i don't know how many more experiences will be shared but I'm hoping to continue the thread because thread number one has given me so so so many laughs.
I still have a lot of ick stories to share so without further ado..

Went on a date and the guy had what I can only describe as white string on his lips. I kept licking my lips in the hope he'd twig but to no avail I ended up saying DUDE you have a massive white string when you talk can you wipe it off.

didn't go down well and didn't see him again.

I had a ONS with a work colleague when I was 17 from a supermarket Saturday job. He kept referring to his.. Achem.. package as THE BIG DADDY.
it wasn't. That was a humbling experience.

please share yours!

(also it's same OP I've just got a shiny new username)

Guy I was dating seemed ok, met up a few times, he was sweet, thoughtful, intelligent and clearly interested. So we booked a weekend away and would be DTD for the first time. We arrived in our room and literally the first thing he said to me was “Can you shave my back please?” He was COVERED in hair. Instant ick and nearly vom.

There wasn’t a first time.

Shave my back?????? 😂

What a prince.

I guess he was hair today and gone tomorrow.....

I once went on a few dates with a chap and ended up back at his

Hanging off the top of the wardrobe was a grinning teddy-dog

I got full verse and chapter about how he'd won it for his ex on one of those grabber machines at the seaside but when they'd broken up,she'd packed his stuff and this was in the black bag,which in turn took front and centre on his wardrobe

I can cope with the ex but I couldnt cope with that evil looking teddy-dog sat grinning and judging me while we did the deed

I tried to make my excuses and he plucked it of the wardrobe and using it as a prop said 'bye bye then phoebe,see you soon' (as if it was talking to me instead of himself) and he made it 'wave' at me

I do this. As do millions of Japanese. In fact you can get special socks called Tabi socks.

I like the shoes. Especially the ballet flats.😁

In my 'bad boy' phase I dated real hard man. Very colourful past......

I was surprised to see a shelf of stuffed bears in his room. I assumed they belonged to his daughter but no they were his.

I didn't like it when they made eye contact when we were shagging😳

It was bad enough it grinned at me

I wasn't making eye contact with it too!

Oddly,he was a tough bloke who worked in a traditionally male job

OneAmusedShark · 06/08/2025 16:29

When DC were smaller, DH developed an annoying habit of calling me “Mummy” all the time, even when they weren’t around.

I quickly nipped that one in the bud as it made my skin crawl.

Perhaps it was a sneak peek into the future. Turned out he was a risk taker. Always wanting to do it somewhere we'd get caught. It got very tedious. He was obsessed with sex.

With hindsight maybe he thought he'd ease me into it with a non sentient audience. Boiled frog style (the strategy, not the actual shagging style😂)

ReceiveMyPurpleParsnip · 06/08/2025 16:50

He slowly licked his top lip, from one side to the other, holding eye contact the entire time.
He clearly thought this would be incredibly seductive.
It was not.

I was dying to laugh but pretended to be asleep. What a fuck wit. He's also flip flop man from an earlier post.

He thought that they could do c-sections with key hole surgery now. I said I was fairly sure they still have to cut a hole big enough to get the baby out. He was genuinely shocked.

FFS are these men abandoned in the woods at birth and raised by wolves or something?

CircularMotionDementedThrustingGuy · 05/08/2025 21:16

NOOOOOOO did this actually happen!!

my Christ imagine trying to explain that to your date I am picturing this on the local Facebook page

'woman rescued by the fire and rescue service, rumours say she shit herself, we have contacted her for comment.'

Yes, it really happened. And this is by far the best report on it. The line "Mr Smith say im no get choice but to call fire service make dem help remove di girl, along with her poo-poo" is just wonderful. Made me want to learn pidgin! www.bbc.com/pidgin/tori-41171196

I forgot about the bloke I'd been seeing on a casual basis

The kids where at their grandparents for the night so he'd stayed over

The following morning,I went for a shower

The bathroom was a shower over the bath,the sink next to the shower and the loo at the end of the bath

He came in,pulled his pants down and had the biggest shit (complete with the most god awful smell) in front of me-the way the shower curtain hung meant I couldn't even pull it around to block the sight of him

He wiped his arse,checked the paper,flushed and walked out without washing his hands

I get he had to shit but why couldn't he have waited until I'd got out and at least opened a window?

I declined his offer of making me a cup of tea and threw him out

He was amazed when I sent a text saying it was all over and he stalked me for months after

GirlPolo · 06/08/2025 21:33

Oh I forgot - another date referred to sex as ‘going to pound town’.

Dumped.

A guy I used to see would suck his thumb after sex. 😂 Needless to say, the relationship didn't last long Blush

There is no suitable emoji for this. I mean, that’s just … no. I almost feel a bit sorry for this person. 99.95% of sexual partners would run like the wind after seeing that behaviour.

Some things are best left unsaid.....

To my shame I still snogged him at the end if the night. He pressed his forehead against mine for the whole snog. Must be that neanderthal brow ridge making that anatomically possible. 🤔

I'd kick the dirty bastard into the street before the first curl hit the water.

I was too stunned
Nobody (bar the kids when they where small) had ever shat in front of me before
It was awful-i really felt sick
He could have waited two minutes until I'd got out
It still makes me heave to this day

I bet you were stunned. Yes, of course he could have waited. Unless he had diarrhoea that sprung up out of nowhere he didn't need to use the toilet at that exact time. This behaviour seems to be more than just a shit that can't wait. It's almost like marking their territory somehow. I bet he wouldn't do it to his mother...

My ex did that when I was in the bath. He brought a magazine in too. He was actually downstairs at the time and we had a downstairs loo so he definitely did it to piss me off.
