Dates from Hell

I've never done OLD but I had the misfortune to think I had connected with someone through (virtual) work last year and he behaved very badly.

This post is essentially copied from another thread, but it made me think about all the weirdos one meets on dates. When I was younger, I would meet lots of frogs. These include:

One turning up late repeatedly and so I went home. He phoned me in a fury blaming me for going home, saying "I was taken short".

Another one "Can I kiss you". "Do you usually go out with men?" It was like Adrian Mole.

Giving another chance to a guy who told me on Date 3 that he had been in a young offender's institution for a fight at a football match (think now there was more to it than that). He turned up with a friend and his girlfriend who was on her first date with the friend. We saw the two guys going through pockets of jackets hung up. The other girl and I went to the toilet and escaped and never saw them again.

Going on a date with a guy I met through work when I had a student job, conversation took a smutty turn I wouldn't join in with and he parked up on the way home expecting some action. Luckily he didn't push it, drove me home when I asked him to and had the cheek to say "Can I see you again on Wednesday?"

A guy turning up for first date with a box full of chocolates, wine and bath bombs. Found out he had CCJs and had headbutted his ex.

I used to blame myself for attracting these people because I thought there was something about me that sent out the wrong sort of message to them. Now I just think these chumps are everywhere. I met all of these in real life.

Any more?

He asked me to stay over on second date. Next morning said I cant believe you brought lingerie, you never came off as a whore.

A few years ago I went on a date with a guy, wearing a sleeveless little black dress.
I was very slim back then and convinced that I looked good but he told me I should work on my upper arms because they were a bit too chubby and could he take me home to fuck me doggy style (his words) because I had a fat ass according to him but luckily for me, he was really into that.
