How old were you when you went on your first date?


Now THIS is a funny story.
I was 14 or 15. I met the guy at the swimming pool where I used to go after school and I ALWAYS had to bring my younger brother too. My brother started bothering this group of foreign guys my age so I swam over there to get him to stop but we all ended up playing around instead, throwing a ball at each other etc. Afterwards one of the guys gave me his number. He did not speak the language of our country and no English either! One of his cousins though who was in his 30s or something spoke English and could translate what he wanted to say to me lmao. We kept hanging out by the swimming pool and he'd always call me at midnight for some reason and babble on and SING to me in his language on the phone, he even became friends with my brother lol. Then one day he asked me out to the mall. He bought me a giant rose that I was forced to carry around all the time which was really embarrassing to me, and he took me to a café after wandering around a bit and sat there talking to me and I understood nada, just kind of a "smile a nod"-type of situation. XD At one point he called up his older cousin and asked him to translate things for him to me on the phone. Truly something typically strange that would happen to me.
16, and yes it went very well. I can’t remember where we went first because it was when I met @disgustingweebtrash and we kind of went on like 10+ dates within the span of a week. I feel like it might’ve been waffle house though. We fed each other food it was fun.
I was 15 or 16, I think. It was tense, to say the least. She was so beautiful, and it felt like my heart was about to explode out of my chest.
She eventually took my hand and I felt like I just melted, execpt my penis because I was an extremely horny teenager. When the date ended and she was on her way to leave, I managed to push myself to stop her and give her a kiss... on the cheek, because I panicked and somehow missed her lips. And then we hugged for what felt like a few seconds, but it apparently lasted much longer than that. I'll never forget that hug, I almost didn't want to let go. I screwed up a lot on that date, but I think it went well anyway
Well.. a school dance? Like 14. A girl asked me out to Sadies. It went well... senior year we went to homecoming. The picture is below.

As for like an actual date. I asked out a girl named Julie. I had never been on a romantic date and was so scared. It went well. After like 3 dates of being shy and not making a move... she moved on. We are still friendly 12 years later. She is married to some old guy.

That depends what your definition of a date is cause at 21 I had multiple meet ups with a guy I liked but he didn't like me back - at 21 I also had multiple meet ups with a guy who liked me but I later told him I did not feel the same way - I also had many blind dates and sometimes repeating meet up with guys looking for ladies to date but it was never mutual interest that lasted longer than a few weeks. Then there was a guy who was single and never previously dated anybody else before me but he was super super super insecure and later denied we ever dated cause he got concerned I was cheating on him - then he ghosted me too. There was also a guy where we liked each other but we never officially dated and he hated me when I told him I wasn't available for him.
I was like 16? My mom dropped me off at the movie theater to meet the guy. I'd never honestly talked to the guy in person before even though he went to my school, but we'd talked online and he asked me out. It was incredibly awkward. His cousin happened to tag along.. weird.
We sat to watch the movie and I was just not feeling it. I kinda crossed my arms over my waist and shut him out, didn't allow him to make any moves, didn't give any encouragement. Afterwards, we went and talked a tiny bit in front of the theater while I waited for my mom to come back for me.
He tried talking to me online a bit more afterwards, but I hit him with an "I'm sorry, I just don't see this going anywhere with us" and called it a day.
If we talk about any meeting with a partner, my first date was when I was 15. My parents had no idea, I secretly snuck out to meet him, we didn't go anywhere we just walked and talked. He gave me a birthday gift that I snuck in by dropping it in the sofa from the window of the living room where nobody would see it, then went to main door empty-handed. My gift was a few books, I kept them in the shelf with other books so they blended right in and nobody could tell.
If we talk about a 'proper date' it was with my boyfriend last November. I'm only considering the day we went out alone, because prior to that we've been out but my family was there with me to see him. It was a lunch date at a shopping mall. He bought himself a shirt that I chose for him, he bought a few skincare items for his mom (he asked if I wanted anything, I said no). Then we ate lunch together, shared each other's food, and I went back home.
I was 17, and it ok... We went to the movies, and he bought me a large slushie (the blue one because it's my favourite) and i ALWAYS get a slushie at the movies. It's my thing.
Now, being 18 and inexperienced, I forgot this slushie turns your entire mouth, lips, and teeth blue.
So, when we got out of the movies and stood in broad daylight (it was summer, and was light until about 8pm) I wanted to have my first kiss, he hesitated. I was like wtf?
Turns out I looked like I just consumed an entire colony of blue-blooded trolls. My teeth, lips, everything was blue as hell lmao.
We dated briefly for about a month, and called it off. We only kissed once during the time we dated, we decided we made better friends than relationship / couple.
I was 21 when I went on my first, wasn't so good though, the other person was just busy on the phone. So after trying to make conversations for a bit, I did what I do best and focused on the food. Basically had a date with myself while there was some stranger sitting on the other side of the table
First real date was 25, she was 19 and very pretty. Her dad was not so happy. it went well but it ended odd. I left stuff for her at her door which is what I thought supposed to do, candy and flowers, and called her not long later. ut I didn't know how to followup, lead, communicate properly and I messed it up, so I bombed myself out.
I still remember her name but couldn't find her years later. was a moment in time...
I was 14.. didn't go well at all even though it was Valentine's day a couple of people me and my date knew were at the place we were and just automatically decided to make it a double date.. I ended up talking to my guy friend's date more than mine hated it
I was like age 18-19 , me and this girl from School went
to the movies than out to eat but all she did was talk
about this guy who really would not deep down give
her the time of the day no offense to her but that is how
i felt back than?
I was 21. I wasn't exactly cool in high school. Me and my date went to the movie theater... and my dad came along as well and he sat between us. Most awkward date of my life. Thankfully my dad doesn't come on dates with me anymore lol
It depends on what you call it. Technically i was 12 and it went good. I was shy and just learning about boys and girls.
Real date was 18 and she ended up becoming a girlfriend. It went good we watched tombstone.
I was twelve and I think it went well (・∀・)👌 it was a double date with a friend and her boyfriend (≧▽≦) wasn't really awkward since we were all well aqauinted
I was 15-16 I think. She was my 'girlfriend' although we never even kissed. She came with two friends and they left us alone in the mall. We talked and walked around holding hands and although it's been a long time I somehow remember everything.
I was about 14. We were watching a movie at the theaters and we were both so nervous to even snuggle up on each other lol
First proper date I was 19. We watched two consecutive movies and had dinner. It went well and I liked him a lot. We've been together 5 years now
I was twelve and his parents chaperoned. I felt very odd when I was made to pray before eating in the middle of Applebee's.
17 well i enjoyed it. I got a second.
Turns out she didn't enjoyed the first one but she liked my personality and gave me another chance.
About 15, we went to the swimming baths then went and got some chips from the cafe and walked to the bus stop and took her home. We sat on a bench I didn't want the night to finish. We kissed and went home...
I mean, I had "dates" with my little lovers in kindergarten. Lol But technically 16, and it went okay, even though our moms were sitting a booth across from us at the restaurant. We played footsies under the table though. Lol
I was 12 went to a drive in movie my sister was dating her brother was ok if hadn't been on date sisters boyfriend would have paid me to disappear
I was 16, and she was a big girl of who I didn’t like, but my cousins pushed me to take her to the movies, so I did. I didn’t do much with her but watch a movie and head back home
My 1st date & I were both 16.
His parents were (and still are) close friends of my parents.
I think like 15. hated having my mom drive us around lmao but good memories
6! And it was basically our moms pimping us out loool. First “real” date I was 14.
16
my dad went with us
draw your own conclusions. _-_
Date date or park date 13 or 10 they both went well 1 ended in a kiss
I think 16 years old and it went disastrously hahaha
My hubby took me on my first date and it was great😊
I was 17, he was 21. It went alright but i didn’t feel anything towards him.
I dated with a feminist girl when I was 25. But this date was different. She was actually using me for her wants. But I didn't resist cuz she was so beautiful. She has red hair and nose piercing.
I was 17, it was pretty bad and I wouldn't call it a real date but he said it was and that we are a couple now
I've never really been on a date and I'm 22 years old, I mean I've been on a few outings with girls I like but they were always " just to catch up" but all those outings went well I'm just not dating material apparently lol
It was in 2009, it didn't go well in her view because in her opinion I talked too much about school, and she preferred someone more relaxed about life. Later on she married a bus driver. 🙄
17,, like Disney movie ,, we were like kids that time
18, only a few months ago. It was amazing. He took me out for breakfast, we talked and talked and talked.
I was 16. I think it went okay, my father was the problem. *shrugs*
First real date, I was twenty. It went well. I just hung out at her place and made out with her for most of the date.
No it went shite! he kept talking about what his kinks are and his exes
I was 16.. She was 17.. And it was the same day i lost my virginity.
Not sure if it counts as a date, since neither one called it a date explicitly, but I asked her number after school, and we met in the weekend to go for a coffee in a small store
I don't remember I think somewhere in my early 20's.
I was 16... it was nice. We were too shy with each other but we hugged for a long time.
I was 18 and it went well till he tried to kiss me and I freaked out.
I'm almost 21, not been on a date till now. I'm more focused on developing myself and to be honest I'm also really shy so I've never asked anyone out. I believe it will be good, whoever I go out with. Now only virtual dates are possible 😅 if anyone is interested, that is. XD
When I was just 15 I date a girl or make out in 14 with a girl who meet me when I was travelling
I was 15
Went... Ok. I was nervous because I wasn't allowed to date and I thought my brother could walk by or something
I was 12, when my mom drove me and a girl I liked to the movies.
I'm guessing I might be in my 20s when I go on my first date :') 😂
My first date was freshman summer, but my first girlfriend was in 6th grade.
27. Pretty well considering neither my girlfriend nor I drive. So our parents had to drive us.
Last year so I was 14 and it was awkward af cuz we hardly said any word to each other
18 and it definitely didn't go well, at least not for me, was rather awkward
I think I was five years old, does a date at Chuck E. Cheese count?
I don't think I've ever been on a proper date before, I'll let you know if it ever happens though!
I think it was at a Trump rally in 2015, was a pretty good first date
That’s a good question I have to really think about that... maybe 18
I guess 13 i don't remember to much but it was cool and kind of funny
About 13. It went about as well as a date at that time could.
I was 15 when I went on my first date. Did it last no.
I was 17 .. I dated a girl older than me.. she was 29 then.
12 i think took her to the movies then jack n box lol. Spent my entire allowance
