Lighthearted!! Just that really. I love hearing these

ill start:

went on a date with someone and we played shuffleboard and after every turn of his he would loudly exclaim 'GO ON THE TSG' (his initials) he also did it after random sentences like 'I'll get this drink, YES THE TSG)

another guy would say WOOP WOOP and BOOM after every sentence. He ordered a steak and said to the waiter 'I'm going to have the steak please, well done, (another ick) WOOP WOOP

Another guy we were DTD and he kept thrusting in a complete circular motion and I quite literally dried up and left

another DTD time and the guys top lip and nostrils would spasm / quiver - I could get past that though.

please tell me yours, I could do with a laugh!

I'd forgotten this till I read this thread...
An ex, at the point I was about to orgasm would say "you're welcome"

FeegleFion · 01/08/2025 16:32

Went on a day time date at a local spot and I arrived first. When he arrived he handed me a little black plastic bag telling me he had a gift for me… yes, it was a s*x toy.

I was utterly shocked and confused. I thrust it back to him and left.

One man I really liked kept referring to his penis as “he” and “him”

I went out with a man who referred to my vagina as she. “Is she having a good time?”
🤢

DTD once and half way through he pulled out an unsealed sex toy.
When I questioned him had it been used before, he said his ex wife and him went to Ann Summers together and bought it for Valentine’s Day. 😷
Got up and left. It looked crusty doubt he’d even washed it!

I was seeing a 57 year old man who would refer to himself as a "tired teddy". Ick!! He also really, really loved Harry Styles and talked about him all the time.

I had sex with a guy who did it like he was doing press ups..

My ex used to call himself a tired teddy. Or TT for short.

He was a twat.

Not the same person as he's still under 57

GETTINGLIKEMYMOTHER · 01/08/2025 16:59

We once had a pair of young Aussies (dd of friends plus her BF) to stay, they were off every day doing the London sights. One day they told us about a good place they’d found to buy lunch - Pret A Manger - rhyming with Away In A Manger!
I didn’t have the heart to correct them.

Had sex with a bloke who used to walk around the bedroom afterwards for ages with the condom half hanging off presumably to catch the drips....aaaaggggggghhh! He also didn't pay for anything himdelf if he could help it.......but when we went out he would grab a cake and anything else he could get his hands on when we were in a cafe and he saw me get my purse out. Needless to say the relationship didn't last long.

MyDeftDuck · 01/08/2025 17:02

There’s been quite a few over the years but the one that stands out for me was a guy who would get beer froth all around his lips and then lick it off by poking his tongue right out and circling 360 degrees to lick the froth 🍺
Oh, and another who used to pick his toe nails……..and eat them 🤢🤮

Middlechild3 · 01/08/2025 17:05

Years ago. Met in a pub, he walked me home, had a good snog then I went inside and realised I had a bit of kebab cabbage in my mouth. I hadn't had a kebab. My flatmates called him the cabbage kisser thereafter.

Just think though, eventually some other women must marry these guys....

With some of them, the complaint is a trivial ick and a dealbreaker for the person writing the post...they might not be dealbreakers for other women.

To be fair, we will all have something icky about us, according to whose perspective it is.

Ummmmm.....sex isn't a rude word!

NeverCouldGetTheHangOfThursdays · 01/08/2025 17:20

This thread has had me howling 😂

A couple that I can remember:

On a first date, in a nice little country pub. Things had been going rather well and I was thinking there could well be a date number two until... he randomly did a very, very good impression of Sid the Sloth from Ice Age. Not only did he sound just like him but he actually managed to look like him too. There was no second date.

Another time, another bloke. About to DTD and he announced "I'm gonna make you feel like a million dollars". Just the fact that he clearly had such a high opinion of his abilities made me clench a little, but using that phrase was a bit... eww. I let him carry on, just on the off chance, but it was decidedly underwhelming and a little boring. I'm sure I must've made the right noises in the right places though because he looked ever so pleased afterwards 😂There was no second shag.

I dated this boy when I was around 16. One evening we got v drunk on cheap cider in a group. I ended up snogging him. Next day I woke up and the skin around my mouth was killing me, red & sore but I couldn't work out why. Next time I kissed him realised the painful reason. When kissing, he would open his mouth and sink his teeth into my skin. Ie, his kiss was actually a bite! He dumped me fairly early on. He then went in to date one of my school mates. She came to school with red marks around her mouth, poor girl!

I went out with a bloke who nearly broke my jaw when he kissed me. He just sort of locked onto my mouth like a clamp. And the most bizarre bit......he was a dentist. I'm not making this up.

Oh heck... another one...

Dated a guy, went away for a night together, first time
I woke in the middle of the night and stirred and opened my eyes. He was propped up on his elbow just staring at me. And I said 'what are you doing'. He said he'd been staring at me all night because he didn't want to miss one minute of looking at me.

Last date. And my gut feeling was right, he turned a bit stalker.

Was he Steven Tyler?

FeegleFion · 01/08/2025 17:38

Do you feel better now? It’s not that deep 😂

That made me snort out loud with laughter. I can't imagine a single woman on the planet wanting a second turn of that.
