The creepiest man you've ever dated...

Following from my thread, just to make me feel better that it's not only me who attracts these kind of people.

I seem to have had a run of them lately. Before the last one there was a university lecturer. I thought how nice he seemed until he sent me a picture of his wife's grave. I had no idea to respond to it!

The one who was obsessed with whether or not I'd opened my bowels, and used to time me in the toilet so he could catch me out for having a poo. He'd make excuses to use the bathroom after I'd been in there so he could sniff the air and work out whether or not I'd pooed. He wasn't hoping for anal or anything, but had a strange attitude to women, having a shit was unfeminine or something. I was a self conscious teenager at the time (he was older) and spent a lot of time constipated as a result.

Oh and another who cooked for me on the third date then got really arsey when I complimented his cooking because apparently it should have gone without saying that he was a good cook and I clearly must have been doubting his abilities. Needless to say that was the last date...

Not creepy, but ex bf who couldn't name a single member of my family and was extremely shocked I had a twin sibling, even though we'd been together a year and I'd spoken about them many times. He literally had not listened to a word I'd said for a whole year.

queenofthepirates · 08/03/2016 13:52

The one who told me, on the first date, he'd beaten up his ex wife.

prioritisingfootball · 08/03/2016 14:05

queen you've just reminded me of another one. The guy who told me on the first date that he couldn't drink too much because he had to be up early the next morning to go to community service which was his punishment for assaulting his mother's next door neighbour and smashing up his car.

NoMoreParades · 08/03/2016 14:13

Wow, just wow to some of these!!

Gilbert Shock

You win the thread.

GilbertBlytheWouldGetIt · 08/03/2016 14:23

God, really? The last time I spoke to a mutual friend, this guy had been married and divorced three times by his early 30's. His wives must have got fed up with holding it in.

PanGalaticGargleBlaster · 08/03/2016 14:32

Or they exploded!

I once saw some footage of what can only be described as 'fart porn', as the name suggests it featured women passing wind in the faces of men, no sex, just lots of farting. Its the most surreal thing I have seen. There is clearly a niche market for this.

GilbertBlytheWouldGetIt · 08/03/2016 14:40

that's the opposite of anal-retentive man. He once told me in all seriousness that he didn't think women should have bumholes. Or wear socks. The two were unrelated, I think.

allegretto · 08/03/2016 14:40

One who refused to use the bathroom in my shared flat (which was perfectly clean) so relieved himself in a bottle and took it home.

One whom I had known for a long time and decided we could be more than friends gave me a kiss and then started licking my feet - turned out he was only into feet.

Quityabitchen · 08/03/2016 16:28

I wonder if the Lego playing Yorkshireman was the same guy I dated with the Kylie poster on the wall?

And fucking hell, the poo policeman!! I'd have taken a shit and not flushed just to piss him off.

In my early 20s, I enjoyed a brief 2-3 year period of being extremely beautiful. Some genetic quirk and definitely short-lived. I had grown up looking like I'd fallen down the ugly tree and hit my face on every branch, so had developed no skills to put people off, had failed to learn that many people mistake friendliness for flirting, and was an ardent people-pleaser.
As such, I ended up with many offers of dates, whuch I unfortunately felt unable to refuse. Sometimes I ended up with lovers and boyfriends simply because I didn't want to upset them. There aas the man who was a competitive cyclist and waxed all body hair so he'd go faster. The man who hadn't washed his hair in years. The man who got in a fist fight on our first of quite a few dates.
All these men promised never ending love. I dumped all and many more in avoidant, wishy-washy ways.
Meanwhile, I lived in terror of speaking to anyone I actually fancied.

GrabbyRoslin · 08/03/2016 20:19

My exH was obsessed with my bowel movements too, Gilbert. He would ask about the texture of it, and ask to check if I'd wiped myself properly. I was a teenager and it was my first relationship so I didn't realise quite how weird it was for a while. He was also convinced that aliens walked among us and made me shower twice a day so I'd be clean for when they made themselves known. He also used to wank over Razzle in front of a candlelit altar, as I discovered when I can home from work early one day.

He was a right good catch Grin

prioritisingfootball · 08/03/2016 21:08

Gobbolino I reckon you're way more attractive than you give yourself credit for! I was a 'late bloomer'. I was bullied at school for being a 'goth', it was only when the boys I fancied at school hit their mid20s they decided the 'freak' might be a bit of kink and they all decided to show an interest! I wound them all up and then fucked them all off! I had great satisfaction doing it! WinkGrin
I hope you've got someone who appreciates you now. FlowersSmile (if not ill take you on a date!)

Mango5000 · 08/03/2016 22:06

The one who wouldn't drive me home from second date unless I gave him a blow job....
The one who stood me up & proudly introduced his gf when I bumped into him a few days later...
The one who left post-it's with hearts drawn on on my door & sent me a cake with my name on Hmm

I'm sure I have better than that but now can't think

Shock to the poo man though! He'd really hate me Grin

Lanark2 · 08/03/2016 22:20

Wow. I have a reverse experience, of inadvertently being creepy date.. I spent all day cooking the perfect beef stew, and was really into it, dumplings and everything.. When she arrived I realised I had completely forgot to get ready, was unshowered and pretty much undressed. She looked so beautiful, I just stared at her. She said 'I am your girlfriend right?' And I was so lost in thought I just whispered like a ghost.. 'I haven't shaved'. And carried on staring. She just turned round and fled, and never spoke to me again. I was so sad..Sad

Looked like Rik Mayall. Smelt strongly of manure.

About a month before I met my DH - we met as students - I went on a date with someone I had had a little drunken kiss with. He spent the whole evening talking about what a great actor Sean Bean is and kept saying that he had every DVD that Sean Bean was in. I figured he was clearly just a really big fan and said I liked him to and he was like "yeah but you haven't even seen all his movies - you aren't a real fan". He kept saying we could have a Sean-a-thin on our second date. Which never happened.

AnotherStitchInTime · 08/03/2016 22:39

The guy who spoke of having sex with an ex girlfriend in chickens blood from a chicken he decapitated.

Imnotaslimjim · 08/03/2016 22:47

I dated a bloke for 18 months as a teenager. On my 29th birthday he proposed and I accepted. The next day he told me everything was booked, the hall, the registry office, flowers, photographer. He'd even bought me a dress!! I left a week later.....

Imnotaslimjim · 08/03/2016 22:47

19th not 29th

HelenaDove · 08/03/2016 22:51
