So I was sitting with a gentleman friend watching some violent git on tv murder his ex, beat up his GF... and then the inexplicably forgiving GF crawls into bed and waits for him in a sexiful and alluring manner.

Clearly my response was 'WTF is wrong with her, this is sexist nonsense'...
to which gentleman friend replied to the effect of 'domestic violence is ok if it only happened once, they made up' etc.

No, it is not ok. Keeping well bloody clear of him now!

Any other big turn-off experiences?

A went several dates with a women and everything was going well, she was funny, intelligent, interesting and for a little while thought there was serious long term potential. We had sex for the first time and again everything was awesome right up till she reached out of bed to her hand bag and pulled out a pouch of tobacco and some rizzlas. I did not even know she smoked, she never smelt of smoke on all our dates, I was lying in bed watching her roll a ciggie, light up and start puffing away......in my bed!!! All attraction for her just fell away in those few moments.

This thread is bloody hilarious!!! Grin

Too many to mention but I really have been laughing out loud Grin

I am OLD but sadly age is no barrier to meeting knobheads on online dating.

A few stand out as quite memorable, first date ever I walked past him as he was about 6 inches shorter than he said he was and the photo must have been at least 10 years older, I thought I'd been stood up until he called out my name.

The one who had a goatee beard and a tight fitted shirt on turned out to have a long white beard and a red fleece on and looked like Father Christmas (why do people put such old photos online?)

The scariest one was one who was VERY keen on me, but I was in another country at the time, on his photo he was pictured on a Harley so I knew he was into motorbikes and he bigged himself up by telling me he had over 50 bikes and was loaded and owned lots of properties. So anyway we arranged to meet when I got back in a mutual place. When I got there I was shocked to see he looked like a Hell's Angel biker complete with all the gear and proceeded to tell me about the pawn shop he owned and how one of his female staff was called "The Mattress" Confused and how he hung around at Kings Cross (notorious red light district in Sydney) and just the way he spoke about life in general, I've never been so scared in my life. The date lasted 50 minutes. When I made my excuses to leave he said "So we're not going to get married then?"

Really good looking guy we're chatting away nicely, he sends me a photo of his new grand-daughter, then later that night completely out of the blue he sends me a photo of his dick so there are the two photos sitting together on Whatsapp, I asked him why he sent it he said it was so I cold see "the whole package".

Man who after 2nd date told me he must have sex twice a day, no excuses.

Man who got all huffy because I wouldn't hold hands with him on the first date after he'd "wasted his money on a cup of tea and a sandwich for me when he could have spent his time with his friends".

When he was talking about how he didn't agree with adoption by couples of the same sex and then almost immediately afterwards said "and don't even get me started on the Ched Evans witch hunt"

I don't know how he made that leap and I didn't hang around to find out,

Long time ago. Stayed with BF overnight when his parents had been away on holiday. He said we could use their bedroom. I thought he had prepared clean bedsheets until I found his father's pants under the duvet.

these are brilliant! I was howling at the 10p between the arse cheeks Grin

I could fill a thread with horrors, but it would set my therapy back by years, so I'll stick to just one.

I was a (young) 19 year old at uni and I somehow got myself entangled with a man in his mid thirties. Brian was very keen on me, and his special way of letting me know was by a special code for his special lady.

'8-3-1', he would say, gazing into my eyes, '8-3-1'.

"That's nice" I would reply.

he would send me cards with '8-3-1' and nothing else written in them. Every phone call ended with '8-3-1'. had texting been invented in those benighted times, no doubt he would have texted me '8-3-1' as many times a day as his obsessive stalky little fingers could manage.

What does '8-3-1' mean, you ask?

Eight letters, three words, one meaning. I Love You.

So, so corny!! Why did it take me a year to dump him? Bleeeeeeeeuuuurfffhhhh!

My friend set me up with a guy I'd really like I was 17 he was 20. He was lovely, was in the army so we would meet up when he was off after a while we booked a hotel room and omg he had the smallest penis I've ever seen he was 3 inches (max) and very slim and me been 17 didn't think I could run away! I broke it off and then a few weeks later he called saying he had met a girl at a club they went down a side street and she had laughted at his penis and walked away and was it really that small? I didn't have the heart to break his heart and said it was only a little smaller than average
