Cringeworthyness of ex partners....

[Only1scoop]

Had a few chuckles today ....met girls for lunch....been friends years and remember many of each others exes....

One friend recalled an ex who always used to ask for his pasta to be served 'El dente' even in fine Italian restaurants....he was no foodie and she used to 'cringe in her seat'

One of my exes used to ask for 'lattice fries' ....the L at start of word used to be drawn out....I used to twitch....I hated it so much.... he would ask this in any pub....restaurant.

Another ex of mine used to say he was going for a 'wee wee' and called his stomach his 'tummy'

He didn't last long really....

Just fun.... anyone got any others sayings that spring to mind on the 'cringeworthy meter'

Ex is an ex for a reason

Lllllatice fries anyone

[Only1scoop]

I'm going to run out of cringe icons after reading all of these....

I've been chuckling all night with plenty of thrown in....

[Floop]

[Only1scoop]

He lived in Southend on sea! The other side of the car park of TOTs!

[Primadonnagirl]

He did invite me to shake hands with Percy !! and tell me Percy was really, really shy..... < punches self on face>

[Only1scoop]

Eat ....no....no stop it

[sunflower49]

prima ! I was joking! Unfortunately I am supposing that you are not!

[sunflower49]

Hearing grown men saying 'Tummy'. There is something very, fundamentally wrong with that isn't there.

[Primadonnagirl]

Sadly no I am not joking!!!I think I need to get me some therapy now....!

[Only1scoop]

Sun....in the end it literally used to make my skin crawl....it was the pathetic voice he used....

Nearly as bad as lattice fry man ....

[Only1scoop]

Prima....better book us a group session

[WeevilKnievel]

Loving these.

I had a second date planned to go to the park. An hour before, he phones me to ask what I'm planning to wear on the date, a bit amazed I reply, jeans?!
When he arrived to pick me up a bit later he was wearing head to toe snow-washed denim with multiple rips in the ( v tight) jeans, crystal studded jacket and matching baseball cap.
I was too polite to decline the date but walked round Hyde park with my head down.

• There were no more dates...

[Only1scoop]

Weevil....that is hilarious....

Snow washed denim head to toe

[WeevilKnievel]

Yes, it was horrific and very 'thought out'

[TooOldForGlitter]

Eat I once walked in on an ex doing that EXACT thing with my straighteners

[EBearhug]

This thread has made me realise that I've mostly been out with pretty normal, nice blokes.

Which makes me wonder if I'm the weird one they all cringed about...

[Only1scoop]

Nooooo....I'm going to google it....is it something 'they' do whilst abluting

[Squeakyheart]

I met a guy that I had had a massive crush on for a date and it was going ok but towards the end he wiped his nose on his sleeve and he was wearing a lime green chenille jumper which just seemed to make it even more gross!

[JulietBravoJuliet]

I dated a bloke, briefly, who was just the most controlling bloke I've ever met. He would tell me how to parent my child (he had no kids himself), rang me at work one day three times to remind me to cut my lawn as it was looking scruffy, insisted on driving to me when I broke down on the way to our second date, then proceeded to tell anyone that would listen how I rang him for help (I didn't, just thought it was polite to let him know I wouldn't make it!) and he took control of the situation and rescued me! His favourite phrases were "Watch how I handle this" and "I'll educate you on something here"!!

Also dated an older guy in my teens who was Elvis obsessed and used to Bryl cream his hair like the King!

I'm happily single and have definitely learnt from my previous mistakes!!

'Watch how I handle this'

[MarkWrightsLonelyBraincell]

Standing with his hands clasped to his chest, head coyly tilted, asking me in a baby voice "Do you want to play Hun?" when he fancied a shag.
I was young, so was he, but despite that I knew that he was fucking weird.
