I am from Yorkshire (which was stated on my OLD profile at the time) and was living in London.
Met a guy form Essex, messaged for a while before meeting, and - I thought - learned about each other (he obviously didn't remember anything I told him about myself...)
We met in a pub before dinner, I ordered a pint of Cider and the first thing he said was (in a disgusted tone) "oh wow, I've never met a woman who drinks pints" - I am 5ft1 and a size 6 so maybe he was surprised... but then he asked if I'd like a cocktail instead as it was more lady like (should've left then and there!)
He then proceeded to talk about how awful northern (particularly Yorkshire) accents are, and how it makes people sound really stupid, and uneducated. It is the worst accent to him and it turns him off entirely, wont even consider dating someone from Yorkshire - I did at this point say how I was northern, but he kind of batted it off saying something like "your accent isn't that bad"
(FYI his accent was a massive turn off for me, he sounded like Joey Essex, but I would never disregard someone based on an accent as it has nothing to do with who the person actually is)
He then went into another lecture about culture and how many immigrants and asylum seekers there are in the UK and how it needs to be better controlled as we're loosing our British identity - I stated the opposite, that I love the mix of cultures in Britain, which is what I think makes us who we are, and that my Grandad wouldn't be alive today if he has not been allowed to seek asylum from Yemen when he was a child, when all his family were killed by the Taliban.
He then looked at me and said "hmmm yes I thought you weren't full British, you do look a bit foreign"
Then to the restaurant😖
He asked me if I was ordering the salad... Big fat no... I am also a vegetarian and I got a 15 minute lecture at this point about how unhealthy I must be without eating meat, as we need meat to survive as humans, and that one day I'll get seriously ill (Been veggie 20 years and haven't dropped dead yet)
I order a pasta dish and incidentally I use my knife and fork in the incorrect hands, always have, always will, and he stops, slams down his cutlery, and with a horrified look on his face says
"You can't eat like that here, it's a nice place, you're eating like an animal"
By this point I was more than ready to leave, so I though f**k it and I said
"No, this is what an animal eats like" and I proceeded to put down my knife and fork, and stick my face into my pasta and eat if off the plate like a dog... 😂
Well dinner ended pretty quick, no desserts and he paid and left while I was in the toilet cleaning past sauce off my face!!
The waitress thought it was hilarious, and told me I had dodged a massive bullet as she had seen him there before on other dates, and that his dates usually left crying before the end of the meal!!
I am sure it was a fun game he played with himself... let's see how much shit these women will put up with before they snap! Lol
I bet he's still single
