My date ate his food like a snake

Ok I recently signed up to bumble last week and got chatting to a guy on there.. fast forward to yesterday and we meet at a local restaurant/pub..

He was shorter than the "5'11" he mentioned in his bio..

His face looked 10 years older and be wore baggy jeans

When we ordered food he ate like a snake .. he clicked his jaw and opened his mouth really wide to take a bite .

I feel really terrible I'm looking for an excuse to block him and move on

You don't need an excuse.

'Thanks for a pleasant evening but I don't think we're the right fit. Good luck with your search. Cheers, NicoleNumbers' snd block.

WaveyHair · 14/09/2022 11:51

An excuse is not needed but do nip it in the bud early (like now). Just back away gently with everyone's pride left in tact.

'Thanks for a lovely evening but it feels like we are not a great match. Hope you find what you are looking for, all the best. Bye'

that's hilarious but yeah, you can not date someone for whatever reason you want. Hssssssssss just not your type I guess

Shuggz · 14/09/2022 11:59

This reminds me of someone I went on a date with in the past :D
Did he wear a supersized ugly shirt too?

Mumofnarnia · 14/09/2022 12:10

I swear this is the same guy I dated last year lol. He also said he was 5’11 but appeared shorter, turned up in baggy jeans and ate like a snake!

Ha ha, my friend went out on a first date and the guy disappeared to the toilets . Ten minutes later he was calling the bar man for toilet paper in front of her and the rest of the pub! Needless to say she didn’t see him again 😂

TheLoupGarou · 14/09/2022 13:12

Hmmm. Maybe he is a snake! 😮

OutwiththeOutCrowd · 14/09/2022 13:28

One woman's snake is another woman's snookie-wookie - have mercy on him and set him free so that he can find that woman.

You just didn't click ... well, his jaw did but that's not enough.

They live amongst us.

Twiglets1 · 14/09/2022 13:52

Surely you already have your excuse? He eats like a snake ffs

Bestcatmum · 14/09/2022 13:52

Oh God no, I'd have been off like a rocket at that point and left him to his meal.
I never ever go for meals on a date, just drinks, non alcoholic, or coffee, then if they are horrendous I can bugger off without wasting any money.

CaptainCorellisBagpipes · 14/09/2022 13:53

Maybe OP for your next date don't go for a meal. That way you won't have to watch your date eating like a snake, pig, or any other animal ! 😌

Allmyarseandpeggymartin · 14/09/2022 13:55

I thought you were going to say he had a long tongue - I was going to say imagine what the oral sex will be like!

BadNomad · 14/09/2022 14:09

It must be so hard to find someone when you look like an oil painting. Good luck, OP.

blisstwins · 14/09/2022 14:32

My ex-husband ate like this and it made me sick. He could eat a sandwich in two bites. It looked like he unhinged his jaws and shoved in whatever it was. I don't even get the joy in that. Don't blame you for not wanting a second date.

I feel a little bad for the bathroom guy though. Embarrassing, but what was he to do?

Not surprised you’re a bit rattled. You don’t have to tell him the full scale of the problem though. Just let him know your attraction has tailed off and then slither away quietly. 🐍

I think you've encountered one of the lizard people, OP. 😃
