We've all had our fair share of bad dates, and most of the time we think we have it the worst.

However, this week a random scroll on Twitter showed us that maybe we haven't had the worst dates after all. From being arrested on a first date to bragging about wealth, and being told their fat - these Twitter users had us with our jaws on the floor.

So sit back and start scrolling through some of these worst date stories that will have you sitting pretty with your dating life and realizing very quickly that it could always be worse. Enjoy!
