In a lot of ways, a decent date is all about knowing what not to say. Like sure, be yourself, but yeesh. At the same time, it looks like these people dodged some serious bullets, so scratch that, if you're horrible, be yourself as much as you can right up front so people know what you're like. If these aren't enough to make you feel better about your own dating experiences, here are some more people's worst first date stories.

    Font - Kaedon-Bolas - 14 hr. ago · edited 40 min. ago Her boyfriend that I knew nothing about showed up. Edit: did not expect this to get that much attention, so I'll add some details to try and give some answers. In high school, went on a date with a girl I met through a friend. We had been texting a while and seemed to really hit it off. She brought a (girl) friend because we'd been talking, but I'm still a relatively unknown guy, I get it. Guy crashes the date, chatting casually with everyone

    Font - shah357 · 10 hr. ago We'd been to lunch a few times but this was the first real romantic date. We met in biology class in college. She was gorgeous and smart and had a smile that could melt diamonds. I was in a group project with her and took her to lunch, and she confessed she had a crush on me. So we kissed before going back to class and made plans for a date and went out that night. And we had a wonderful time. Until about the time she asked me what my "deal-breaker" for dating was. As

    Font - Bazrum - 10 hr. ago 3 I had more in common with the chaperone she brought to the ice cream shop, and didn't seem to have anything to say that wasn't “as a godly person..." Like, fine you brought someone to make sure I wasn't a creeper, I understand that... but when you make it very clear that it's your youth pastor acting as the chaperone, and invite him to sit at our table, then say nothing until the pastor felt bad enough to break the silence to talk to ME...maybe don't cry and ask why

    Font - smcmbrn · 11 hr. ago It was my first and only blind date which a mutual friend of ours set up. She arrived and parked in a disabled space, got out of the car telling me she uses her nans disabled pass which didn't sit well with me but carried on anyway. We went bowling and to dinner, she was really rude to the service staff in both places which I found embarrassing and uncomfortable. Cut the dinner short, paid, left and never saw her again.

He arrived at our first date (coffee) with a literal presentation of non-negotiable demands he required from a future partner. Including, but not limited to: Must be housewife, produce him two boys and a girl (in that order, gender specified), not work or desire a career, move 500 miles away to live on an acreage in his parents house (like, with them also living there), not have any mal

    Font - Iperovic · 10 hr. ago This happened last week When we got to the good old "what you do for a living" she straight up tried to sell me in on her MLM scheme When I politely noted I wasn't interested but I'm happy to go back to our previous discussions she got argumentative in the good old salesperson losing a client kind of way When it was clear the mood was ruined and we weren't going anywhere from there I stood up, paid for our drinks at the counter, and got out Bonus points for some of m

    Font - aknat907 · 9 hr. ago She criticized absolutely EVERYTHING. The car I was driving, clothes I was wearing, cologne I chose. We were supposed to go bowling, dinner and then drinks. When an attendant came over to ask if we wanted anything I ordered my snacks and asked if she wanted anything. "You mean you don't know? What kind of date is this?" Halfway through our game she mentioned I was bringing up the wrong conversation topics. Thankfully my brother called me out of the blue asking to borr

    Font - Hattix · 9 hr. ago Nice and simple. A nicegirl gets it out of the way early. "I guess I better tell you that I'm going to expect you to stop talking to any other girls you might have in your life." She then explains yes, everyone, no she's serious, she gets jealous easily. That one was the only first date I ever ended early. Even the one where the woman brought her little brother I saw through.

    Font - ktswift12 - 11 hr. ago Matched with a quy on Tinder in 2014 while I was in grad school and new to the city I was living in. He seemed cool enough and lived in a small town about 45 minutes outside my city. He offered to take me out for dinner, andI agreed and said I would meet him at dinner (in regard to my own safety). He insisted on picking me up and showed up with a liter of Fireball and sat down on my couch and started pouring shots of it for me and my roommate. He seemed like a genui

Turned up with his laptop and said he needs to do some work and gave me some cash to get him a coffee and something I want. I was like "okay sure" and stood in the queue watching him as he put on his headphones and opened his laptop. I came back with the drinks and he said he just needs to finish this and took a call. I just sat there for another 40 minutes with zero conversation and him typing/chatting away. This
