Mine has to be the Frenchman who was divorced. BUT he had converted his house to make it into 2 separate homes with separate entrances etc - so his ex-wife and her love-child (the one she'd had after the affair that he'd divorced her over) could live there.


True story folks, happened in MA in February this year. Don't try this at home.....

I moved to Florida to spend some time with my family there (my mom and dad divorced when I was young and my dad moved there). So here I am 1100 miles from anyone I know and dropping my little sister off at work because her car was in the shop and I noticed one of her co workers. We were both definitely interested in each other and eventually worked out a time we were both free to go on a date. I met her at her house and she drove from there since I knew not where I was going being new to the state. Once in her car she said she was moving to a new house and needed to go there and drop some things off. Nothing big just some paint so she could paint the place later to her liking. Well her new home was kind of far and the entire way there she was on her phone talking... not kidding... never put it down. In mid sentence of the person on the other end of the phone she would stop, look at me and say "well say something". I never met a person that could carry on multiple conversations at the same time and PAY ATTENTION to either of them. Now she would also steer the car with her knees because she was busy lighting up joint after joint after joint. No kidding!!! I have nothing to do with drugs either. When we get to her house and drop off the paint she shows me around and says we can't leave just yet... and lights another joint. We have to wait for someone to drop off some more stuff. Well her ex husband arrives (nice guy... I drank a beer with him) to drop off some more supplies for her and she immediately starts to get some paint ready. She hands me a brush and tells me where she wants me to start painting. I told her there was no way I was spending my entire evening painting. I asked her to take me home and she said "soon" and lit another joint. After 3 hours I convinced her to take me home. The entire way back was like the entire way there on the phone constantly, critizing me because I was not talking and smoking joint after joint after joint. The next time I saw her at her job she was talking bad about me. Saying some really bad stuff. In her opinion I was an a**hole, inconsiderate and just complained all night. When I told one of her co workers what happened (a friend of my sister by the way) the other girl found out I told her what happend and then started telling everyone that she did not want to talk to me because I was sleeping with my sister (YUK!!!). I had to be because I was "on the phone with her all night during our date". I called her once to come and get me and she did not even answer.


I love people!!!!

I loved reading all these because you just cannot make up stuff like this. You cannot do it.

My worst date was when I was in my twenties and went out with an engineering student. I'd known him a while; he was really shy and really cute. We decided to go into the city for dinner and thought we'd meet at a train station midway between our towns. I got there first and was waiting in my car when he gets dropped off by his MOM. Off to dinner. Waiter comes and before I have a chance to say anything, he orders for both of us, drinks and food. End of night, I'm driving him home, get to his house and he leans over to kiss me goodnight and somehow manages to elbow me in the eye, knocking out my contact lens. Then asked if I lost my false eyelash (wasn't wearing false eyelashes.

I had a guy explain in great detail to me why / how he ended up with a kidnapping charge on his record.
Let me guess: He then said, "But my dear, you, have kidnapped my heart."

My worst first date? I went to meet a woman overseas I met online four years ago at a singles web site (not eH) and carried on a "relationship" for five months before going to meet her. She met me at the airport and seemed very sweet at first, but later that day, she became "Ms. Hyde". She put pressure on me to get married to her within six months, wanted me to pay for everything, verbally abused me several times, and cut me off from all contact with my family. I should have paid more attention to the "red flags" she sent to me through the daily emails and the weekly +2 hour-long telephone conversations (not exaggerating).

My worst first date wasn't all that bad, but it led to a pretty awful relationship...


1st date: He came to my house and we played airsoft. He accidentally shot me in the mouth, and I came to school with a large welt on my lip! (It went over great in the dorm :P)


1st month was okay


2nd month- he cheated, we almost ended it, I gave him another chance (bad move)


3rd month- we broke up. Here is the kicker. Right after we broke up he gets this real philosophical look and says, "You know something? I've really learned a lot from you. I really wanted a skinny girl, but you taught me there is more important than looks" I was about 130 and a size 6.


What can I say? Live and learn, eh?

Cindy_lou_who, that's pretty effing scary. The guy who informed me that he went to jail gave me a rather detailed account of what he did to go to jail. I acted like I wasn't bothered at all by the whole thing, moved the date along and eventually got the hell out of there. I haven't returned any of his phone calls and he doesn't know where I live or work. So phew.
