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!

A guy id had a crush on declared his undying love to me and I instantly went off him. I was too much of a fuss to tell him I didn't actually like him that way anymore as he was a good friend and my female friend had told him I liked him! I kind of avoided him for a few weeks and ended up getting with my husband! I've always felt bad but it worked out for me in the end

Had a couple of dates with a guy who was a complete know-all. He HAD to be right about everything. He HAD to contradict where possible everything I said!

Why I went on a second date I do not know but it only became more apparent what he was like on the second date.

Went for lunch to a pub with good food. He had meatballs and spaghetti. He said... try the meatballs, they're delicious. Gave me half a meatball, I said they are yummy and I like that they are both beef and pork, it makes them more tasty.

  • There is NO pork in the meatballs, it's just beef (says he)
  • Errr yes there is, I've made very similar and I can tell there is pork in there
  • There is definitely NO pork in these meatballs
  • Please yourself, says me.
  • No, I want you to admit there's no pork in these meatballs
  • Just leave it, says I, it doesn't matter
  • NO. Just say to me there is no pork in the meatballs and we can forget it.
  • Shan't ! There is pork in them

This went on for about 10 minutes with me trying to change the subject but him going on and on and on, until....
he asked the waitress to bring out the cook/chef. Out he comes.
"Please tell my girlfriend (I'm not your GF you arse) what meat you have used in these meatballs" he asked the chef with a smirk on his face.

"Pork and beef, half and half" says the chef.

Well.... you could have cut the atmosphere with a knife. He was in such a bad mood and I couldn't wait to escape!

That was 100 % the norm in the 80's - the 2pm slow dance, during which the lights came on for home time, and everyone got a reality fright.

The Erection Section, they called it.

CloudBuster66 · 02/08/2025 16:58

The Erection Section, they called it.

😂I remember that. It was usually only one or two dances, then the lights went on and everybody started blinking and seeeing what they had been dancing with ( and also groped by) and quickly headed for the exit.😂

GentleJadeOP · 02/08/2025 17:25

He was very loud with sex, even when my children were in bed. Absolutely gave me the ick and I finished it but never had the heart to tell him why 🤣🤣🤣

Ohmygodthepain · 02/08/2025 13:56

I was going out with a man for about 8 months, really nice guy but he asked his mum to make a gp appointment for him to get a repeat prescription of his 'prescribed since birth' medication. His (retired) dad used to fill up his petrol tank when he stayed with them once or twice a week when he got all his washing done for him. He also took his car to the main dealer garage to get a bulb changed. Ick indeed.

The lightbulb alone would be enough to dry me up totally!

Airymama · 02/08/2025 09:55

The guy who said ‘yes’ with every thrust. So, if he was going quicker, it was ‘yesyesyesyes’. It was a ‘nononono’ for me!

OMG!!!! Vile 🤣🤮

You dislike a man for asking what you enjoy during sex? Men are specifically asked by women to communicate better and ask about sexual preferences, this man listened, and you disliked that?

Do you not see how the way he asked was a total turn off? Is that not completely obvious to you?

When he would say "who's the daddy?" just before ejaculating. He would also yell it on rollercoasters.

Did he also ejaculate on rollercoasters? I don't even know why I'm asking 😂

Spindrifts · 02/08/2025 17:53

When I was 18. A guy who took me out and said he had to go to the John and then came back and held my hand. Never again!

Bluegem7 · 02/08/2025 18:15

His dating profile said "I'm very choosy and selective about who I date". Sounds a real catch. He is 65 and doesn't drive (was a bit cagey about the reason). He talked non stop about his super talented daughter who sings at open mic nights in local pubs. He lives in a tatty sheltered housing bungalow. He never showed any interest in me or my life and would talk over me if I did try to get a word in.

SpicyMarge98 · 31/07/2025 21:24

Took me to meet his cousins and we had only been seeing each other a week or so they sat in a smelly living room with massive dogs everywhere and didn't didn't speak to me. Dumped

Went to a fun fair and he ate a burger from a burger van, not his fault it didn't agree with him but when we went back in the car he genuine nearly shat himself, did a fart the car smelt like a dead thing anf then had to run into a BP garage/service station thing for the loo. While I sat there in the stench omg dumped

What a pretty picture you do paint!

I went for a walk with one man and his dog. He stopped to pick up the dog's poo, tied the bag then held my hand with the hand he'd used. I know he didn't actually touch the poo but I still shudder at the memory.

*He grabbed me and started kissing me passionately! I was pushing him off.
*I really wasn't into him sexually, he knew it, but was trying to convince me that I was.
*We were rolling around on the floor, me laughing, him trying to seduce me. I said I wanted the coffee he promised me.

Sounds like he needed the Cup of Tea Consent rather than a latte and a lob on

morethanspice · 02/08/2025 18:55

Big clumsy trainers, poor hygiene, possessiveness, thick neck chains, big beards, hair that is combed up to a sort of peak on the top of the head, all ick for me

Hartleyhare1206 · 02/08/2025 18:57

Many moons ago when I was 18 I was seeing someone a bit older than me (mid 20’s) who thought he was the dogs bollocks because he had a Subaru Impreza. He insisted on going out in our nearest city centre which I objected to as I didn’t drive and it would be horrible trying to get home late at night etc.
No worries, he said. I’ll drive and so can pick you up and we can go together, then I’ll bring you home afterwards.
Great! I thought. Until we got to the end of the date and he tried to wheedle out of the lift home as apparently it was annoying that some strands of my long blonde hair had accidentally come out of my head and stuck to the upholstery of the passenger seat headrest. Apparently it was rather distressing as he was very proud of his car and had spent all day doing a home valet and now is basically ruined it.
Told him it was fine and I’d gladly make my own way home, but that he was; under no circumstances to ever contact me again as we were done!

Also dated another guy who referred to his cock and balls as “Arnie and the Twins”

Arnie - apparently after Arnold Schwarzenegger…..had no hesitation in telling him “hasta la vista, baby”…..

😂😂😂 thanks for this thread ladies. Best laugh I’ve had in ages 😂😂😂

He said what’s all this fuss about David Bowie’s death, he was just a pop star. Dumped immediately and despite requests to meet again, totally ignored

100% the correct response!

WhatcakeshalIIbaketoday · 02/08/2025 19:01

I just had to google “broke boyfriend hug” as I’ve never heard of it. Have men no pride these days?

ConstantlyTired312 · 02/08/2025 19:05

I was on an afternoon date in a pub (drinking coke as was picking DD up later) and we bumped into one of my work colleagues. After she left, the guy just kept going on about her being drunk, even when I was changing the subject. He went to kiss me at the end of the date and I nearly bent over double to get away from him 🤣 He still messaged for another date, clearly could not read body language.

We're in a small town and the next time I saw him was while waiting in the doctors surgery - very awkward while desperately ignoring him 🤣

speakout · 02/08/2025 19:07

My ex preferred cotton handkerchiefs to tissue- if we were out in public and blew his nose he would ask me to check his nose for any stray bits of snot.

TheIncredibleBookEatingManchot · 01/08/2025 16:54

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

I dated someone in his 50s who ALSO called himself a tired teddy, and lied to me about his age. He is older than he said he was.

I think we all dated the same guy. Midlands...?

The second ever man I did the deed with. Ten years older than me and I was fairly inexperienced. However, got the total ick when he warned me he had 'very violent orgasms so don't be scared'.
He sounded like an exploding steam train when he came and jerked about like he'd been tazered.

This had me howling 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
