What's your worst ever date...?

[Fozziebearmum]

I once went on an internet date...we'd been chatting for a week or two online and he seemed normal. But after 5 MINS of meeting, he went to the toilet and returned to say...

• he really liked me had just called his friends to tell them and I could meet them next time
• that he needed to be straight with me that he was having a back operation (didn't sound like a big deal so had no idea why he was even telling me)

And... It later became apparent he didn't have a BA which was listed on his profile. He'd never been to uni, but had in fact been single for a while and thought that that's what the online question had meant when asked if he has a Bachelor of Arts....

There must be better ones out there than this though!

One memorable date told me that he didn't think he'd be able to tolerate my accent!

Seems not ( and I certainly wasn't a 'sport' in his eyes it seemed for refusing his kind offer ..)
Btw it was only her second date with this total charmer .. she was quite enamoured of him..but strangely the relationship didn't last .

Internet dating:
Man 1: gorgeous,funny,intelligent. Wonderful date. Total gent. End of the night "listen I'm not at all interested in going out with you but I would love a fuck tonight"
I declined.

Man 2: rubbish date. Horrid person. He leaned in for a kiss and pinched my nipple! Really hard!
I ran.

Man 3: left me sat at the table and disappeared for 40 mins. I was too embarrassed to leave. He returned. Announced he wasn't interested but asked if I would like to suck him.off.
I declined.

Not an actual date but when I was Internet dating many years ago I got a message from someone that I didn't like the look if and lived at the other end of the country so ever polite I replied saying thanks for the message but I was looking for someone closer to home. I got a message back saying I should agree to meet him and he detailed how he decided our relationship would progress with a time line of when he would propose, when we would get married and have kids etc. I again replied politely saying no thanks and got a rant back saying all sorts of horrible things. He also then blocked me so I couldn't reply to his nastiness!

Laregina the comment about him not being allowed back made me wonder if he's HIV+.

littlebaby I wondered that too, which is slightly alarming for any dates he may have had since that were more 'successful' than ours - I hope he was a bit happier to talk about his 'health issues' in that scenario ....

I was Internet dating for a while and was speaking to a nice enough guy. I agreed to meet him for a few drinks and he said he would pick me up about 7. I got myself ready and when he turned up he got out the car, introduced himself and I got in, so far so good. He started to drive out of town and I was a bit . I asked where we were going, he pulled over in a lay by about 1 mile out of town and proceeded to tell me how disappointed he was that I didn't tell him I was fat and that he was really angry with me because I had wasted his time.

I was quite scared and apologised but pointed out that it was very clear by my pictures that I was fat and that I never once said otherwise. I asked him to drop me back in town but he refused, asked me to get out the car and he drove away! I had to walk the mile back to town in the pouring rain and pitch black was awful.

Just as I got back home I got a text from him saying he was still in the area and if I wanted to make it up to him for wasting his time, he was still in the area and would let me - yes, let me - give him head. I can't repeat what I replied but thankfully I never heard from him again

My mates still bring this up 5 years later.

laregina It is possible, but there are a lot of medical conditions you're not allowed to settle in Australia with. Basically anything they deem will be of 'unreasonable cost' to the public purse. (I'm Australian & think these rules are nasty and discriminatory, but I digress...)

On line dating site, chatting for a while and agreed to meet up for a drink. I drove to the pub that he suggested, when I walked in he was serving behind the bar. He asked me what I wanted to drink, served me, then asked for the money.

He then asked if I wanted to see the kitchen, I thought WTF but went for a look anyway. He then proceeded to grab my boob and asked me if I could manage the kitchen on my own (as in work there!) I declened and left. Later that day he emailed me to say I hadn't got the job!

30seconds I wonder if we dated the same guy! He didn't like me because I was fat but must have felt like he was doing me a favour by offering his nob on a platter.

Venus, what a horrible wankstain of a man! He is right at the top of the list of dates from this thread I really, really hope have had their comeuppance.

The guy who spent the whole date bitching about his ex, the. Tried to pull the 'I forgot my wallet' stunt with a grin. I paid for my half and left.

Long time ago this........

Went out with a friend and got chatting to a chap who asked me out for a date for the following week.

I turned up for said date, but he didn't!

Two weeks later me and friend are out again when I spotted this chap on the far side of the room, standing with a tall, blonde haired woman. On seeing me, he turned his back and continued chatting to her.

I was so annoyed at his rudeness I went over, said hello to the tall, blonde woman, and advised her not to bother making a date with this man, as he had a habit of not turning up.

' That's interesting ' said she.......' I'm his wife ' !

OUCH!!!!!

Cue him slowly backing off with a look of fear in his eyes, as we both turned to look at him.........

What I'm amazed at, is how many men seem to think that even if the date went terribly, something's going to happen, sex wise.

Date 1 - I'd just gone through a horrible break up, and thought I'd get back "out there" so signed up to a dating website. Chatted to this guy online, he seemed nice, so we agreed to go on a nice date (art gallery and afternoon tea). He turned up. He was CLEARLY on the rebound (but so I was I so I didn't hold it against him). He had green teeth, as in, like 50% of his teeth were green and a bit rotten. He then told me about how he'd had really bad gastroentiritis at one stage (after i'd joked about going on holiday and gaining a ton of weight from eating so much as the food was really good), and he'd lost a lot of weight. And, one time when out for dinner with friends, he threw up on the table. This was about an hour into the date. I then hurried it along and he walked me to the tube station, and leaned in for a kiss. I literally RAN away from him.

Date 2 - another guy. First date he was okay. Second date we go for drinks and he then said "let's just go back to your place and make out like weasels". I politely declined.

Thank freaking GOODNESS I met DH.

I was 20 and flat sharing in London. I had been writing computers were the size of houses back in those days to a boy I had met at school and who was a very junior officer in the army - friendly stuff rather than anything romantic in my head anyway. He invited me out for a date when he was on leave. He arrived with a silver topped cane and an "affected" limp and was wearing a monocle and smoking a pipe (he was 21 FFS). He took me to a vair posh silver service restaurant where we were the only customers - all very uncomfortable. He then got the right hump because he was expecting to share my bed and I made him sleep on the sofa. I still cringe at the memory.

On the internet dating, there was this Jezebel article about some guy who posed as a woman on an online dating website, and only managed to survive for two hours.

I managed 3 dates after meeting guys online...

Man 1: American bloke. He seemed nice and we got along. He was desperate for a 2nd date, but I ended up with the flu and didn't want to leave the house. He texted me to tell me he missed me intensely. INTENSELY. And this was just the beginning of various declarations of love he had for me. Needless to say, date 2 didn't happen.

Man 2: He told me he was an architect. After dinner we strolled through the city and he pointed out his office and various buildings he had worked on. I even had a 2nd date with him and we went to the cinema. Every time there was a sex scene he grabbed my hand and squeezed it. And then he admitted he actually didn't have a job because he'd been made redundant 6 months before. He couldn't see the issue I had... Erm last week you pointed to a building and outright lied to me and said that is my office?!

What's worse.. I actually had to break up with this men. I had to have lengthy conversations and dump them. For weeks they tried to change my mind!

Man 3: I ended up marrying him and we are now expecting our first child. They aren't all unhinged!

I once was asked out to dinner by someone who I knew through work, and who seemed normal.

I arrived at the restaurant exactly on time to find that not only was he already there, he had already ordered his own meal, it had arrived and he was eating it.

very odd.

Oh- just recalled-he also talked only about himself except for saying to me 'I bet you are a wildcat in the sack'.

weird. he was educated, good job. What possesses someone to behave like that?

One of my dates said he'd like to take me to a really nice restaurant he went to. His treat. Great, thought me so I got the glad rags on.

He picked me up and took me to Sainsburys cafe, after the date he pointed me in the direction of the train station to get home. While he drove off.

This wasn't a date but humerous behaviour

I was asked out by a bloke at work who I couldn't fancy less who was a little strange but nice so I always chatted to him to be friendly. The mistake with being friendly to people like him is he wasn't used to it and fell for me
I said no and he went a bit wappy. He looked miserable and didn't speak to me until that night where I received a message saying I am "like a polar bear" in that I look all cute and cuddly from a far, but when you get up close I maul you!!!!

He then contacted me on another number pretending to be his "female friend" trying to win me round by telling me he had written a love song about me. Until I straight out said I know it's you and he admitted it oh the shame...

A bloke's perspective, not a horror date, but met a gal from the office in the nearby pub; tbf I was a bit late, 10 mins or so. Misjudged the distance. Anyway, throughout the evening's pleasant chat, just about every subject we touched on, she had had a boyfriend or shag related to it. Of course, I tried to be not bothered, and in a way I wasn't - she's not gonna be a virgin ffs is she - but it was a bit unnerving. Like, was I meant to be jealous? Or was it some truth session, where I am meant to mention my past shags too? Or was it one for the AIBU thread (not that it existed back then, this was the mid 90s).

I've got two. First guy I met outside a local park ( Blind date) he looked me up and down and said " yeah, you'll do, wanna go in the park and shag?" Taken aback I stammered that perhaps we should get to know each other a bit first, and maybe have a drink in the pub next door. He shook his head. " nah. I'm driving and I once went out and didn't drink, it was a shit night, and I promised myself there and then I'd never set foot in a pub again unless I was going to get wasted"

I beat a hasty retreat, and returned home to an answer phone message saying he was still up for a shag.

Contestant number two, also a blind date, sported a Mohican, chains and many piercings, which was fine, but he insisted on calling me luscious all evening and that creeped me out, so eventually I asked if he could please stop. He went ballistic, yelling that he was the romantic type and would write love poems and songs for his girlfriends but now that would never happen.

Ought to have known he was nuts though. His dating profile was a long list of places liked to shop, with highlights including the local morrisons.

I met a guy at a party. We snogged drunkenly and arranged to meet the following week. I gave him my number, he didn't give me mine.

A few days later, he left me a message on my answer phone. He basically told me to meet him at a rather naff restaurant on the Wednesday. However, he didn't leave his number so he was clearly just assuming I would available and show up which, being a mug I did.

Well, he had warned me he might be late but he arrived over an hour late. I waited, like a fool, until he turned up. He finally arrived with no apology or explanation.

The evening went downhill from there. He was rude to the waiter and bragged to me about his stupid fucking job and how much he earned. He went on to bore me senseless about his 'big holiday' - white water rafting in the US. Big deal.

Of course, being a complete slut, I let him come back to my place. We had the worst shag ever. He couldn't keep it up. In the end, I gave up. I had to fly to a wedding in Holland the next morning and he was still asleep. I was in a rush and just left him lying there.

When I returned the following evening, he was gone without a trace. No message, nothing. Never heard from him again.

Some days later, his brother (who held the party I originally met this guy at) invited me to his flat to talk about a 'business venture'. It turned out to be pyramid scheme type crap. I nodded and smiled, but left asap.

I wondered, later, whether the guy had only gone out with me to provide a future 'client' for his brother? Hmmm.

Venus - what a disgusting 'man'. Sounds like he deliberately targets women to belittle and bully them. Nice.

Venus :( What a complete and total cunt!

Internet dating seems to get the most horror stories, but tbf everyone I've met there has been nice, even if there's been no chemistry.
