| Topics of Conversation that End a Date Rather Quickly Posted: 2/26/2008 3:46:58 AM | My older sister once went out with a man, who, towards the end of the date, brought up the topic of kissing as he reached over her.
As it turns out, he was reaching for a pillow on the couch with which to smother her. She broke free, and locked herself in a bedroom, from which she called the police. Seemed like an innocent enough topic for conversation, but... | |

| Topics of Conversation that End a Date Rather Quickly Posted: 2/26/2008 2:30:22 PM | well in one fasion i dont think any topic is taboo for me on a date. I would be willing to talk about or listen to anything they would have to say. so no topic is taboo, as any topic can help me understand if that person and i would get along or be happy. While i wont talk abut my past relationships unless it is asked about i definltely wnna hear about my date's past ones. Though there are things that can be said that would not result in a second date. Those would be things that indicate to me that i would not be happy with that person in the long run or that they wont be happy with me in the long run. A lot of the topics suggested here are ones that has the potential to make me more interest instead of a turn off. Though i would have to say that extreme right political views, or if they fanatically believe in a religion that considers me and my religion as devil worship. also someone who wants to convert me to their faith though religion and spirituality are enjoyable topics if the other person is open minded.
Even topics like menstrual cycles, childbirth, medical issues in excruciating detail would not put me off, in fact topics like that would make me more interested.
I guess my main goal is to get to know the person better to see how compatible and in what ways we are. | |

I simply told he that I didnt want to hear anymore about his "wife" and that he needed therapy never met him I want to talk about me not her..................... | |

| Topics of Conversation that End a Date Rather Quickly Posted: 2/26/2008 7:40:56 PM | Hmmmm, the one about voices and guns cracked me up. I should definitely use something like that next time I am on a bad date and the guy is ranting on about his ex, spouting off right wing political claptrap or trying to convert me to his religion. "Hmm, maybe I should go home and clean my assault weapon collection." Would be a good way to scare him away--of course I don't have any guns but it would be funny to see his reaction after saying that LOL | |

| Topics of Conversation that End a Date Rather Quickly Posted: 2/28/2008 5:40:15 AM | I have a New One......he gets out the car and is dressed in gray sweats and overweight. No big deal....get inside the grill and I kept thinking this guy ain't right. And his eyes look kind of nuts. But the conversation is going good and I am telling myself maybe a new friend not boyfriend material but friend. He starts going on and on about his girlfriend of six years that he adored.. She broke it off with me. I said really? Why is that? He said I just got out of prison....Me: And what were you in prison for? I am starting to choke on my food a little. He said I sent some mail to someone that threatened them......Me: Choke choke.....really and how long did you stay.....Him: Only eighteen months.....Me: Whom did you send the mail to Him: Oh someone, but I have never smoked, drank or taken a drug.......Me: Really? OMG ........aren't you wonderful. He told me how he lived with her Mother now and how she was into SM...more than I wanted to know.......I told him he probably should seek a little bit of help.....I am no longer on his favorites lists lol...........

| Topics of Conversation that End a Date Rather Quickly Posted: 2/28/2008 11:43:21 AM | | I think when on a date you should talk about yourselves and not about the experiences of your previous 10 dates on plenty of fish, why is it that people insist on telling you all about what they did and how their date didnt look like their photos, i want to talk about us, yes we all ask if youve had any other dates, but we dont want all the details. | |

| Topics of Conversation that End a Date Rather Quickly Posted: 6/26/2008 6:29:29 AM | How about, I am not divorced like my profile says I am seperated. And I am seeing a psychologist because I still can't move on, and my wife and I had two threesomes and one foursome... And she cheated on me for 3 1/2 yrs with my coworker... All this within the first 1/2 hour. My response "see ya, don't want to be ya".....  | |

| Topics of Conversation that End a Date Rather Quickly Posted: 6/26/2008 6:41:04 AM | | To laugh at another persons despair/pain/hurt is cruel and deplorable. The guy may have had problems but he's got feeling just like yours and I'm sure he is sick of being single. Did the thought occur to you, or your officemates, to befriend this man and guide him in any direction that would help him improve himself? Some people just need a little encouragement and help. What a shame you couldn't take the high road on that one, maybe you will get another opportunity. | |

| Topics of Conversation that End a Date Rather Quickly Posted: 6/26/2008 2:30:09 PM | I got the best one. I paid a matchmaker about eight years ago to find me a mate. She set me up on the WORST dates of my life even though I took a battery of tests. Anyhoo, on my last date from her she sets me up with "Brian." The date goes well. He is polite, has a sense of humor, and a bit shy. I likee!! Here is where it goes bad:
"have you ever been a mistress?" Brian asks. "as opposed to a wife?" I politely ask, a bit confused. "no as in a dominitrix. You would be perfect," Brian smiles. "oh, no...I never thought of being one," I replied, looking for the exit.
Well, Brian spent the night trying to convince me of how he wanted me to be his dominant woman. He even had my personlity pegged. He knew I was an ENTJ, an 8. a red, and everything else. He was quite upset with me for refusing him.
So there is a bad topic to bring up. | |

My funniest was when he went on and on about his ex girl friend, he did message me again hoping that I would meet him again, no I didn't
I guess that goes to show you that not all people are as interesting on a date as they think they are, especially when someone finds talking about their ex to be more interesting than the one they are with! | |

| Topics of Conversation that End a Date Rather Quickly Posted: 6/26/2008 4:28:01 PM | A couple of my worst were one who wanted to talk about why it wasnt his fault why he flunked out of trucking school. And another who told me all about how he and his exwife named their aborted baby when they were teens (first date).
And... another who asked if I thought my sister would sleep with him, since she was the one he'd actually intended to ask out originally.
And the one who asked if i would marry him when his visa ran out.
Oh, and one who told me his exwife was also his stepsister.

I agree. I find it most enlightening. I always want to know what makes other people tick...and particularly in a potential dating situation.
I think the people who have a hard time hearing about past relationships are feeling insecure and intimidated. | |

| Topics of Conversation that End a Date Rather Quickly Posted: 6/27/2008 12:40:44 AM | | Know what , Artist? I think you've bought into all the Jewish propaganda about Hitler. Nothing wrong with Jewish ppl, btw...just think it's pure bovine scatology. That whole era was brought on more by bad economics at the time than anything else. Geez, do a little in-depth reading. | |
