Hmmmm...bad dates? OK- here goes (in no particular order)

Gal would not share picture but assured me that she worked at the Playboy Club at 18. I meet her, and she looks like Homer Simpson with a wig. She also brings her bratty 12 year old daughter, AND gangster-looking male friend (tattoos included) to the meeting. I feed them all! The ganster and her drag off the same cigarette during the meal, and I find out that he lives with them. Ugh.

I date a spooky little thing who is sooooooo selfish it would make your head spin. I could write chapters, but this will suffice: She calls and asks me to meet her at her house...I drive 1 HOUR to see her, and she is gone. I sit on her porch for TWO HOURS in the winter waiting. She never shows, never apologizes...

ONE gal asked me to pay her rent on THE FIRST DATE. Nice....

ONE gal who told me she was divorced was not; her husband came up to me during a dinner date and punched me in the face. Fun...

ONe date was seriously mentally ill; cute as a button but looney as a fruitcake. She started crying after taking off her clothes....

One date was a cokehead. She should have told me, but I figured it out after her dealers threatened to kill me (after robbing me)....

OH! and then there is the lady who I dated a while, and we decided to be intimate...RIGHT BEFORE we're to do the deed, she tells me her EX is an IV drug user....WHAT?!?!?! Geez, THAT killed the mood...and, NO, we didn't do it!

I could go on and on....

Wow, what a wuss that guy was. I have had a couple "interesting" encounters with online dating.
First one was a meet over a game of pool and some drinks. She said she was 5' and of average build, no picture posted. I met her at the billiards room and was shocked to see a woman that weighed more than I do and I'm 6', 210lbs!! It was so bad, she had great difficulty bending over in her skintight jeans to even attempt a shot. Was a complete gentleman, had a drink with her, attempted to play some pool and we went our seperate ways. ummm, no second date was in the future.
Second one almost killed me... I met this woman for a coffee and waited for her in the Tim Hortons parking lot. She had also described herself as fit and trim, her pic was from shoulders up. She rolls out of her van and she is dressed head to toe in black spandex and she was lets say not slim and trim, had her trunk fully packed, saddle bags included. Well after coffee, she wanted to go hit some golf balls, was a driving range across the street, so I met her over at the range. She pulls out her golf bag, half the clubs are upside down in the bag, she dumps the bag out right infront of the booth, dinky toys, parts off of a door come out of the bag...OHHH..its not over yet..... she tees it up, hits it lefty...she swings, hits it off the toe of the club and misses my head by about an inch!!! I decided to take a BIG step back and she proceeded to hit every ball the same way Was glad to get away from that one with my life!!!

Oh yeah, I remember one night during which I thought that doing laundry would have been more exciting!! One guy called his body "athletic" in the profile, and when I met him I could not believe my eyes!! He was quite overweight, and to make it worse, he had on a shirt that was too small--the buttons looked like they could pop out and I could see his white undershirt!! Not a very good first impression to begin with, but the worst part was that he did not tell the truth about his body shape prior to meeting. Needless to say I never saw that man again!!

I appreciate it when people are truthful!!

well I cant top it but all I can say is Ive been dating this one guy for six months , we had 4 dates , two coffee dates , one lunch , the we went out for the big date ,

I knew what he looked like , didnt lie in his profile etc,

so Im really confused now ????

we went out had a great time , at the end we kissed , he kissed me first ! then I hugged him to go and he kissed me a little more romanticly ? one week later he sends me and email


quote :
It was a nice kiss and I had a good time that evening, but and this is a big BUT and I feel like a jerk for having to tell you this, I don't think I want to get into a serious relationship or maybe even any relationship at this point. I guess that's one of the reasons I removed my profile from POF. I think you're a fun and very nice person but I'm afraid I'm going to have to give you the "I just want to be friends" line. I honestly do hope you keep in touch though.



now why am I confused???????? so I guess I can call it a good date that went bad ,
makes you wanna give up somtimes ???
maybe its true ? the ones father away might be the better catch??????cause the ones here sure do suck!!!!!!!!!

Well I have had yet another bad first meeting, like that is a surprise.....LOL

We agreed to meet a Mc Donalds for breakfast, he picked the time. He had to work that day so I figured if it was going bad no problem, he had to go anyways.

Well, he was suposed to call me when he was on his way, since he had the longer drive. I finally called him 1/2 after I had expected his call. He tells me he is running late but still wants to meet, even if it's just for coffee. He also told me he had to go to work earlier than he had first thought. I asked if he wanted to reschedule and meet another time and he said no he was on his way. Well I get to McD's thinking he would be there in a few min. Still I don't see him, I call and he says the traffic was bad but he is on his way. Then he calls and says he couldn't find parking and would I meet him in the parking lot at Arby's. I get over there, reconize his car for one that had just driven by me and past an empty parking space. He gets out shakes my hand and says he is sorry he is late, but he has to head to work now.

so I drove 15 min and he drove 45 min to say "hi", "bye" and then he emails me saying he couldn't get a good look at my butt on such a short meeting .

No second meeting there.

Long story short, this young lady made me wait nearly 15 freakin mins then she comes out with this soaking wet nappy hair (just got out of the shower) and obviously put no effort into what she was gonna wear out on the town (torn jeans, worn out shirt that was about 2 sizes too small) and not to be an ass or anything but I knew I shouldn't have trusted a pic where she's sitting in a corner about 30 feet away from the camera.

I was on a first date and as a conversation starter, I suppose, she asked if I would like to feel her shunt. And no, it's not a typo. There was no second date.

A woman contacted me through POF with an intelligent and funny response to my profile. I checked out her profile and she seemed wonderful: attractive, smart, fit and funny. We started the "email" back and forth thing and each time it seemed to get better and better. We decided to meet for coffee and when I saw her, she was exactly like her photos. Very attractive and well dressed. So I'm thinking, "Hey, this could be the start of something good."

The problem started as soon as I said "Hello." She responded with a "Hello", then nothing. Every attempt to start a conversation on my part ended in silence from her. I really tried to get a conversation going, but nothing... she just stared at me and her coffee cup. Now I'm thinking, "This woman is totally not into me," so we finished our coffee, said good night, and went our separate ways.

When I got home there was this beautiful email from her saying how much she enjoyed our date, that she thought I was someone she would like to get to know better, and did I want to go out for dinner on the weekend? I figured maybe she was shy or nervous and that's why she was so quiet over coffee, so I email her back and said sure.

The weekend rolls around and I meet her outside the restaurant. Again, she is dressed fine and she looks stunning. And again, she has nothing to say. All through dinner, as I attempt to get a conversation going, she is either staring at me or her food. I try humour. I ask her questions. I attempt to get her to expand on things she has written in her emails. All I get are one or two word replies.

Dinner ends and then she strings together the most words I have ever heard her speak: "Do you want to go for a walk?" Thinking that maybe she'll losen up a bit outdoors, I agree and we stroll the streets downtown. She takes the initiative to hold my hand but again, she doesn't speak. She's either looking at me or the sidewalk. When the walk is done, she takes the initative to kiss me, we say good night, and go our separate ways again.

Next morning... you guessed it, another long email about how great our date was, how she was thrilled to hold my hand and kiss me goodnight, how she knew we'd only dated twice but she felt that we really "connected." During our dinner date I had mentioned that there was a nice walking trail near my house, so she asked if I wanted to go for a walk some night and then watch a movie at my place. Again, I think that maybe she is just shy and nervous in person and that she might eventually open up, so I agree.

She shows up for the walk looking beautiful as usual and, as usual, doesn't speak a word. We go for the walk in silence. We watch the movie in silence. I walk her to her car in silence. There is a long, drawn out and empassioned kiss good night (again, initated by her) and.... silence. And next day there is the usual email about what a great time she had and would I like to go shopping with her on Saturday.

Instead, I invited her for a coffee and when she showed up, I asked her straight out: "Are you shy or nervous around me? Because in when we're together you're so quiet, yet your emails are full of chatter. What gives?" She responds with, what to her, is a major speech: "My sister writes my emails for me. I don't really have much to say." I ask her, "Do you mean 'you don't have much to say to me?'" and she answers: "No, I really don't think about much. I just don't have anything to say."

A woman like that might be the dream for some men. Not for me. There wasn't another date.

Worst date? Ouch, here it is ... it's long, but worth the read I promise!

Talked to this guy, email, on the phone, seemed very nice, funny, cute. Set a coffee date, he lived about an hour and a half away, but I asked if he could hop on the subway to come to the other side of the city so it would only be a half hour drive for me (it would have been about a 30 minute subway for him) and he said no he doesn't go to that side of the city ... should have been my first clue ...

So I drive all the way there, bad traffic all the way. He looked similar to his pics, not at all unattractive but shorter than he said. And I felt the whole time like I was an animal on the auction block the way he was looking at me and making comments, asked me to stand up so he could get a good look at me, then nodded his head and said "nice figure" ... He said he'd had a long day and actually put his head down on the table for a 10 minute "nap" in the middle of our date.... should have been the second clue ...

So I decline a second date and tell him why, he apologizes and says he's made a bad impression, he'd like to make it up to me ... so ... against my better judgement, I say ok.

The next date he spends most of the time talking to the waiter, we go rent a movie, he picks one he knows I've already seen, and we go back to his place. He had implied he lived alone, but when we get there he says "oh you get to meet my parents!"... so he goes in and leaves me freezing on the front porch for 10 minutes in February, I walk in and both his parents are like "oh it's so nice to finally meet you, we've heard so much about you!" (this was our second date, we'd talked for 3 weeks ...) so we go to the basement, and the tv is infront of the bed ... I'm sensing trouble here ...

He lies down in such a way that I had to crawl over him to get to the other side of the bed, and within 5 minutes is kissing and groping me ... at first I figure, whatever, it's been a while ... but then he looks deep into my eyes and says "I'm going to give you a wedgie" and I start giggling thinking he's joking, but oh no ... he gave me a wedgie ... and then tried to kiss me again !!!

WHAT SORT OF MAN THINKS A WEDGIE IS FOREPLAY ?!?!?!?!

Then he starts asking why I wore lace underwear, since by now they are sticking up like 2 inches above the top of my pants ... did I think I was going to get laid tonight ? ha ha ha very funny ... So I tell him he wouldn't be getting lucky tonight, and I got up to leave ...

He would not even walk me to my car, which was parked 3 blocks away in an underground garage in a neighbourhood I don't know...

AAAAND, the next day he called, wanting to know when I'd see him again, and didn't understand why I didn't want to see him, he was a great date right ?? RIGHT ???

Well, it wasn't really a bad date I suppose...
He was a really nice guy. We chatted for a bit and met up for coffee. He kept saying things that sounded like self-affirmation type phrases. One he kept repeating was "I like life..."
Have you ever seen Kids in the Hall? Remember Chicken Lady? "Chicken lady loves life!!!" Every time he said it I got that mental picture, and I spent the 2 hours trying despirately not to burst out laughing.
I actually walked away from it feeling like a bad person...

My worst experience was right out of a movie with ironically, someone I met off this site a long time ago.

She messaged me first to which I was very flattered by because she was very attractive. We sent emails back and forth on here for about a week then moved to msn for another two weeks. My impression of her at that time was that she was "cooky" but seemed pretty nice. I asked her to go for a beer on a patio that I like. She accepted.

When I got there before her, I picked a table and sat down. When asked if I wanted anything to drink, I said just a water (as it was summer and fairly hot out). She got there a few minutes late and seemed a little miffed that I had already chosen a table AND "ordered" already. Uhhh ok. So the date is going along .. the conversation is flowing rather well (ie. none of those awkward quite moments). The subject of my son came up and in a totally random comment of complete strangeness, she said "well we can worry about that when I adopt him." I kind of laughed and thought nothing of it. A little bit later, she was making references to our marriage and her carrying my child. I politely and semi-jokingly said "Im not so sure that planning out the next 30 years is typical for a first date, but hey, Im game. haha." She then got totally serious and said "what did you think you were going to just get a piece of ass and then leave?" I responded with "I never thought anything of the sort. All I wanted was a beer." She said something akin to "your a guy and probably a pig. All you want is sex." I got up, dropped some money on the table for the drinks, and said have a great afternoon. My backside kind of made out some profanity laced insults but I wasnt really listening.

As a side note .. I had a few face prints on my windows the day after :P JK!!

Any ways to make a long story short I refused and she went herself the guys loved that ...and she stayed there for 30 minutes smoking pot with them while I was like twitching a the bar....I wasnt there when she returned!!
So back at my place I am trying to reassemble my self image and I went to sleep.....2.5 hours later she reappears at my place screaming my name at my window I let her In she collapses telling me how much she loves me... crying mess then starts to wreck my apartment...just UGLY...

diffrent strokes for different folks...my coworker was interested in him. So I figured we just didn't hit it off. I had warned her but she was curious. So I set them up together.

You can have a bad date but the person you had the bad date with may not be all bad.

Of course when it came to the manic depressive clown with a pilot's license who's ex wife became a lesbian and he hated blondes (I was blonde at the time). I walked out after the 7th bad blonde joke, went to my car and had a good cry.

And now, I don't leave my car behind (or bring change for cab fare) I had one zzzzzz loudly during 'Batman Returns' at the theatre and wished I could have taken off in my car but it was at the coffee shop. Then I went home and found out Princess Diana died. Bad night all around.

I don't waste time with bad dates anymore, polite or otherwise. I've met bad ones, excused myself went to the ladies room to collect my thoughts, walked up to him sitting at the restaurant and said "I don't think this is going to work out, good luck to you" and left (in that case he had grossly misrepresented himself). Yeah, he looked like he was going to cry but I wasn't going to feel sorry for a liar.

I'd rather meet as friends first, then see how I feel about him and see if it's mutual.

I had to bring this one back...last night was the worst date I've ever had and it didn't even have a beginning or real end.... First he called from work at 6ish and said I'll be a little late..giggling like a school girl and admittedly tipsy...DO YOU GET LOADED BEFORE A DATE???? I spent all day working and going to school, come home cook a beautiful meal to be ready for 7pm when he said he'd be here. Well 7:30 rolls around no call...8 no call dinner is ruined kids have eaten, at least they got to enjoy the meal, and are all warm tucked into bed. 8pm no call no show, 9pm no call no show, 9:50pm he calls because he parked downtown and has LOST his van???? WTF? Then he stops in at my house pissed, accuses me of being COLD hearted because I wasn't all warm and inviting..yeah gee I wonder why?? I'm hurt..pissed off..totally insulted...and soooo not putting up with the drama. This is the most disrespectful thing I have seen, on a meer second date??? Think there will EVER be a third? HELL NOOOOOOOO!

Verissa?

It was only a second date and you invited this guy to your home with your kids in the house?

You are lucky his worst fault was he was stupid and had no sense of time nor direction. He could have been violent.

I've been a single mom, it's tough. I NEVER brought a man home and when I went out, my kid had a "sleepover" at her friend's house (next door) who's mom happened to also be my babysitter (and I slipped her a $20). So I was home when she left and I was home the next morning when she got back. And I ALWAYS met the guy in a public place.

If you find another single mom, maybe you both could trade nights off?

Just a suggestion.

Met someone on another site (he is also on this site) who, after talking for a while, asked me out for drinks. I agreed. We each had a drink - then he took me to the back of the bar and pushed me down on my knees and started to open his pants. I split real fast!

Another great date...I met him on this site. He seemed like a real sweetheart. He doesn't drink and he doesn't smoke, but he did not indicate this in his profile (prefer not to say). We got together, but he didn't want dinner. He didn't want drinks. We ended up in a starbucks. As we were talking he kept rubbing my leg. I asked to please not do that because it made me uncomfortable. He stopped. Then he started all over again. What a jerk!

Last, but certainly not least, I had been dating someone for 7 or 8 weeks. We had gone out to our favorite Greek restaurant in Brooklyn. He took me home and as I was about to get out of the car, he just said "I think we have to end this a bit". No warning, no discussion over dinner. Everything seemed as always and he just blew me off.

How's that for great dates?

One bad date took place recently. Nice guy, but his mannerisms drove me nuts. He giggled like a girl, had bad table manners and had long fingernails. I could not believe that he had longer fingernails than I did! I am turned off by guys who don't keep their fingernails neatly clipped!

Someone like that goes in the "just friends" category. I don't feel comfortable telling him exactly why I would want him to be just friends, but that's just why!

Still

Bad dates are fun to laugh about later, though!

Well, with me it started also by the chat, and the guy once stated as living in the same city, he got me to meet him next day.
Though, I came 9 minutes late, and saw nobody at the place. Good, we made to meet on a small park place in front of the library. I said, ok, I wasn't so thrilled either. When I entered the library I noticed there was a strange old guy staring at me, but I ignored. He was on the library computer session, and I just sat across the room on the wireless sector, I had my laptop with me.
The same guy came minutes later to me, and I could not recognizse the same guy as of the pictures in his profile, besides he had a pale and mad look like a vampire. As intimidating as all that sound, he also had an intimidating inquire towards me, preaching tones, saying that we're supposed to meet, and I was late, while pointing several times to his watch. Next he "requested" me to go out with him! I really had enough. I said a flat no, and please I am busy, and he was kind of trying to figure out what I was doing on my laptop and on POF, and thereafter he left, returning to POF online hour later, and then daring to request me to chat with him. I definitely have been refusing since them. Yes, and he dares to insist to a chat with me even after I emailed him to stop. He did not answer the email for a good reason, I would block him this way, therefore he did not answer, and he knows how to exploit these things here. He is looking for trouble. BTW, the meeting was made for a weekday and at 1pm. He says that he is a manager, but he was dressed very informal. I think he is a pro in abusing of women, and maybe married. I have reported him twice and our good POF guy might get him outta here soon. I eventually will be ready to take further legal action if he might dare to get nastier as a psycho and stalker... We supposely live in the same city.
