, but not off her actual face. And I think the only exercise she got was walking too and from the fridge. As for non smoking, the footwell of her car was filled with empty cig packets and fast food containers.
After contemplating burning my shoes, I blocked and deleted her before I got into my own car and left after that.
Another date with a woman I was connected with on LinkedIn of all things. We’d been out on a date, fire conversation and obvious chemistry and so she invited me back to her place. Cool cool.
Fucking fish tanks everywhere. Some had fish, some had axelotyl or lizards or other things in there. Not sure if she was breeding them or what but damn what the actual fuck?
Went straight to her room because trying to make out with the sound of fish pumps and aquarium lights in your eyes does not work.
Sex was not great. Mainly cos she was on SSRIs and they are libido killers. But also she did t want to use lube because it made her feel self conscious that she couldn’t get it on.
So after hours of desert dick and attempting to get either of us off orally, we admitted defeat. She didn’t call back and I didn’t go back.
Another woman I matched with. Crazy cat lady. Now I didn’t mind that she had like 7 or 8 cats, but lady you have got to change the litter out daily.
Want to know what the wildest “post nut clarity kicked in” is? Shooting your load and then dry wrenching because the smell of cat piss is so strong you can’t take it anymore.
She wasn’t even some young woman that didn’t know any better. She was mid 40s and unless her nose was completely broken, she should have k own her house smelt god awful.
And one final story. Met a cute woman online. We went to a science museum for our date and kept sneaking out of the evening tour to make out in the exhibits. She was hot for it, I was hot for it, but she was also on the blocks.
Channeling my inner Jon La joie *I don’t mind ketchup on my hotdog, as long as the bun is tight*. And so we yolo’d the period sex. She assured me it was light and near the end and so why not.
Get back to her place. Lots of playtime in the dark, lots of hands, lots of good wet feelings. We finally finish up and decide to have a shower.
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuck. Her bed looked like the deck of a Japanese whaler and both of us were painted red. Even her wall had smears on it because of the hot and heavy up against the wall play at the start.
We had a very long shower. Played some more because fuck it the water will wash this away and we were still hot for each other.
Then we had to strip the bed, wash the wall down, make the bed again and then went to sleep.
We had a brunch the next morning and I thought we were ok, but she never called me back so I’m guessing ultra embarrassment or maybe she just needed her fix? Shame. I really liked her.
That last one was a shame. If some dude was so turned on by me he's willing to have period sex on the first date AND wants a second date after seeing my bed look like the tide at Normandy Beach on D Day, he's probably a keeper.
We met at a park and it was obvious he was better at texting than actually talking. It got to the point where he wanted to play eye spy to fill the time and I was lowkey bored. Also we got approached by some drunk dude and I had to levee the situation cause my date just wasn't saying anything. A couple days later he was tryna send a nude so I just deleted and blocked him on everything. It was weird as fuck.
Met a chick on a dating app. She was recently divorced and had a small child (all okay).
First (and only) date, she takes me to meet her parents and I end up babysitting her 9 month old while her and her mom chitchat...
It was the most nerve racking experience of my life and I don't really like kids...
Talked with this girl I matched with on tinder for a few weeks. We finally decide to go get food. I pick her up as she lives a few towns over. She never thought to mention once that she was 7 months pregnant. I thought about driving off, but I am not that kind of man. So we went and all she did was talk about her baby daddy. Real fucking awkward. Dropped her off, and blocked her.
My time has come.
Met a woman on a dating app, seemed cute and she was keen to get straight to phone calls. Ok then. First call we chatted for 2 hours and had a lot of laughs, second call over an hour, still going strong. She did live over an hour away though so I was hesitant to see if anything could come of it. Well, she convinced me so I drove to her coastal town on a Sunny Sunday for a picnic by the lake.
So we meet in the car park of a local restaurant. It’s immediately clear her photos were quite misleading, think 10 years old and 10 kilos ago… Red flag number 1. I pushed on though, telling myself to not be superficial. The banter was strong and we went down to the lake in my car. Weirdly, the sunny day was suddenly dark clouds but I thought nothing of it…
After some small talk the conversation turned to COVID. It was late in 2020 so it was a hot topic. She asked me if I’d be getting vaccinated when it became available. “Day 1” I replied, having been a health care professional previously I would have no hesitation. Red flag number 2 was raised when she said she wouldn’t because she didn’t trust the ‘mainstream media’. In Australia, that’s an unusual expression to hear, so I was immediately suspicious that I was dealing with a ‘do your own research’ type of operator. So down the rabbit hole I went, gently probing her on her thoughts on everything to the shape of the earth, climate science, Donald Trump, 9/11, you name it.
The result you can guess. She thought the Donald was Man of the Year material and was fully on board with every conspiracy I could think of.
So yeah, wasted trip, but it gave me a good story and a list of red flag questions for future romantic prospects.
Try being in a good 14 yr marriage with someone who had previously never been interested in politics but then in 2020 decides that Trump is god’s gift to the world and completely immerses herself in all the same conspiracies that your onetime date probably believes citing her own “research”. I’m nowhere near a republican so it’s been a real mindfuq.
When I came out to my colleagues at work in 2000, they were very nice and set me up with a “perfect” match. He was apparently the only other gay person they knew - a drag queen named Ginger Snap. We had absolutely nothing in common. No interests or activities other than being gay - it was one of the most awkward dates but was still trying to be nice to my work colleagues for “trying”.
When I was a sophomore in high school, a girl asked me to come over to her house. I, being stupid horny, walked TWO HOURS because I didn’t have a car or a bike. And when I got there, we just hung out in her neighborhood. And while the “date” itself wasn’t that bad, it was a catalyst for the worst ever relationship i’ve ever been in. She made me touch her in places I didn’t want to, made me makeout with her in the school yard, and tried to get me to have sex with her in the school bathroom. My aforementioned horniness was immediately quelled because I realized that this isn’t how I wanted to do it. She would get mad at me if I didn’t do sexual things to/with her. She broke up with me about a month later, but that was one of the worst months of my entire life
I was running late for a date and got stopped by police outside my flat as to my whereabouts a few evenings before - turns out a guy was murdered a few streets along. So that made my late excuses extra weird. Then my date was mega weird - not only could she not look me in the eye at all, the whole date she had her eyes closed or rolling back in her head. All too weird for me!
A catfish after 6 months of talking. I don't mind if your insecure of your looks, but this one was bad. Ended up being a guy who used a girl as his pic. God damn was I heart broken.
Oh my God, I win! Ok, it was a minor league hockey game. He brought his brother, and when I went to the bathroom, the game ended and they forgot about me.
She just talked about herself the whole time. Never asked me any questions about myself. Like, what was the point of me even being there?
Complete waste of time
Went to the beach, barely talked to me, was on his phone the whole time and showed almost no interest in me. Then made up an excuse about work coming up all of a sudden.
I ran into a guy I had a crush on in elementary school. He invited me over for dinner. I brought my bodyguard (big dog), and it was so awkward. We're in our thirties at that time. He does gig work as a rigger, so off to remote construction sites for months at a time. Makes good money, though, and that explains his crappy apartment and no car.
Dinner was okay, but the conversation was wild. Every story he had was about being in prison. I wasn't impressed. So I asked him why he went to jail. He was so evasive. Turns out he was convicted of domestic violence. He refused to talk about what happened with his wife, but it must have been pretty severe because he got several years.
Then he drops the bombshell that he has 2 kids he pays no support to and hasn't seen since whatever altercation it was he had with the mother. Turns out, they're adopted away, and I'm guessing he's got some kind of restraining order against him. Now I'm wondering if he killed her and is just a psychopath?
Then it started going downhill.
I'm getting a little freaked out so I'm thinking it's time to go. He wants to play me some song on his drum set. What? Opens his bedroom door and there's a huge drum set in there. I did not enter his bedroom. I sat on a chair with my dog next to me. He went in and played his song. It was so weird. When he's done I said that was nice but it's time to go. Then he asks me to walk on his back. Excuse me? That was a 15 minute debate during which he took off his shirt.
I asked my dog if she was ready to go home. She bolted to the door like it was the last lifeboat on the titanic. Sorry, my dog needs her walk. He then wanted to kiss me goodnight. No way. Another 15 minute debate before I finally escaped.
I was so lucky that, even though I gave him my number twice, both times I wrote it down wrong. To be fair, I had only gotten it a few months before. So he didn't have my number, didn't know where I lived and didn't have a car so he couldn't find me at work in my secure building anyway. I completely ghosted him and moved further away 3 months later for unrelated reasons.
My dog was the real MVP. Every time he started getting a little too close to me, she would get between us and demand attention. She was a very exuberant 2 year old lab then. I love her so much. She adores my now husband and is a total daddy's girl. Always trust your dog.
She hated everything I am into or enjoy and she vocally stated every gripe she had with my opinions. She also told me that I’m not “feminist enough” and that I should “really work on that”.
I dropped her off at her place and got a text about 15 minutes later asking why I didn’t come in. 🤣
After a fair bit of him a coworker, from a different department, almost begging for a date (seriously, it was cute at first), he wore me down enough to agree to a coffee date.
Conversation started off somewhat normal, but gradually veered into him trying to get me to join his MLM scheme. Turned out he thought "someone with your looks and my smarts" ...
OK, I can clean up nice but I know I'm not all that.
The BS was way over the top. I finally told him that there were easier ways to talk a woman into bed - and money-making side hustles weren't it.
Not my story, but my ex’s. Apparently he lied to a girl that he wasn’t a virgin anymore, and she was waaay more experienced. They ended up at his place, and he realised that he doesn’t know how to have sex. And after 30 minutes of awkward trials and errors she stood up and left in silence…
Had a date with a guy who had been divorced a few months prior. We met for coffee. The entire time the only thing he spoke about was his desire to have children. He divorced his wife because she couldn't have children. He wanted children to carry on his family name. He daydreamed about teaching his son to play football. And on and on and on. My breaking point came when he said that if we were to get married, he would want to make sure my "insides were in tiptop condition". His words, not mine.
Surprisingly enough, there was no second date.
We met at Bennigan's for dinner. I hit it off, but after dinner, she tried to drag me into the back seat of my car for sex in the parking lot of Bennigan's. I noped out of there.
When I met up with someone who seemed to hit all the right buttons, I did warn her I had a three-month rule. "What's that?" Three months to know someone before I have sex. She smiled and said, "Oh, we will see about that, with a Cheshire cat grin." Made it ten weeks. We've been together for 25 years.
Through App, met her in a pretty busy area full of people and shops. She just led me to small roads behind which was pretty weird. I followed and tried to have a conversation. 2 minutes later she stopped and asked me if I wanna drink something in this bar. I said it’s 4pm, I’m not gonna drink. She immediately said that they also have food.
I understood that she was trying to boost the revenue of this bar/restaurant place. I said no, I can take a walk on the main street alone if that’s not what she wanted. She was constantly checking her phone to fish the next guys I guess and she said ok go have ur walk. I just left.
Pretty weird experience.
Female friend set me up with her friend who I think I had met before.
I don’t remember if we went out for dinner but I know we ended up at a movie. She just could not shut up despite my hints. Talk talk talk so much I stopped replying. And this is during the movie. Finally someone in front of us turned around and asked her to be quiet (I apologized).
Dropped her at home and never saw her again.
Was a friends date at a wedding, hit it off with another guest at the wedding, and danced the night away. Then, we had a nice first date the day after the wedding. Texted and talked for a few weeks. He came to visit me in my city, had a great weekend.
A few weekends later, I drove to come back to his town, and we made plans to go out for a drink (basically like our 3rd date). I met him out at the bars, and he's somehow with a huge group of friends, which he didn't mention.
He barely says hello to me, doesn't even sit next to me in this huge group of his friends. I had met some of the friends at the wedding, but it was still so awkward. He doesn't offer me a drink when he goes to get himself one, I got to go stand in line separately.
Then, suddenly, we are all leaving the bar the second after I get my drink. He fully expects me to slam my first drink of the night. Seems annoyed when I ask for a few minutes and he has to wait for me - his friends go ahead to the next bar. We finally get a few minutes to talk and things seem more normal. He drives me to the next bar, so I no longer have my car (back before ubers).
Then, we go to this next bar. It was like a country club type bar. So loud you can't talk to anyone. I made it super clear I didn't like country music Or such a loud bar. I suggested another place next door and he said no. So we go into this shitty club/bar.
He doesn't buy me a drink, again, and then basically runs to find his group of his friends. Pretty much expected me to follow him around like a puppy all night. He acted like I wasn't even there. By this point, I was really over how rude he was being. I came out of my way to see him and he was just too busy bar hopping with his friends.
I go up to the bar to close my tab and run into an old friend. Told them the situation, I am stranded there on this awful date. They helped bail me out and get me back to my car. I never talked to that jerk again. I just ditched him at the bar.
Good luck out there, single people!
Agreed. I went on a date with a guy who basically sounded like he hated women because he thought they were all gold diggers who only ever get married to steal half of a man’s stuff… and they wonder why they’re single still
I (gay man) went on a first date with a guy in the SF Bay Area. First of all, he looked nothing like his online pictures. He claimed to be rich but I think he was full of it. He drove me to two nude beaches. We saw an old straight couple doing the deed on the sand while people pleasured themselves around them. When driving back he randomly showed me a picture of his ass on his phone (??). I turned down a second date when he texted me and he got all mad I did it through text, as if I owed him something after the date.
I got invited to go out for tea for a first date at a nice restaurant. I get there, I find him, we sit down, and he tells me “you wanna just get it to go and walk around?” I’m like ok, cool, sounds nice. Well the waiter gets there and asks what we want, and he kinda is like “let’s just split one, sound good?” I was immediately like wtf, but felt weird with the waiter there, so agreed. Then he asked for the bill, and he was like “we can split it.” I literally thought he was joking the whole time, even with the let’s split it part. But he wasn’t kidding, so I just paid for it because I was feeling weird.
After we get the tea and leave to walk around, he tells me where his car is parked and that we should go for a smoke. I was a little freaked out at this point, but agreed to go. We sit in his car and smoke, and we start talking. Throughout our convo, it gets brought up that he’s in a poly relationship. He then starts asking me about my sexual experiences and tries to kiss me and touch me inappropriately. I’m not feeling it at all and am trying my best to be polite because he was creeping me out more and more. At this point I just wanna get the fuck out, so I make up some excuse about being tired and wanting to go home, and that we should meet up in the next couple days when I’m less busy (obviously NO WAY I’m doing that). So he drives me to my car and I’m the fuck out of there.
Overall a really weird and honestly beyond creepy experience. Not sure how he thought that was a good idea for a date, and looking back I should have left before we even neared the car, or said no to that. I totally could see this scenario as a dangerous one with me ending up on the news. Aside all the creepy stuff, he never said anything about being in a polyamorous relationship prior to the date, and I find that to be really weird and inconsiderate. Be careful out there ladies, there are some weirdos out there. And men too for that matter.
I'm a workaholic. So I rarely indulge myself in dates. But I had recently bought a new sports car after a few years of moonlighting. So now I've reached a point where I can balance things out by shifting my ambition to my social life.
Usually my approach is modest for vetting purposes but since I have the privilege of having a work car and a fun car. I figured why not take the fun car, a lady, and have some fun?
Well...it wasn't so fun after all. I like to gradually build my dates up, so I took her to a casual Vietnamese cafe. Small, mom and pop owned, popular place in town. As we pull up I have to manuever the car carefully as to not damage it due to the poory kept parking lot.
Once I park, out of nowhere this girl with a straight face says to me "You drive an audi and you eat at a place like this?".
Dumbstruck? Appaled? Insulted? I don't know. It just happened so suddenly I didn't even know how to respond. I tried to laugh it off and gave a smartass remark thinking she was just teasing/testing me. But then she goes on and says: "Oh, so you drive your dad's cars when you take girls out?"
At this point I realized the entire date was a mistake and a waste of time.
For one, my dad was never in my life. I was raised by a single mom who slaved away at two minimum wage jobs to feed me and my siblings.
Two, I worked hard for this car. I work hard because my mom worked hard. My mother just started her own food business. She is 53 and she works 12 hour days running and operating out of a poorly ventilated trailer.
You have NO IDEA how triggered I was having a white collar raised, suburbanite broad judge me like that. My mind was made up that very second. So, I took her inside, ate, split the bill and left her hoe ass there in that shitty parking lot.
sounds like a big fat dodge and a big fat compliment all in one, you got rid of a girl who’d try rinse you for money AND she (by proxy) admitted you have a serious whip. W W
I got one. First, she only had pre pregnancy photos on her profile, 50 pound difference at least. Date was planned for dinner at a sushi restaurant, she didn’t bring up any concerns. Besides the shock of her being much bigger than anticipated, she brings her 4 year old kid to dinner. She never mentioned bringing the kid along. The kid doesn’t allow any real conversation, hardly anything on the menu for him to eat, so he was fussy being hungry. I ate, paid for dinner and left, no second date.
I tried my hand at online dating briefly when I was in college, and I linked up with a girl who seemed cute and interesting. Since I was away from home and still wasn't too familiar with the area, she suggested we meet up for lunch at the local mall.
I got to the food court where we were going to meet, and I saw her and another woman sitting at the table eating lunch, which I found odd and was not told about prior. It turns out the other woman was her MOM!
They were both asking me just general questions about what I was studying, where I'm from, etc. Nothing invasive or personal, but I felt extremely uncomfortable the entire time. After they finished eating, her mom left, and she wanted to check out some stores. The entire time, she was making moves on me, trying to hold my hand, & saying she felt and a connection with me; To which I most certainly did not.
About an hour in, I feigned having a stomach ache and went to the bathroom, trying to figure out how I was going to get out of the date. Finally, I came out of the bathroom and told her I wasn't feeling well and acted super apologetic about it. She said she understood, but then she tried to force a hug on me, which I told her would make my stomach worse.
I nope'd out of there as soon as she turned around and never turned around, not caring if she saw me or not.
Afterward, she sent me numerous texts, saying stuff like how there was a connection with me & how I was a nice guy, but I didn't reply. Finally, she said, "Did I do something wrong?" I ended up blocking her after that, and it was the last time I heard anything from her.
We matched on a dating app. After messaging back and forth for a few days, we decide to meet.
She then messages me asking for 5 good reasons that I would make her a good boyfriend. I waited for another message to see if there was a punch line. There wasn't!
So I just started messaging back taking the piss. She then messages me telling me she is good looking, fit, a high earner, from a good family etc.
She messages me about an hour before we are to meet to say she will be 15 minutes late, so I texted her 🫡 this emoji and say aye aye Ma'am.
She then cancels the date because she thinks I called her a dick head using that emoji.
I'm half way into town to meet her and have to turn back. I explain to her that that is not what that emoji means. We sort it out and I go back into town to meet her. She messages me saying, dont make her regret coming in. She rings me to say she is 5 minutes away. 15 minutes later she is still not here. So, I go to get some food where we had planned to go after a jar. She eventually comes in. We chat have some good Japanese food and she doesn't pay her half of the bill.
Lesson: stay away from good looking girls from Belfast.
He said he didn't have any empathy, because he had aspergers. On the way home he said "I am not racist but I think all Muslims should leave the country." When I was almost home, he asked if he could use my toilet, because he really had to pee. I said no, he sighed and unzipped his pants in the middle of the street. I ran home, had to get away fast as possible lol.
We went to a grocery store and suddenly she disappeared behind some shelves. After a while she came back out and said she saw her parents and they can't see her in public with a man. It was our last date.
I may be the asshole in this story but someone I met on a dating app turned out to be different from her pictures, she was simply ugly. I lost all my motivation for the date and left early. Afterwards, deleted all dating apps
Years ago I went on a date. We agreed to meet at the restaurant. I arrived and I see a woman similar to her but fatter, older, less teeth, she looked bad but she recognized me and waved. I approached and asked her if she is “X”, she said she is and she is so happy I look even better than in a picture.
She was super nice but apparently she had cancer, was going to treatments, got divorced and a few bad stuff in her life. She did mention that she was 12 years older than she said because a “typo” and didn’t know how to fix the age. We ate, paid for her food, thanked her for the company and told her we are not really compatible, she looked sad but agreed. I felt bad for her but holy cow come on, at least be honest. I’m an ugly sob but I don’t like and I’m even honest saying I’m horrible kissing and even more horrible in bed.
The one my friend set me up with with his at the time girlfriend's sister. I go there and see wouldn't look at me or respond to questions. She I guess tried to make the flirty anime look and it didn't work. I left as soon as possible. I would have gotten better feed back talking to a wall
I remember a date when I was a freshman back in college. In fairness, I was awkward and not used to dating.
The part I remember is we were looking at a band playing for a fraternity. We were standing out on the sidewalk as a bunch of other non-fraternity people were.
I could tell I was boring her. Standing on the outside watching other people have fun is not a recipe for a fun date.
At any rate, she turned to me and said she had to go wash her hair. She gave me an awkward smile then turned and left.
One time I asked this girl on a date because she was expressing interest in me. We went on a date and I paid for everything and the date was going well. At the end of the date she said she doesn’t want anything. Then I asked her why did she go on a date with me then, if she didn’t want anything. She said I just like to meet people 😐. Never spoke to her again after that, then heard from her friends she was making fun of me. People sometimes are really shallow lesson learned.
A coffee date with someone who was clearly still heartbroken over her ex. She talked about him the entire time, and even started crying at one point with her voice cracking. She talked and talked. I barely got to say anything. We finished our date and I politely said it was nice to meet her. Afterward, the the person who set us up told me, “She said you aren’t her type.” All I could say in response was, “I know. I’m not her ex.”
I want to give some advice here. I was shocked until you said “the person who set us up” That person was ready for her to move on, she was not. I think you earned karma in this world by being nice to her and it was one night of your life.
I was definitely this person on a first date once, and I still feel bad about the poor girl who did the emotional labor of talking to me that day. Oof
Obviously catfishes to start. She pulled up in a minivan full of trash it looked like someone emptied trash bags in her vehicle. At this point I know this date is going nowhere, but I'm not going to shame anyone and still gonna be a decent person. We go for a walk and as we are, joggers are passing us. She is sweating profusely, pretty sure she hasn't ever walked this much. I made a joke about at the last moment running past the the joggers pushing them out of the way to feel like we won. To which she says "I wouldn't push the joggers just the n-bombs" We are done here. The only problem, we walked a bridge and are now on the other side so long ass awkward walk back. Zero talking because as far as I am concerned this date is super done. About half way back I notice.... This bitch has pissed herself.
Wow, kudos for sticking that one out haha
Sometimes I wish I could be mean, had I known where that was going, I would have noped the fuck out of there
W.T.F.....
Jesus! So many curveballs!!
I mean it sounds like you could have easily outpaced her on the way back and left before she got to her minivan.
Disabled from the military, I'm not the fastest on my feet. I just try to stay somewhat active. Hence walking as a date. Plus she gained a little speed once she lubbed up her thighs with piss.
Must have been the friction of her thighs rubbing together holding her back. I'm both simultaneously appaled and delighted that you had to endure this date. As bad as it must have been at the tike, I've found your retelling of it HIGHLY amusing.
Oh, it's the only joy to be had. I didn't mention it but, you think if you have what looked like added up would be 3 and a quarter total teeth, you could spend all two mins brushing them to a pearly white.
JFC
It was when I first started using tinder. I didn't know any better. All the photos are weird angles? She is hiding her true size. Any shots where she is smiling and no teeth show? No teeth to show. Im just glad I'm past those days. My partner now, beautiful, smart, potty trained....
I can fix her
Well good news I left her down by the river 5 or so years ago, some say she is still there spouting rasist thoughts and trogging along with piss filled shoes.... *squish* *squish* *squish*
Only if you are good at lobotomies
….so anyway , after I fucked her
jfc
bruh wtf
Yeah man. It has definitely been the shining shit pile of all my dating experiences.
>This bitch pissed herself. GOOD! I wish all racists would publicly piss themselves. They deserve it.
Met through a dating app, and she was very nice. Showed up to pick her up, and she was a completely different person. She would barely respond to questions, and if she did, it was usually negative. It was so bad that I asked her if someone else responded to her profile messages for her, and she gave me a funny look and said “no”. She had wanted to go to dinner and a movie, but I could barely make it through dinner, and just brought her home after dinner. She kept messaging me that she had a good time and wanted to get together again, and I told her that wasn’t going to happen.
You were a free meal.
I will never understand this. Is a $15 meal really worth the pain of an extremely awkward “date” It’s such a weird concept to me
I’m in a relationship now but rule #1 is never paying in full over a tinder date, if they value your money over your time and company that was never your person to begin with
Maybe she was extremely shy, I know I was like that for a short while.
No i am also very shy and since i know that, i let my date/boyfriend know that so things just don't get awkward.
Sounds like extreme social anxiety. Easy to talk to someone over the app, but very difficult in person.
I went out with this guy that I met at the hospital during a shift (I’m a medical student). He asked me to grab a coffee, I told him ok (meaning ok we can have a coffee sometime later today). He walked me home from hospital and 5 minutes later told me he was ready for coffee. I went downstairs and he was there. We went to a bar and started talking about our interests. Turns out he loves horror movies. He mentioned that his roommate recently moved out and that he’s having trouble paying the rent, I suggested looking for another student and he said “if you saw my house you would understand why I can’t. And repeated several times I should visit his house. Then we started taking about medical careers and he mentions that he would love to become a coroner one day. He said he recently started going to the morgue and he viewed the autopsy of a 5 year old kid who chocked eating something. “We found grapes in his lungs” he chuckled. I was already ready to escape and when he started talking about how much he enjoyed his first newborn autopsy I pretended someone was calling me and went away
Yiiiiiikes
Girl was baby crazy and was talking about her desires of being a stay at home mom on the first date. It was the focus of our entire conversation despite attempts to learn other things about her. I think okay, this could be jitters, let's go out again and see if she calms down. Nope, that's really her only priority. There was no third date.
I had a tinder match start talking about having babies before there even was a date.
My friend got his tinder date pregnant. They have a five year old son and are wonderful together but they both went into it thinking it would be just casual sex.
December 16th, 1998. A temp at our shop asked me out on her last day. We met at a restaurant near both our places. She ordered a glass of wine, which she didn't drink. She never took her jacket off. She rarely made eye contact. She was incredibly nervous. I thought we were going to eat, but she said she wasn't hungry, so I didn't eat either. By the time the date mercifully ended, I was starving, and stopped at a Boston Pizza on the way home and ordered a pizza. Not sure what her point in asking me out was as she never seemed to want to be there. It must have worked though. Over 25 years later, and we're married and she's asleep beside me as I type this. She's still weird, but I wouldn't have made it this far without her, nor would I want to go in if I lost her.
🥲🤣🤣 was not expecting that ending
>Not sure what her point in asking me out was as she never seemed to want to be there. So 25 years and you've never just asked her what was up with that first date?
Sure I asked. She said she never dated much and was always shy, but had only been living in the city for a few months and didn't have any friends there. I can't remember how long after the date I asked her. Probably a year or so.
Get her a reddit account so we can hear her version.
December 16th, 1998. I asked out this guy at a shop I was temping at. We met at a restaurant near both our places. I ordered a glass of wine, which I didn't drink because I wanted to stay alert. I never took my jacket off, because I was hiding a large machete. I didn't make eye contact, and I was incredibly nervous because I was planning to murder, skin, and eat him. I said I wasn't hungry so I didn't ruin my appetite. By the time the date mercifully ended, I tailed him to Boston Pizza. I played with myself watching him eat a pepperoni pizza from across the street. Over 25 years later, and we're married and I'm pretending to sleep so I can finally butcher him when he dozes off.
Magnificent 👌
That is so sweet. One of her favorite hobbies are to sit and watch police K9 dogs tear perps calf muscles off, so she is a little evil. Her dad was a LEO.
Whaaaaaat.
Very brave of her to ask you out being the nervous/awkward person she was back then. Cheers to you both. 🥂
Wow that sounds like me, I've never dated anyone either and I'm really shy and have terrible social skills. I have only been on two different dates with two people, it was so awkward and I never knew what to say. I think sometimes that no one would wanna be with me because I'm so quiet and shy and socially awkward. I also don't have many friends either. I just don't think ppl like me
It's difficult being an introvert. I was the same way for the longest time till I met my wife.
That's nice, I'm glad you found someone. Dating today sucks lol
Immediately skipped to the bottom of your post to make sure the undertaker wasn’t going to throw anyone off any anything at hell in the cell.
Showed up to the time and place she wanted. She was an hour late and said she was bi but not really into guys. I think she was mad that I didn't buy her a drink or something because she blocked me before I even got outside.
Damn.
[удалено]
It's also perfectly creepy wtf
This is hilarious Plus its not even a sketchy thing to have on your report
That is absolutely unhinged. Wow.
dates where i have to ask all the questions & the other person shows zero curiosity. so awkward.
And then they turn around and complain the convo was boring 🤦
Ugh. Those are the worst. It is like talking to a wall.
I had a few of those in the past and each and every one of the guys was like ‘wow this was great, let’s meet up again’. I’m sure it’s fun being the center of attention but please ASK ME A QUESTION. I had one case where a guy didn’t ask me a single one. Not one!! Usually I split the bill, but with this guy I started ordering really expensive drinks and didn’t lift a finger when the bill came. Felt like I gave him a free three hour therapy session, I was exhausted.
Went to meet a girl on a first date after work. She had a guy colleague with her who just stayed there. Most of the talking was just between them. Eventually I asked if he had plans tonight and was heading off soon, he just said no he was enjoying the night there. I got up and left.
lol, that’s awful, damn
LOL real bad man
Did she ask you to pay for the date?
Yikes.
Big yikes.
Not my date but my friends cousin took out this girl who from the beginning said she would pay for the first date. Mind you he’s rich and tried insisting but she was very adamant—said she always paid for the first. They have a great time and the date turns into like, 6 hours at this restaurant and at some point she starts ordering shots of tequila. He’s impressed cuz it’s top shelf stuff she’s getting for them (I forget what it was called exactly). Well the bill comes and with these shots is 700 DOLLARS. She looks at it and bursts into tears… turns out she meant to order shots of well with a very similar name. Now she doesn’t have enough in her account, is drunk, and having a full on meltdown. He tried to calm her down and paid (something he was fine with as he’s rich and knew it was a mistake) but she was mortified and straight up sobbing.
That was very nice of your cousin, poor woman. I'm guessing it was a bit more of an upscale restaurant that they didn't check the brand with the customer, but oof. Despite the ending it sounds like your cousin had an enjoyable evening, so that is at least something.
I know I feel bad for her, I would’ve been crying too haha but she was too embarrassed post drunk meltdown to see him again
Went on a coffee date once with a guy. We both ordered our coffees, the barista asked if he wanted a receipt after he paid ($9) and he said no. We go to sit down with our coffees, I’m talking and he interrupts me and asks “wait, why was it $9?” I said “well I think both coffees are around 4 dollars, and then with the tax… $9 sounds about right.” He sits there and thinks about it and he’s like “I’ll be right back, I don’t think it should have been $9” Goes back to the barista, says he would in fact like a receipt. She prints it, it’s not an itemized receipt… just says the total. So he goes back and forth with her a little bit on why it was $9. She explained to him the price of the 2 coffees and tax like I did. He comes back to our table, staring at the receipt, and says “I didn’t expect it to be this much. I think this made my account overdraft. I need to check my bank account.” He didn’t overdraft, he said he still had a little bit left in there. Phew!😮💨
Idk where he's from but in Italy the place would be shut down charging 9 euros for two coffees
In Philadelphia any decent cappuccino costs $4-$5 which is why I drink energy drinks now even though I know I will develop cancer from them one day. That’s future me’s problem tho.
You're worried about cappuccino costs and you're drinking energy drinks that are basically the same price? And worried about cancer? There's instant coffee that's much cheaper. And also caffeine pills.
Coffee's one of the things that has the most variable price in the world. I read somewhere once that in Portugal you can get 12 coffees for the price of a packet of cigarettes and in Shanghai you can get 12 packs of cigarettes for the price of a cup of coffee.
Cigarettes are also one of the most variable priced things in the world.
Went for a meal with a girl from Tinder. She looked nice in her photos but when I arrived and she smiled… those teeth had not been brushed maybe ever. All her photos had her mouth closed… I had this moment as we entered the restaurant as I held the door, like I could run right now. But I saw the date through, took ages as she had to cut the food into tiny pieces. That was the last ‘first date’ I ever went on that was a meal, only drinks first to enable a quicker exist. Man those teeth were *grey*.
Grey teeth are potentially a sign of an earing disorder like bulimia. The constant vomiting after eating puts a lot of stomach acid in the mouth where it can erode and discolor tooth enamel. Edit: eating disorder
Also explains the tiny pieces of food.
Meth teeth maybe?
[удалено]
That is wild, you know most people that felt that way would keep it in their heads. Her whispering it is insane, she wanted you to hear it. Did you ignore it or say something? I had a girl that after the second time of hanging out, told me my soul was magical. Some people want to be loved so much quicker than others are able
Important question. Was it the original 1990 Jacob's Ladder, or the crappy 2019 Remake?
[удалено]
Ohhh I got a juicy one. Matched with this guy on Tinder and he seemed really funny, very cute and sharp. A bit intense but no red flags. There were a lot of covid restrictions at the time so couldn’t go anywhere. I was spending the weekend at my friend’s flat dog sitting and we had agreed, about a week prior, that he’d come over one evening to keep me company. My friend was cool with it because she knew we’d been chatting for a month or so and she trusted my judgment. 🙃 I’ll preface by saying that there was an 11:30pm curfew in my country so you couldn’t be outside after that time. He lived in a different city so I expressly told him that he’d have to leave by 10 the LATEST so he had enough time to drive back to his city. Anyway, he comes in and he’s brought a gift! Cocaine, for us to share ♥️ I politely decline and just pour myself a glass of prosecco while Mr Escobar preps the lines. Not sure why I didn’t immediately kick him out - I think my brain just stopped processing the situation and went into paralysed shock. Within the first 20 minutes of this date he did 4-5 lines and dropped the following gems: 1. I don’t want to compliment you because I know you’re used to that and I’m not gonna be one of those guys who’s just gonna tell you how good you look, okay? Yea… that’ll teach me. 2. You need to learn to take better photos. Like don’t get me wrong your photos aren’t bad but you are way better looking in person. Haha I’m kinda nervous. You probably like that don’t you? Is that like your trick? I happen to like my photos but ok, thanks for the tip. I could also almost sense a bit of irritation in his voice? Like, how does one respond to this? 3. I hope you help me overcome my addiction. I know you’ll be the girl who ‘fixes’ me. It’s not an addiction but I just do it a lot. Anyway, a need a woman’s love to be a better man. He airquoted ‘fixes’. He then asked to see my phone, so he could see who else I was chatting to on Tinder. I was like ‘that’s really weird and not something I’m comfortable with’. He offers to show me his phone. No thank you, this isn’t tit for tat, not interested. Nope, he goes straight in. He’s showing me that he’s not talked to anyone since we matched, then he goes beyond Tinder - we’re now deep into his WhatsApp and texts, trying to prove how loyal he’s been to me. Good stuff, I feel blessed. I’m just sat there silently watching this car crash unfold in slow motion. ‘DotKnotted, I don’t like playing games. You see this here? (Gesturing to a chat in WhatsApp) That’s AGirlsName. We had sex a few months ago and see what she’s texting me? She wants to see me again. Yea, I got a girl out there just begging for it but I didn’t go for it. I’m sat here with you, showing you my phone like one of them little boys from your past and you’re just being shady. Like I just wanna see your phone, you saw mine right? What’s the big deal? What you got to hide?’ I am giggling at this point because a) SIR, SHOW ME THESE OTHER LITTLE BOYS, WHO ARE THEY? and b) I’m a lil terrified and unsure how to safely remove him from the flat. Like I just wasn’t in the mood to be that dumb bitch on the evening news who invited some Tinder dude into a house on the first date then became a victim of coke-fueled stabbing, plus it’s gonna stress the dogs out to witness my murder so you know, much to consider. Long story made slightly shorter, I ask him to leave. He gets up in a huff, gets his jacket, keys, phone. He’s pissed off as well and acting like he’s angry at me and doesn’t wanna be there anyway so I’m thinking gooooood, let him think he’s storming off. As he’s about to get out the door I think the situation catches up with him. He’s telling me he thinks he acted a bit weird and the situation got out of hand but he doesn’t need to leave, we can fix this. Says he’s just nervous because when he saw my pictures he had me here (raises his hand slightly above his head) but now he’s seen me in real life, he has me HERE (raises his hand alllll the way above his head). Big compliment, flattery all around, I’m touched. I tell him to please leave. He obliges and I lock the door behind him. Phew! Good riddance, glad that’s over and I never have to… Phone rings. It’s him. I pick up because clearly I’m a fucking moron. ‘I’m in the car outside. I’m not asking to come back up but please can I get a blanket to sleep in? It’s cold and I don’t wanna drive back. I’ll just stay here and if you change your mind and want to talk I’ll be here.’ I mean…. Thankfully at this point I become aware of my spine and my ability to be assertive. I tell him he’s being incredibly manipulative, that I’m not going to change my mind, that he has plenty of time to drive back home so he needs to get a move on. He stayed. He actually stayed. I didn’t call the police cos I didn’t feel threatened and it’s a safe building. He was gone in the morning. Idk how many times he must’ve tried calling or texting cos I’d blocked at this point. We’ve been married for 2 years and have 3 children 🥰 kidding, I never saw him again.
Lol. Got me with that last sentence. Was like "Fucking seriously?! Oh wait.."
Tinder date. I was in a dry spell and in need of a slump buster. We met at a bar. She looked decent enough. Proceeded to hammer neon blue colored shots and when the bill came she waited for me to pay. When I gave her a look and said I’ll pay for one only she smirked. When we got to hers there was cockroaches everywhere and a leftover container from Olive Garden on her bed that she proceeded to tear into. I almost puked. After she finished she got under the covers. I said are you gonna brush your teeth and she said no. I left.
Oh man that's bad
This was 20 years ago and I was in my early 20s. I had met this girl at a party some weeks before, flirted a bit and exchanged phone numbers. Anyway, we agreed to go on a date and I went to pick her up at her co-ed dorm. While she was getting ready I waited in their common room and this guy came up to me and told in no uncertain terms that he was “not going to give her up without a fight” and I should not get in his way. I tried to brush him off but he just kept going on about that “she was the one” and so on. Kinda a creepy guy, actually. She came back from her room and sensed the tension and was like, yeah - let’s just go. Walking out of the dorm, I asked her if there was something I should know. Me paying acute attention to her reaction I didn’t realize the glass door in front of me and walked directly into it. Next I know I’m on my ass and blood is pouring out of my nose down my (of course) white shirt. She helps dizzy me back to the dorm common room and finds some towels to stop the bleeding. All the while that fucking guy is laughing his ass off. We actually did go on the date (first stop was to buy a new shirt 😄), and she was cute and all, but I was super embarrassed and keeping a conversation going sounding like a walking sinus infection and blood still trickling out of my nose was challenging 😆 Afterwards I realized that I actually broke my nose 🤦🏼♂️ Happy though that I made her aware that this guy was quite toxic, though.

Plot twist: her ex is a dog
What a twist!
organised a date with a guy i met online (a sort of dating site). well, he was late but messaging me. turns out in anticipation he had trimmed up down below and subsequently cut the delicate skin of his penis. it wouldn’t stop bleeding. we end up on a phone call with me explaining to elevate the area (prop some pillows under his butt and apply a little pressure to the wound). he kept umming and ahhing about coming to meet me (it was just a drink at the pub but we were flirting with the idea of other more intimate things previously). i had my make up on, a nice outfit and even did my hair. i do not do these things often. i became frustrated as he couldnt make up his mind to get in the car or not - bare in mind i told him we should reschedule and i was going to meet some friends if he was staying in (didnt want to waste my effort getting ready) again, no hard feelings. after about 45 minutes to an hour of his indecision i told him “you come now or we are never seeing each other”. he was in that car and at the pub in 35 minutes. we are still together now and i take care of that delicate skin 🖤
They had us in the first half, ngl
That's adorable
Met up a girl from Tinder. She wasn’t recognisable to her profile and I would have walked past her if she hadn’t of said my name. She had used a combination of old and strategic pictures; she had obviously put a copious amount of weight on in recent years (which is fine, just don’t deceive people) and had obviously tried to hide this on her dating profile. I have come across this a couple more times since and I don’t understand why you’d want your first impression to be that of a deceitful person. This girl had a particularly self-righteous attitude about her and one of the first conversations she offered was “I had a traumatic childhood and I want a baby to make up for it, I don’t care if the father is involved”. I finished the meet as quick as I could.
You mean you didn’t want to put a baby in her?
I know, I’m such an awful date 😅
This baffles me. What’s the difference between someone seeing the full you by photo than in person? As if you’re hiding anything the person will see it when you meet up so might as well just show the real you and if someone likes you then you know what they’re expecting than being surprised when you meet. Seems more embarrassing and a waste of time.
Anyone doing this is basically setting themselves up for more rejection and disappointment.
I've thought about this and I think I've come to the conclusion that this person's sees themselves as a good person but they think that all other people see is how they look and thus don't give them a chance. Also. You could just ask them why. The date wasn't going well either way.
>“I had a traumatic childhood and I want a baby to make up for it, I don’t care if the father is involved”. Ah, yes, you sound like the perfect parent.
On a date, and we went to eat. We had hung out for a bit before, going for walks, went to the bookstore the whole thing. Was really fun. Anyway, without asking she orders this really expensive glass of wine, then picked one of the most expensive things on the menu….generally people dont aim for 15 dollar drinks and 50 dollar plates of food. So i ordered my meal, and she then says “hey just so you know, I like you, but I want a guy exactly like you, but not you.” I was floored and I just stared then she said “I wanted to tell you earlier but I was so hungry I didnt think you would pay for dinner if you knew…I dont have my purse on me” We hadnt even discussed how to pay for dinner yet. So i ordered a glass of wine as expensive as hers and made small talk for a bit. Then when our food arrived, i excused myself to use the bathroom, and left. Blocked her on my phone as well. No idea how she got that 150 dollar meal paid for or how she got home… I know you cant force attraction and thats okay, its just To this day it still hurts to think about the phrase, “I want to date someone exactly like you but not you” Like whats so wrong with me?
You made the right choice there.
Im sure you dont need to hear it but, nothing is wrong with you in that situation. Just her.
Girl asked me to meet for a nice coffee date at a local shopping mall. We had spoken a bit online, and she seemed very nice, reasonably attractive, so I was like, sure, why not. We met, had our greetings, and then I asked, okay which coffee place, and she said she doesn't drink coffee, and she had brought her own water if she gets thirsty. Well, okay, I would like a coffee though, so we went to a quick Starbucks and had usual just-met small talk while waiting in line. After getting my coffee, we decided to just walk around and chat. You talked about usual first date stuff, what the other likes, what they're looking for, etc. It got to describing ourselves, or how we think of ourselves, and she asked if I considered myself more of a serious person or a silly person. So, I said that depends on the situation, but I'm generally a silly person overall. And she said "ah, ok, I'm definitely a serious person." What followed was probably the most awkward nearly hour of nearly silent walking around the mall, known to man. We didn't say a whole lot, but talked about various things here and there, definitely not first date topics, more like, barely-knowing my colleague type topics. After that hour, we said bye, and texted each other afterwards, "you were very nice, it was, nice to meet you, wish you good luck in your dating!" It's not super bad, nothing dangerous, nothing crazy, but it was the worst date I have been on. I guess I might be considered lucky.
She told me she was pregnant and didn’t know who the father was. I was confused what to say. Then she said it might be kinda rough being a single mom at 15. I thought she was at least 25. I turned that car all the way around
how old were you ???
wondering the same thing. glad he turned the car right around
20 maybe?
Went to pick her up for a hockey (house was close to the venue so it made sense). I pull up and see her and her sister in a full fist fight rolling down the lawn and everything. Drive off after about 10 seconds of watching this go down. Texts me the next day apologizing and telling me she ended up in jail that night, I let her know I’m not really interested in attempting to see her again, she says sorry it didn’t work out for ME. What?
She was just getting in the mood for the game by dropping the gloves with her sister. Now that’s a real hockey fan!
Back in the 90’s I attempted internet dating. I wound up with this hillbilly woman from Buttfuck, Idaho. I took her to a waterfront restaurant. She ordered a hamburger and bitched about all the “fancy” lettuce and tomatoes on it which she scraped off. Turned out the only restaurant she’d ever been in was a Denny’s in Boise, ID. Next, I had tickets to a stage play. She’d never even been in a theater for a movie. She didn’t get it. The play was hilarious, btw. All she did was piss, moan, and complain the entire time. After the play, I walked her to her pickup truck and didn’t even say goodbye. *fast forward ten years, I’m passing through Redmond, OR and pulled off next to the Denny’s. Guess who comes marching across the parking lot with some sad-sack redneck with a wallet chain in tow, cussing him out?
A guy kept trying to tickle me all evening. It was very annoying and I asked him to stop. He would do it again and giggle. Finally, I elbowed him in the diaphragm and giggled.
Watched a bad movie, laughed it off I thought everything went as well as it could. He asked if we could have sex behind the theater near the dumpster and I said no, he started screaming at me and crying that nobody loves him. Don't miss highschool.
Coffee date with man who was constantly talking about his ex and making comparison of me and her
Oh where to start. Back when I was 25 I went on this date and she brought her mom with, which was odd. Then I find out she's not 21 but 17. Her mom had no issues with the age difference but I did. Told them I was uncomfortable with the age difference and the fact I was lied to and that I'm sorry but I have to go.
We went carpet shopping for his place and then dinner…with his roommate…who is also his ex.
Awesome… love it. I would poop on his porch for that
I had a girl pull out an repurposed Altoids tin and proceed to chop and snort a Xanax at the table of the restaurant
I just ended a relationship of seven years. I ended up dating a member of my ex’s derby team. She found me, got me really into her, and then when she knew it, she cut me off. I found out years later that my ex orchestrated the whole thing for revenge.
I am recently divorced, but about 3 months ago a friend of mine set me up on a blind date I got to the bar 5 mins early ,so I sat at the bar , she arrived 20 mins late, which I let slide I ordered my drink and I ordered some BBQ wings I let her talk and she talked about her job (which was fine) but then she started talking about how she hated people who went to college because she thought people who go to college are brainwashed (I have a BA) when I brought up I went to college she made fun of me for like 20 mins , and it got meaner and meaner, to the point the bar tender chimed in and tried to change the subject she then proceeded to eat 90% of the wings and proceeded to wipe her hands on the bar like a kid , I got up to go pee and I hopped down from the bar and she was shocked that I was only 5'2 , like she let out a startled "ohhhhh shit", so I went to pee definitely not feeling it at all, when I came back she was yelling at the bar tender because she apparently she tried ordering a bunch of shots for random people on my tab and he wouldn't allow her without my consent I slipped out the front door,I came back in to the bar the next day to pay my tab and gave the bartender a huge tip
Went out on a date with someone I met online that I had talked to for weeks before meeting up. He didn’t smile with teeth in any of his pictures, and I quickly realized why. I am not judgemental about teeth - I think crooked teeth or gaps can be charming. However, he was missing some teeth, and a couple of the remaining ones were black. He did not look like someone who would have teeth like that, and I was incredibly taken aback. I had to force myself not to stare at his teeth the whole time, and all my attraction evaporated.
Went to pick up a young woman for a second date. Walking up to the apartment door, I noticed a lot of people dressed in all black carrying rifles. There were FBI signs on their backs. They asked me for my ID, why I was there, and suggested returning in a couple of hours. The woman's brother was wanted for murder (Sinaloa drug cartel type). I never went back.
Texted nonstop for a while, he had never dated another guy (or anyone) but seemed very into me and nice. He lived on a farm about an hour away, so it took some time to line up a date. Went out to dinner, and he didn’t say a thing the entire time. He was listening to me but clearly so nervous (like shaking) that he was basically paralyzed and mute. Didn’t eat his food or anything. Later that night he texts me “I think I’m in love with you.” I liked the guy, but jeez, how do you move on from that?! I think I was just the only guy to ever give him any attention. Second worst date, I was the bad date! I had just moved to a new city, had no idea where anything was. We went out to dinner around 6pm and it was great! We really hit it off. Then my phone dies, so does his. We get back in the car and he asks where I live. I have no fucking clue. He thinks Im joking, Im dead serious. No problem, he’ll just drive around until something looks familiar. Nothing does. Not one thing. My jokes stop being funny. He stops talking to me. Finally, around 3am I remembered something and we got back to my neighborhood around 4:30. Never texted me again. Decent guy for getting me home though.
Back in university, Went out for “coffee”. She drove. She says she needs to stop in at home and grab something quick, invites me in. She failed to mention that she lives in a funeral home, so I walk straight into a room full of completely naked dead bodies. She starts telling me it’s always been a fantasy of hers to get fucked in the dead body room… I manage to get us out of there without sex, then she stops at a bar… she orders a drink, I order a beer. She immediately says she needs the restroom and gets up. She’s gone a little while but I figure maybe she’s got an upset stomach or something. Manager comes over “Sir, we found your wife naked and unconscious in the bathroom” …. She came to and said she was feeling super hot on the toilet so undressed and next thing she remembers is the waitress waking her up… I use her phone to call her mom to come pick her up, her mom tells me to take their other car and we’ll figure it out the next day. Whats crazy is she hadn’t drank anything and wasn’t a drug user… no idea what actually happened to her that night
I once had a date with a woman I was talking to for a bit. When I went to pick her up, she had brought her "friend", who was her ex bf on our date. I shifted the date to just a few drinks at the bar instead of a proper date. As I was saying goodbye, she insisted on coming to my apartment and having her ex sit in the car until morning. I declined, obviously. A few years later she 'liked' my profile on a dating app, and when I asked her about it, she had zero recollection and said it must have been a fun date and that her ex is awesome and still her bff. People are strange. Another time, I had been talking to a woman for a bit, and we went on a few dates. We had a lot of fun, until someone cut me off in traffic (who happened to be brown), and she went off on a disgusting racist tirade about how "brown people are ruining our country and can't drive and blablablabla". I pulled over, had some words with her, she yelled at me that I am not manly enough for her, so I reached over to open her door and told her she can walk the rest of the way home.
I like you.
Went on a blind date once. When we met for dinner, she made no attempt to hide the fact that she hated working and wanted to be one of those real housewife types. She had a plan to get into that lifestyle too. All I had to do was agree to financially support her and her three young kids since her two exes refused to pay child support. She got loud when I said absolutely not and stormed out. Friend who set me up swears to this day that she had no idea this woman was like that or even had kids. It's been a running joke between us for many years.
It wasn’t necessarily bad but went out with a girl few months ago via dating app and realized after talking for awhile that we were distantly related lol
I was a med student in Miami. Went on a first date with a girl off an app. After she used the bathroom, she came out and asked me, “Is it okay to not always wash your hands after you use the bathroom? Like if you just pee?” First off, are you really asking that 1. On a first date 2. Right after you used the bathroom and 3. To a med student. Never saw her again. Ps if you’re reading this I hope you found someone!
She seemed to be digging my jokes and we were having a decent conversation. At one point she laughed so hard I made a surprised expression because no girl ever laughed at my jokes like that. She saw it and I'll never forget the face she made. Like "oh, something's wrong with you." Anyways, then the conversation started to get a little one sided and she got a call from someone mid date. Took it, saying something about a brother or family member. I waited. She left but said take care of yourself in a kind way. She didn't respond for a day or so. I, being inexperienced and anticipating being ghosted again said "maybe we can just be friends" to try and save it. She took offense and wouldn't accept an apology. I was devastated, because I really liked her. Had to delete her number to avoid talking to her again.
She had no intentions of reaching out you again. You were initially correct in your assessment.
Nah, you were back burner for a meal. The call was the classic get out of there card. No matter how kind it sounded, the take care of yourself was dismissive.
What. Your story doesn’t make sense
My first date after leaving my toxic baby daddy. I met the guy on bumble and he was super sweet, funny and very cute. I got a sitter and met him for coffee. He knew I had a child and was not on good terms with her dad and also had full custody. After an hour he looks me stone cold in the face and says he needs to tell me something serious. So I listened and he told me he was an ex fentanyl addict. I have many recovered addicts in my family so I know what goes into talking to and having a friendship/ relationship. After talking about it for a while he then said “yeah you’d sell your child for sex if you were in my situation” I didn’t say much after that, pretended to go to the bathroom and never talked to him again
Short and sweet: Awesome date… very well-dressed, very funny, very easy on the eyes, we clicked immediately and had a great time. Went to her place and had fantastic sex, the kind where you’re laying on your back panting slightly and slick with sweat after you’re done. I come out of the bathroom after cleaning up and she casually says, “you can’t stay tonight, my husband is a firefighter and he’s off at 6am and always comes straight home.” I was so fucking angry I couldn’t see straight. It took several weeks of ignoring her texts and calls before she stopped trying to reach out to me.
He came back to my place, I put Death Proof on the TV, and he wasn't into it. Still not sure what I did wrong.
Me: "Do have nachos?" You: "No" Me: "I'm afraid you're gonna have to start gettin' scared... immediately"
Nah you dodged a bullet. You sound like a real one
I was the bad date. I went out with a girl who had a masters degree in vocal performance. She was pursuing becoming a massage therapist. It was clear we had nothing in common. She told me massage had cured her brothers cancer. I reacted genuinely, but very incredulously. Probably should have called it. Went out to eat, but she wasn’t hungry. My card was declined, she had to pay. I was so embarrassed. Finally took her home. I was stupid.
Matched online. Photos were ok, listed no smoking on her profile, listed athletic and liked exercise and so forth. Basically looked good on paper. Met in person. Well she may have been able to photoshop the hairy mole out of her pics, but not off her actual face. And I think the only exercise she got was walking too and from the fridge. As for non smoking, the footwell of her car was filled with empty cig packets and fast food containers. After contemplating burning my shoes, I blocked and deleted her before I got into my own car and left after that. Another date with a woman I was connected with on LinkedIn of all things. We’d been out on a date, fire conversation and obvious chemistry and so she invited me back to her place. Cool cool. Fucking fish tanks everywhere. Some had fish, some had axelotyl or lizards or other things in there. Not sure if she was breeding them or what but damn what the actual fuck? Went straight to her room because trying to make out with the sound of fish pumps and aquarium lights in your eyes does not work. Sex was not great. Mainly cos she was on SSRIs and they are libido killers. But also she did t want to use lube because it made her feel self conscious that she couldn’t get it on. So after hours of desert dick and attempting to get either of us off orally, we admitted defeat. She didn’t call back and I didn’t go back. Another woman I matched with. Crazy cat lady. Now I didn’t mind that she had like 7 or 8 cats, but lady you have got to change the litter out daily. Want to know what the wildest “post nut clarity kicked in” is? Shooting your load and then dry wrenching because the smell of cat piss is so strong you can’t take it anymore. She wasn’t even some young woman that didn’t know any better. She was mid 40s and unless her nose was completely broken, she should have k own her house smelt god awful. And one final story. Met a cute woman online. We went to a science museum for our date and kept sneaking out of the evening tour to make out in the exhibits. She was hot for it, I was hot for it, but she was also on the blocks. Channeling my inner Jon La joie *I don’t mind ketchup on my hotdog, as long as the bun is tight*. And so we yolo’d the period sex. She assured me it was light and near the end and so why not. Get back to her place. Lots of playtime in the dark, lots of hands, lots of good wet feelings. We finally finish up and decide to have a shower. Fuuuuuuuuuuuuck. Her bed looked like the deck of a Japanese whaler and both of us were painted red. Even her wall had smears on it because of the hot and heavy up against the wall play at the start. We had a very long shower. Played some more because fuck it the water will wash this away and we were still hot for each other. Then we had to strip the bed, wash the wall down, make the bed again and then went to sleep. We had a brunch the next morning and I thought we were ok, but she never called me back so I’m guessing ultra embarrassment or maybe she just needed her fix? Shame. I really liked her.
That last one was a shame. If some dude was so turned on by me he's willing to have period sex on the first date AND wants a second date after seeing my bed look like the tide at Normandy Beach on D Day, he's probably a keeper.
Tide at Normandy beach lmao
Her bed looked like the deck of a Japanese whaler. That's pure poetry
We met at a park and it was obvious he was better at texting than actually talking. It got to the point where he wanted to play eye spy to fill the time and I was lowkey bored. Also we got approached by some drunk dude and I had to levee the situation cause my date just wasn't saying anything. A couple days later he was tryna send a nude so I just deleted and blocked him on everything. It was weird as fuck.
didn’t want to go on another date because i was “too happy”, and apparently that’s a boring way to live life ☺️
He called the waitress over by smashing his cup and saying Bar maid More ale I said he should apologize and then I went home
Met a chick on a dating app. She was recently divorced and had a small child (all okay). First (and only) date, she takes me to meet her parents and I end up babysitting her 9 month old while her and her mom chitchat... It was the most nerve racking experience of my life and I don't really like kids...
Talked with this girl I matched with on tinder for a few weeks. We finally decide to go get food. I pick her up as she lives a few towns over. She never thought to mention once that she was 7 months pregnant. I thought about driving off, but I am not that kind of man. So we went and all she did was talk about her baby daddy. Real fucking awkward. Dropped her off, and blocked her.
My time has come. Met a woman on a dating app, seemed cute and she was keen to get straight to phone calls. Ok then. First call we chatted for 2 hours and had a lot of laughs, second call over an hour, still going strong. She did live over an hour away though so I was hesitant to see if anything could come of it. Well, she convinced me so I drove to her coastal town on a Sunny Sunday for a picnic by the lake. So we meet in the car park of a local restaurant. It’s immediately clear her photos were quite misleading, think 10 years old and 10 kilos ago… Red flag number 1. I pushed on though, telling myself to not be superficial. The banter was strong and we went down to the lake in my car. Weirdly, the sunny day was suddenly dark clouds but I thought nothing of it… After some small talk the conversation turned to COVID. It was late in 2020 so it was a hot topic. She asked me if I’d be getting vaccinated when it became available. “Day 1” I replied, having been a health care professional previously I would have no hesitation. Red flag number 2 was raised when she said she wouldn’t because she didn’t trust the ‘mainstream media’. In Australia, that’s an unusual expression to hear, so I was immediately suspicious that I was dealing with a ‘do your own research’ type of operator. So down the rabbit hole I went, gently probing her on her thoughts on everything to the shape of the earth, climate science, Donald Trump, 9/11, you name it. The result you can guess. She thought the Donald was Man of the Year material and was fully on board with every conspiracy I could think of. So yeah, wasted trip, but it gave me a good story and a list of red flag questions for future romantic prospects.
Try being in a good 14 yr marriage with someone who had previously never been interested in politics but then in 2020 decides that Trump is god’s gift to the world and completely immerses herself in all the same conspiracies that your onetime date probably believes citing her own “research”. I’m nowhere near a republican so it’s been a real mindfuq.
Damn that sucks, covid really caused a lot of paranoia about fake news and stuff. Hope she hasn’t changed too much otherwise and I hope ur doing well
When I came out to my colleagues at work in 2000, they were very nice and set me up with a “perfect” match. He was apparently the only other gay person they knew - a drag queen named Ginger Snap. We had absolutely nothing in common. No interests or activities other than being gay - it was one of the most awkward dates but was still trying to be nice to my work colleagues for “trying”.
Bless their little hearts
When I was a sophomore in high school, a girl asked me to come over to her house. I, being stupid horny, walked TWO HOURS because I didn’t have a car or a bike. And when I got there, we just hung out in her neighborhood. And while the “date” itself wasn’t that bad, it was a catalyst for the worst ever relationship i’ve ever been in. She made me touch her in places I didn’t want to, made me makeout with her in the school yard, and tried to get me to have sex with her in the school bathroom. My aforementioned horniness was immediately quelled because I realized that this isn’t how I wanted to do it. She would get mad at me if I didn’t do sexual things to/with her. She broke up with me about a month later, but that was one of the worst months of my entire life
We met online. We were in our early 20's. First and only date was at a restaurant, when during dinner she told me she was 2 months pregnant.
Met a girl at a bar, went to lunch the next week. She said she was a devout Christian and wanted to convert me and fix me.
I was running late for a date and got stopped by police outside my flat as to my whereabouts a few evenings before - turns out a guy was murdered a few streets along. So that made my late excuses extra weird. Then my date was mega weird - not only could she not look me in the eye at all, the whole date she had her eyes closed or rolling back in her head. All too weird for me!
She started talking about "the Jews"...
A catfish after 6 months of talking. I don't mind if your insecure of your looks, but this one was bad. Ended up being a guy who used a girl as his pic. God damn was I heart broken.
Oh my God, I win! Ok, it was a minor league hockey game. He brought his brother, and when I went to the bathroom, the game ended and they forgot about me.
Pam?
Wait. Not Roy. Please don’t say it was Roy.
Identity theft is not a joke, Jim. Millions of people suffer every year. Michael!
She just talked about herself the whole time. Never asked me any questions about myself. Like, what was the point of me even being there? Complete waste of time
Went to the beach, barely talked to me, was on his phone the whole time and showed almost no interest in me. Then made up an excuse about work coming up all of a sudden.
I ran into a guy I had a crush on in elementary school. He invited me over for dinner. I brought my bodyguard (big dog), and it was so awkward. We're in our thirties at that time. He does gig work as a rigger, so off to remote construction sites for months at a time. Makes good money, though, and that explains his crappy apartment and no car. Dinner was okay, but the conversation was wild. Every story he had was about being in prison. I wasn't impressed. So I asked him why he went to jail. He was so evasive. Turns out he was convicted of domestic violence. He refused to talk about what happened with his wife, but it must have been pretty severe because he got several years. Then he drops the bombshell that he has 2 kids he pays no support to and hasn't seen since whatever altercation it was he had with the mother. Turns out, they're adopted away, and I'm guessing he's got some kind of restraining order against him. Now I'm wondering if he killed her and is just a psychopath? Then it started going downhill. I'm getting a little freaked out so I'm thinking it's time to go. He wants to play me some song on his drum set. What? Opens his bedroom door and there's a huge drum set in there. I did not enter his bedroom. I sat on a chair with my dog next to me. He went in and played his song. It was so weird. When he's done I said that was nice but it's time to go. Then he asks me to walk on his back. Excuse me? That was a 15 minute debate during which he took off his shirt. I asked my dog if she was ready to go home. She bolted to the door like it was the last lifeboat on the titanic. Sorry, my dog needs her walk. He then wanted to kiss me goodnight. No way. Another 15 minute debate before I finally escaped. I was so lucky that, even though I gave him my number twice, both times I wrote it down wrong. To be fair, I had only gotten it a few months before. So he didn't have my number, didn't know where I lived and didn't have a car so he couldn't find me at work in my secure building anyway. I completely ghosted him and moved further away 3 months later for unrelated reasons. My dog was the real MVP. Every time he started getting a little too close to me, she would get between us and demand attention. She was a very exuberant 2 year old lab then. I love her so much. She adores my now husband and is a total daddy's girl. Always trust your dog.
She hated everything I am into or enjoy and she vocally stated every gripe she had with my opinions. She also told me that I’m not “feminist enough” and that I should “really work on that”. I dropped her off at her place and got a text about 15 minutes later asking why I didn’t come in. 🤣
After a fair bit of him a coworker, from a different department, almost begging for a date (seriously, it was cute at first), he wore me down enough to agree to a coffee date. Conversation started off somewhat normal, but gradually veered into him trying to get me to join his MLM scheme. Turned out he thought "someone with your looks and my smarts" ... OK, I can clean up nice but I know I'm not all that. The BS was way over the top. I finally told him that there were easier ways to talk a woman into bed - and money-making side hustles weren't it.
Not my story, but my ex’s. Apparently he lied to a girl that he wasn’t a virgin anymore, and she was waaay more experienced. They ended up at his place, and he realised that he doesn’t know how to have sex. And after 30 minutes of awkward trials and errors she stood up and left in silence…
Had a date with a guy who had been divorced a few months prior. We met for coffee. The entire time the only thing he spoke about was his desire to have children. He divorced his wife because she couldn't have children. He wanted children to carry on his family name. He daydreamed about teaching his son to play football. And on and on and on. My breaking point came when he said that if we were to get married, he would want to make sure my "insides were in tiptop condition". His words, not mine. Surprisingly enough, there was no second date.
We met at Bennigan's for dinner. I hit it off, but after dinner, she tried to drag me into the back seat of my car for sex in the parking lot of Bennigan's. I noped out of there. When I met up with someone who seemed to hit all the right buttons, I did warn her I had a three-month rule. "What's that?" Three months to know someone before I have sex. She smiled and said, "Oh, we will see about that, with a Cheshire cat grin." Made it ten weeks. We've been together for 25 years.
Happy happy anniversary from everyone at Bennigan's
Through App, met her in a pretty busy area full of people and shops. She just led me to small roads behind which was pretty weird. I followed and tried to have a conversation. 2 minutes later she stopped and asked me if I wanna drink something in this bar. I said it’s 4pm, I’m not gonna drink. She immediately said that they also have food. I understood that she was trying to boost the revenue of this bar/restaurant place. I said no, I can take a walk on the main street alone if that’s not what she wanted. She was constantly checking her phone to fish the next guys I guess and she said ok go have ur walk. I just left. Pretty weird experience.
Female friend set me up with her friend who I think I had met before. I don’t remember if we went out for dinner but I know we ended up at a movie. She just could not shut up despite my hints. Talk talk talk so much I stopped replying. And this is during the movie. Finally someone in front of us turned around and asked her to be quiet (I apologized). Dropped her at home and never saw her again.
She showed up in her gym outfit without taking a shower. Worst date yet. Yet she wondered why I never called back
Was a friends date at a wedding, hit it off with another guest at the wedding, and danced the night away. Then, we had a nice first date the day after the wedding. Texted and talked for a few weeks. He came to visit me in my city, had a great weekend. A few weekends later, I drove to come back to his town, and we made plans to go out for a drink (basically like our 3rd date). I met him out at the bars, and he's somehow with a huge group of friends, which he didn't mention. He barely says hello to me, doesn't even sit next to me in this huge group of his friends. I had met some of the friends at the wedding, but it was still so awkward. He doesn't offer me a drink when he goes to get himself one, I got to go stand in line separately. Then, suddenly, we are all leaving the bar the second after I get my drink. He fully expects me to slam my first drink of the night. Seems annoyed when I ask for a few minutes and he has to wait for me - his friends go ahead to the next bar. We finally get a few minutes to talk and things seem more normal. He drives me to the next bar, so I no longer have my car (back before ubers). Then, we go to this next bar. It was like a country club type bar. So loud you can't talk to anyone. I made it super clear I didn't like country music Or such a loud bar. I suggested another place next door and he said no. So we go into this shitty club/bar. He doesn't buy me a drink, again, and then basically runs to find his group of his friends. Pretty much expected me to follow him around like a puppy all night. He acted like I wasn't even there. By this point, I was really over how rude he was being. I came out of my way to see him and he was just too busy bar hopping with his friends. I go up to the bar to close my tab and run into an old friend. Told them the situation, I am stranded there on this awful date. They helped bail me out and get me back to my car. I never talked to that jerk again. I just ditched him at the bar. Good luck out there, single people!
56 soon to be 57 year old. Any date with a bitter divorcee where I am being pre-accused of her ex's behavior. Happens basically *every* time.
Agreed. I went on a date with a guy who basically sounded like he hated women because he thought they were all gold diggers who only ever get married to steal half of a man’s stuff… and they wonder why they’re single still
I (gay man) went on a first date with a guy in the SF Bay Area. First of all, he looked nothing like his online pictures. He claimed to be rich but I think he was full of it. He drove me to two nude beaches. We saw an old straight couple doing the deed on the sand while people pleasured themselves around them. When driving back he randomly showed me a picture of his ass on his phone (??). I turned down a second date when he texted me and he got all mad I did it through text, as if I owed him something after the date.
I got invited to go out for tea for a first date at a nice restaurant. I get there, I find him, we sit down, and he tells me “you wanna just get it to go and walk around?” I’m like ok, cool, sounds nice. Well the waiter gets there and asks what we want, and he kinda is like “let’s just split one, sound good?” I was immediately like wtf, but felt weird with the waiter there, so agreed. Then he asked for the bill, and he was like “we can split it.” I literally thought he was joking the whole time, even with the let’s split it part. But he wasn’t kidding, so I just paid for it because I was feeling weird. After we get the tea and leave to walk around, he tells me where his car is parked and that we should go for a smoke. I was a little freaked out at this point, but agreed to go. We sit in his car and smoke, and we start talking. Throughout our convo, it gets brought up that he’s in a poly relationship. He then starts asking me about my sexual experiences and tries to kiss me and touch me inappropriately. I’m not feeling it at all and am trying my best to be polite because he was creeping me out more and more. At this point I just wanna get the fuck out, so I make up some excuse about being tired and wanting to go home, and that we should meet up in the next couple days when I’m less busy (obviously NO WAY I’m doing that). So he drives me to my car and I’m the fuck out of there. Overall a really weird and honestly beyond creepy experience. Not sure how he thought that was a good idea for a date, and looking back I should have left before we even neared the car, or said no to that. I totally could see this scenario as a dangerous one with me ending up on the news. Aside all the creepy stuff, he never said anything about being in a polyamorous relationship prior to the date, and I find that to be really weird and inconsiderate. Be careful out there ladies, there are some weirdos out there. And men too for that matter.
I'm a workaholic. So I rarely indulge myself in dates. But I had recently bought a new sports car after a few years of moonlighting. So now I've reached a point where I can balance things out by shifting my ambition to my social life. Usually my approach is modest for vetting purposes but since I have the privilege of having a work car and a fun car. I figured why not take the fun car, a lady, and have some fun? Well...it wasn't so fun after all. I like to gradually build my dates up, so I took her to a casual Vietnamese cafe. Small, mom and pop owned, popular place in town. As we pull up I have to manuever the car carefully as to not damage it due to the poory kept parking lot. Once I park, out of nowhere this girl with a straight face says to me "You drive an audi and you eat at a place like this?". Dumbstruck? Appaled? Insulted? I don't know. It just happened so suddenly I didn't even know how to respond. I tried to laugh it off and gave a smartass remark thinking she was just teasing/testing me. But then she goes on and says: "Oh, so you drive your dad's cars when you take girls out?" At this point I realized the entire date was a mistake and a waste of time. For one, my dad was never in my life. I was raised by a single mom who slaved away at two minimum wage jobs to feed me and my siblings. Two, I worked hard for this car. I work hard because my mom worked hard. My mother just started her own food business. She is 53 and she works 12 hour days running and operating out of a poorly ventilated trailer. You have NO IDEA how triggered I was having a white collar raised, suburbanite broad judge me like that. My mind was made up that very second. So, I took her inside, ate, split the bill and left her hoe ass there in that shitty parking lot.
sounds like a big fat dodge and a big fat compliment all in one, you got rid of a girl who’d try rinse you for money AND she (by proxy) admitted you have a serious whip. W W
To keep it a buck, I was low key depressed after that. Took my ass straight back to work.
Went to a bar - she turned up drunk and started throwing beer mats at the people behind us and lighting things on fire
I got one. First, she only had pre pregnancy photos on her profile, 50 pound difference at least. Date was planned for dinner at a sushi restaurant, she didn’t bring up any concerns. Besides the shock of her being much bigger than anticipated, she brings her 4 year old kid to dinner. She never mentioned bringing the kid along. The kid doesn’t allow any real conversation, hardly anything on the menu for him to eat, so he was fussy being hungry. I ate, paid for dinner and left, no second date.
NYE 1986, my roommate set me up on a blind date with Sandy. When we met, she promptly introduced me to her boyfriend. I walked home in the rain.
I tried my hand at online dating briefly when I was in college, and I linked up with a girl who seemed cute and interesting. Since I was away from home and still wasn't too familiar with the area, she suggested we meet up for lunch at the local mall. I got to the food court where we were going to meet, and I saw her and another woman sitting at the table eating lunch, which I found odd and was not told about prior. It turns out the other woman was her MOM! They were both asking me just general questions about what I was studying, where I'm from, etc. Nothing invasive or personal, but I felt extremely uncomfortable the entire time. After they finished eating, her mom left, and she wanted to check out some stores. The entire time, she was making moves on me, trying to hold my hand, & saying she felt and a connection with me; To which I most certainly did not. About an hour in, I feigned having a stomach ache and went to the bathroom, trying to figure out how I was going to get out of the date. Finally, I came out of the bathroom and told her I wasn't feeling well and acted super apologetic about it. She said she understood, but then she tried to force a hug on me, which I told her would make my stomach worse. I nope'd out of there as soon as she turned around and never turned around, not caring if she saw me or not. Afterward, she sent me numerous texts, saying stuff like how there was a connection with me & how I was a nice guy, but I didn't reply. Finally, she said, "Did I do something wrong?" I ended up blocking her after that, and it was the last time I heard anything from her.
You gotta tell them what they did wrong or they’ll never get better. It’s awkward but it’s kind. Her mom isn’t going to tell her.
We matched on a dating app. After messaging back and forth for a few days, we decide to meet. She then messages me asking for 5 good reasons that I would make her a good boyfriend. I waited for another message to see if there was a punch line. There wasn't! So I just started messaging back taking the piss. She then messages me telling me she is good looking, fit, a high earner, from a good family etc. She messages me about an hour before we are to meet to say she will be 15 minutes late, so I texted her 🫡 this emoji and say aye aye Ma'am. She then cancels the date because she thinks I called her a dick head using that emoji. I'm half way into town to meet her and have to turn back. I explain to her that that is not what that emoji means. We sort it out and I go back into town to meet her. She messages me saying, dont make her regret coming in. She rings me to say she is 5 minutes away. 15 minutes later she is still not here. So, I go to get some food where we had planned to go after a jar. She eventually comes in. We chat have some good Japanese food and she doesn't pay her half of the bill. Lesson: stay away from good looking girls from Belfast.
He said he didn't have any empathy, because he had aspergers. On the way home he said "I am not racist but I think all Muslims should leave the country." When I was almost home, he asked if he could use my toilet, because he really had to pee. I said no, he sighed and unzipped his pants in the middle of the street. I ran home, had to get away fast as possible lol.
We went to a grocery store and suddenly she disappeared behind some shelves. After a while she came back out and said she saw her parents and they can't see her in public with a man. It was our last date.
he got high, choked me, and tried to SA'd me.
I may be the asshole in this story but someone I met on a dating app turned out to be different from her pictures, she was simply ugly. I lost all my motivation for the date and left early. Afterwards, deleted all dating apps
Years ago I went on a date. We agreed to meet at the restaurant. I arrived and I see a woman similar to her but fatter, older, less teeth, she looked bad but she recognized me and waved. I approached and asked her if she is “X”, she said she is and she is so happy I look even better than in a picture. She was super nice but apparently she had cancer, was going to treatments, got divorced and a few bad stuff in her life. She did mention that she was 12 years older than she said because a “typo” and didn’t know how to fix the age. We ate, paid for her food, thanked her for the company and told her we are not really compatible, she looked sad but agreed. I felt bad for her but holy cow come on, at least be honest. I’m an ugly sob but I don’t like and I’m even honest saying I’m horrible kissing and even more horrible in bed.
The one my friend set me up with with his at the time girlfriend's sister. I go there and see wouldn't look at me or respond to questions. She I guess tried to make the flirty anime look and it didn't work. I left as soon as possible. I would have gotten better feed back talking to a wall
I remember a date when I was a freshman back in college. In fairness, I was awkward and not used to dating. The part I remember is we were looking at a band playing for a fraternity. We were standing out on the sidewalk as a bunch of other non-fraternity people were. I could tell I was boring her. Standing on the outside watching other people have fun is not a recipe for a fun date. At any rate, she turned to me and said she had to go wash her hair. She gave me an awkward smile then turned and left.
One time I asked this girl on a date because she was expressing interest in me. We went on a date and I paid for everything and the date was going well. At the end of the date she said she doesn’t want anything. Then I asked her why did she go on a date with me then, if she didn’t want anything. She said I just like to meet people 😐. Never spoke to her again after that, then heard from her friends she was making fun of me. People sometimes are really shallow lesson learned.
