Can you please describe the Worst Date You've Ever Been On?

First date I was ever on:
We had messaged on a dating site for awhile, long messages and seemed to be getting along and want the same things. He had a picture but it wasn’t very clear so you couldn’t really see much of what he looked like. I didn’t think much of it. We decided to meet up at a mall. At first we didn’t find each other so he called me and we talked on the phone while trying to find each other, which we eventually did. My first thought when I saw him was ”No!”. He wasn’t my type physically and he was wearing broken, dirty workout shoes, weird smelling washed out sweatshirt that was too small (arms not long enough and a bit short like it shrunk in laundry, and no it wasn’t designed that way) and some sort of rain/wind jacket with weird pattern. Whatever. He hugged me and it was awkward. He was silent so I suggested we go to a cafe, wanting to give it a chance (we lived a few hours away from each other and had met half way) and he said yes and then went silent again. He walked slightly behind me and I tried talking to him but it was difficult. We ordered and sat next to each other. He didn’t say anything and was SO nervous and I get it, I’m shy too, but yeah. I tried to make conversation. I asked him things and he replied with short answers and asked no questions back so eventually we just sat there silently looking at others because I got tired of trying to talk to him and also didn’t know what to say anymore. I was ready to go home, but he suggested a walk. Ok. I tried talking to him again during the walk but again he gave short replies and asked nothing back and didn’t tell me anything that could continue the conversation. So I also went quiet and we walked around town for an hour in complete silence. Eventually I told him we should get back to our busses/trains but he wanted to go to the movies. I was too much of a people pleaser and said ok. He couldn’t decide what movie to see and said nothing, I said whatever you can decide I don’t care but no he couldn’t decide. We were there like 30-40 min and he was mostly silent and awkwardly laughing here and there asking me to pick instead but whenever I suggested a movie he said ”mmm I don’t know” and went silent trying to decide again. Anyway, eventually a movie was decided on. It was a relief to just be able to watch the movie and then know I’d go home. After the movie though he wanted to go out and eat which I said no, I have to catch my bus now so we said good bye. He texted me later and said he was so sorry for the bad date and that he had been so nervous and if I could please give him another chance and go on a second date. I didn’t.

Another guy was a bit of a red flag even before I met him and I shouldn’t have gone. We also met at a dating site and messaged for a while. We decided to go on a date and on the day of the date (but a few hours before the date) I had a bad headache (meds didn’t help) and asked him if we could reschedule. He said no absolutely not and I should come anyway it’s a matter of respect and if I want to cancel we won’t reschedule. I thought it was weird and inconsiderate but whatever I went on the date, even though I thought to myself I shouldn’t. Anyway. We meet up and things seems ok at first. We go on a walk and he talks and asks questions. He then asks about what my hobbies and interests are and when I tell him (baking, painting, playing a pc game, i like travelling, reading etc) he’s like so nothing else? because nah that’s not really hobbies, so you’ve got no real hobbies? It was weird. Then he started talking about his money. How much money he had in his savings account right now and how much he had invested and talked about the stock market. Then started hinting at me to tell him how much money I had in my account. He didn’t straight up ask me but almost and you could tell he wanted me to tell him and he was fishing for it. I dodged the question. At the end of the date he said he was going to a friends apartment to play boardgames with his friends now and that I should join them next time. That night he messaged my friend on a dating site (not knowing it was my friend) and started a conversation with her and almost right away asked how things went for her on the dating site and said that yeah I was on a date today (clearly talking about the date with me) but it wasn’t great because she had no hobbies and how he think people with no hobbies are boring. Almost at the exact same time he messaged me and thanked me for the date and said he’s going to take me out to eat next weekend. I said thank you but I’m not really feeling it and don’t think we’re a great match but wished him well. He replied something like hahaha okkk I agree I just tried to be nice that’s why I asked you out for a second date and thought well i could give you a chance anyway but whatever I agree I don’t really want to see you either hahaha.

Of course I can …
I excused myself and went to use the restroom and when I came back, I sat down to take a sip of my drink, and it had twice the alcohol that it had before I left
I asked him what was going on with my drink. He said he wanted to find out if I’m crazy or not
I said what does alcohol have to do with that
He said if you are crazy, the alcohol will bring the crazy out of you
Needless to say, I excused myself and went home
That had to be the worst date I’ve ever been on

I recounted this before but I will repeat it.

Freshman year in college I had a friend who was a commuter that lived in the city. He and his girlfriend knew somebody that they thought that I should meet. So the next Saturday night they pick me up at my dorm and drive to a restaurant in the next town. This girl was supposed to be there.

So we get there and she is waiting for us. She was nice looking so I figured it might be okay. So we all sit at a table and we are talking. I tell her that I was in Air Force ROTC and wanted to be a pilot. She was sort of a hippie and she thought that I was a fascist and a baby burner. I decided that there was no way this was going to work out. We really did not like each other.

My friend and his girlfriend thought it would be funny if they took off and left me there with her., It took a few minutes before we realized what happened. So she tells me that she was leaving. So I ask her if she would give me a ride back to my dorm and she says no. t would have been a 5 or 6 mile walk in the freezing cold and I did not have my winter coat on.

So before she drove off I jumped on the hood of her car and got a good grip on the hood. She was trying to shake me off but I was able to hang on. After 2 or three laps around the parking lot she finally gives up and stops and lets me into her car. We had a really quiet ride back to my dorm. I thanked her for the ride and she did not say anything. Looking back now I wish that I asked her if we could have a second date.

[Sevenpointfive]

you should've said, "but i'm trying to get someone pregnant tonight! i haven't burned a lesbians baby in a month".

[exitseven]

@Sevenpointfive oh man- thst's cold.

[Amy10223]

You must be pretty strong to have gotten on the hood of the car and hung on. You should try a bull at a rodeo! lol

[exitseven]

@Amy10223 She had an older Dodge Dart. The hood was very sturdy and I could really get my hands on it. Every time I tell this story I have to laugh a little bit. It really was a crazy thing to do. I wonder if she ever thinks about me?

[Amy10223]

She Probably does. I still don’t know how you did that.

[exitseven]

@Amy10223 They do not make cars like that anymore. This thing was built like a tank as were most cars from the 70s/

[Amy10223]

That's the car I learned how to drive on.

[Whaler]

So I bought tickets to Madison square garden for a concert for the musician who made the soundtracks for the Studio Ghibli movies. I drove a girl there as we planned on going there with her friends. The entire time the friends were very rude and standoffish with me and my date and I didn’t really get to talk. We got to see everything visited a few stores in NYC and then her friends drove her back home. The next morning she immediately stated she no longer saw me as someone she wanted to date over religious reasons.

There is obviously plenty more to this story, but that’s the main gist of it.

[Simslover92]

Not really a date but worst experience I encountered with a guy was when I had to spend an entire night with a guy in his room while my best friend hanged with her guy friend upstairs. I was kind of like the wingman if you will. Out of all the movies in the world he could have chosen, he chose to play I spit on your Grave making things super awkward and super creepy. He would proceed to try to hang out after that but I declined.

[exitseven]

@Simslover92 That reminds me of another horrible night. I was hanging out with a few friends at some bar. There was a girl there that I thought seemed very nice, She was the friend of a friend. She was a year older than me but I still thought she was nice. It got late and I asked her if she wanted me to give her a ride home and she accepted. While I was driving I was trying to think how I would ask her out. We got to her house and I was just about to ask her if she would go out with me but then she said that she and her roommate was having a party and if I would like to come. I told her that I would really like that. So on Friday I drive over to her place. She spends the whole night on the phone with some guy and crying. I got really drunk and drove home. I didn;t even say goodbye to her. I never saw her again.

[Simslover92]

@exitseven Geez Louise... yeah that definitely was a horrible night. Who spends the whole night on the phone with some guy and crying at that? I don't blame you for getting really drunk and never seeing her again. Your story definitely trumps mine.

[exitseven]

@Simslover92 Not really what I was going for. I do not know what was going on with her. It was sort of a dick move to invite me and then ignore me the whole night. I did not know anybody else that was there. I just stood around like an idiot.

[Simslover92]

@exitseven it was definitely a dick move. Sorry that happened to you.

[exitseven]

We all have horror stories. It just makes me appreciate what i have.

First date with a girl I met online. Sit down to eat, and she starts with the 1000 questions.
Her: "IHop or Waffle House?"
Me: "IHop"
Her: "Target or WalMart"
Me: "Target"
Her: "Ford or Chevy?" Me: "Ford"
Her: "Blue cheese or ranch salad dressing?"
Me: "Why are you asking so many dumbass questions?"

i've had so few dates but none of them were terrible.

i was friends with a girl in highschool. she had this gorgeous friend and we had a class together that year. somewhere in the term she asked me to lunch and made it clear it was a date. i did and didn't pick up on that for a long time, so we go to a chinese food restaurant (which i hate chinese food). we talk and i struggle through but we didn't really connect if i remember. i wasn't thinking i had a chance with this girl so i treated her like a friend. i was like 16 and didn't have money yet so i couldn't pay for both of us when we left. that pretty much killed it. we spent the next week or two getting along okay in class and i asked her out to lunch again. she said no. i was quickly removed from that table within a few days because it was awkward. i saw her years later and i dodged a bullet. she'd gained a couple of hundred pounds and i wouldn't have been okay with that anyways. not horrible but uncomfortable.

[Amy10223]

It was with this guy who came to give me a price on paving my driveway! He had my number and texted me. I was foolish enough to go after thinking, that's not good for the company he worked for. Took me to Applebees, I'm not crazy about it, and then he talked all night about things I wasn't interested. He left texting me after this all the time, was a horrible speller, from Ireland with a thick accent. I found out later that he was married (he spelled it MARREED) after he wanted to take me to stay overnight in Atlantic City, NJ. On a second date! You know he didn't want to just gamble there.

Back when I was in my late 20's (the mid 80's) I met a girl at the front bar of a tavern. She had simply walked in and sat at the bar stool next to me. We talked briefly, and decided to go back to the Live Music Room, and proceeded to do much drinking and dancing. At some point I blacked out, and the next thing I remember, I was at her place, on the floor getting ready to have sex. I immediately noticed I felt very nauseous, and headed for her bathroom to puke. I then found out that I had parked my car down a steep bank, and couldn't back it up to the level ground. I spent the rest of my time there trying to call for a tow truck, still very drunk. This had to have been the most irritating experience this girl had ever had.

[slatyb]

It wasn't horrible. Arranged a date on Match, then when meeting I discovered that she posted a picture that was ten years and a hundred pounds ago.

Caught having anal sex in a park by police, we didn't see the cctv cameras

[Agape93]

Went out with a Indian dude in Portland. Before the food even comes out, he tries to impose

[NathanDavis]

nope... I have not had bad dates like that

[front2back]

Let's go over the list

[front2back]

For some reason that list didn't post.
1) She was late
2) She lied about her age, said she was 21 when she was really 19
3) Kept looking at her phone
4) Had little interesting to tell about herself. Questions about the future, hobbies, vacation spots, etc. did not have any good details of answers.
5) Her only "interesting" stories were about how she nearly got date r---d multiple times at parties. She would get completely hammered and literally dragged away by some guy before a friend came to help rescue her.

Overall when it was done (after only 30 minutes) she went off and I blocked her number.
