Okay, I once had a woman where the waiter brought her something different that what she ordered.


I hung, suspended out of time, waiting to see if she would eat it anyway … she did not; total deal-breaker, right?
Depends upon the dish - did the waiter bring her a better dish and she declined? Could be she had a better dish in mind? Nah, that can't be it - who really likes frog legs anyways??

I once had a date follow me into the bathroom to see if I pee standing up.

Once they’re wrapped around you, decide!

I went on a date several years ago that was just awful. A mutual friend set us up. We talked on the phone first and things seemed alright and we decided to meet for dinner a few days later.





I should have called things off right away when we met at the restaurant. As soon as she walked in, she told me she was on a diet and wasn't going to order anything. Instead, I decided to try and see what would happen.





I couldn't get her to open up to save my life. I'll be the first to admit that I'm not all that good at small talk, but sheesh! I was lucky to get three or four monosyllabic words out of her for any question I asked. I couldn't get any conversation started on any topic to save my life. Several times through the night she checked her phone or talked to other people she knew that happened to be in the restaurant.





Needless to say, we never spoke again after that.

What....you don't do 'bailouts' ???
She must be waiting for his 'stimulus' package!

Thanks for the input so far! I LOVE hearing men's dating stories. The first couple of guys I met on-line sounded good on-line, okay on the phone (I never meet someone whose voice I haven't heard, just so I can get an idea about hisreal life character, which can't be done through computer communication alone). One guy's story I'll never forget is the one I met for dinner (only one I hadn't had a phone conversation with - learned a lesson) who went on and on about his former dates all trying to get him into bed afterward. Very strange man and quite unattractive.


When I have no interest in seeing a man again, I think I send out clear vibes (no one likes to tell another to theirface that they're not interested, butsaying you would like to see them again is WRONG if you don't mean it)and I also adamantly insist on paying myshare (even if heoffers to pay)as it's the only fair thing to do.


Please,keep them coming - I hang on every word!!! Okay, maybethat's because I'm really bored at work.....!

Eww - definitely immature and rude behavior on her part.

I was out on a first date with this lady, and I took her to the movies and we had a nice dinner afterward. The date was going really well, and we were having a good time. On the way home, a skunk ran out in front of my car....and the 45 minute drivehome was rather unpleasant!

Reposted from "Worst date ever stories":


Well, I'm fairly new to the whole eH thing, so no dates from here yet. However, I'm going to start the motion to broaden this thread to "worst date ever" stories. I think this notion is far more amusing. So, here goes. I asked this girl out on a date after we'd been talking and flirting back and forth for a few days, and she said yes. I put on some nice clothes and did the whole pre-date ritual of trying to look handsome, and on the way to her house I stopped and cut the most beautiful wild rose for her that I could find. When I got to her house, I gave her the flower, which she seemed to like, and we left for the movies. On the way there we talked and joked around a bit. We watched a comedy, and afterwards I took her to the restaurant that she wanted eat at. I thought the evening was going well, and on the way home she asked if we could ride around some in my truck to talk some more. Well, as I was driving around, she saw some of her friends and asked if we could stop. Trying to be a gentleman, I did as she asked, and before I knew it, she was all over another guy and went home with him. It was definately an eye opening experience. I suppose I've had worse dates, but I honestly believe if I were to elaborate on those stories, I would probably be banned from this site for being vulgar (there's just no clean way to tell them...just like most good jokes, lol). Well, I'm sure that someone out there can top my cleanest bad date story, so I'm looking forward to watching this thread for a while. Take care everyone.
