    I used to do the whole "internet dating" game which of course is pretty much blind-dating.

    It always makes me laugh to hear dating stories like this. I can't believe men do these things.

    Sadly this isn't even my weirdest date!

    ok, lets hear it! :bigsmile:

    I would definitely consider that weird! haha I'd be weirded out if someone did that to me. I was on a date one time with a girl. We went to the movie theater. Evidently she was the type to put her feet up against the seat in front of her. Well, someone had sat down in the seat in front of her. She "politely" said something along the lines of, " I tend to push the seat a little with my feet so if that annoys you then you may want to sit someone else." Needless to say, it was awkward and I felt bad for the person sitting in front of her. I thought it was pretty rude. Oh, and there was no second date ;)

    If my girl and I hit it off, I would do it (eat off her plate) just to show enclosure, but if it wasn't an eye-to-eye thing, then that's just plain rude hahaha. SHUT THAT DOOR AINT NO SECOND DATE HOMIES

    What's "showing enclosure"?
    Showing each other pictures of your sun porch

    I had a first date with a woman who overdosed in the bathroom of the restaurant. And yes, I sure know how to pick them!

    lol that is strange for a first date, but it wouldn't turn me off if I liked everything else about him. Maybe it's something the two of you can laugh about later?

    In a world full of psychopaths and women constantly touting, "there are no good single men", you're gonna ditch this guy for taking a bite off your plate?! Really?

    I have food sharing issues, so that would be the end of the date right there. I don't even share food, drink, ect. with my child.

    I eat food off of people's plates all of the time without asking. However, I only do this with people who know me well, so they expect it from me.

    yah. he's right. probably you could look past that.

    if it was me, it wouldn't worry me unless I wasn't into the person. if you are into them, there fork on your plate is just the beginning.

    I probably would've done this.

    But honestly though, I don't think it's that big of a deal. If he had a very down to earth and laid back funny personality I probably would've found humor in the situation, and made a joke about it or in return grabbed something from his plate. Now if his personality was kinda dry, then yeah would have been awkward.

    When it's the "one", even on a first date, it will all feel right!

    What's "showing enclosure"?

    Being comfortable around the significant other, eating off the same plate, sharing drinks, stuff like that :)

    Yeah but without asking, on a first date? No! I mean if you all order only one plate that's fine but not just going and picking food off your date's plate..

    Yes, I called that one.

    He was attractive, well built, nicely in shape.

    We started talking, he talks about his kids. The perfect, excel at everything, never failed wonderful upper echelon of kidness. I'm like wow, you're a proud parent.

    Everything went back to his kids, except....

    My fitness goals. I ran and had a protein shake a little before the date. According to him, I'm drinking the wrong protein powder and not using enough. He asked about what I do at the gym, I replied Stronglifts, but I sprained my knee and had to take some time off. He told me I don't need to use my legs lifting weight since I'm a runner, huh? I've also chosen the wrong half marathon to be my first.

    The best part I almost forgot to include... He told me Stronglifts would bulk me up.

    He also got impatient in the beginning because we weren't seated fast enough.

    Girl, bye.

    Next....

    At the risk of sounding like a hussy, I have a dinner date tonight with someone else. This isn't a first date, I hope to enjoy myself.

    2 dates, 1 day. Are you online dating?

    One of the common themes I'm seeing in this thread is that many of these bad dates are happening at restaurants. Meals out at restaurants in the early stages of dating don't necessarily showcase best. I prefer activities if possible.

    Maybe he's very old school chivalrous. He was simply testing your food for poison, in order to prevent you from being harmed.

    I was set up on a blind date the other night. I really didn't want to go, but forced myself to put on my big girl shoes and make the best of it. He seemed somewhat normal, very good looking, a little self centered but I can deal with that. The food came and he asked me how mine was, before I could answer, he reached across with his fork and started eating off my plate. Is it just me or is that just weird???

    I had a Marine grab the chicken off my plate and start mowing down on it before I could even taste it, I think its a redneck thing lol

    Random side note: I don't understand online dating, I am trying it out right now and I get on of two messages...Pervy messages or "Can we text?" Is it just me or does this happen to all girls. I haven't had any sincere conversations with anyone on those sites. I mean who is going to give out there # to someone right off the bat on some site with out first establishing a connection, can you imagine how many creeps would get your cell. Secondly does anyone know how to start off a conversation on those sites that doesnt start off like "I bet you taste good" :/ ...really was that your best shot lol

    well, you might want to talk to them on the phone a few times first maybe? that way you would know weather you actually have something to talk about.

    No I dont mean after a few email exchanges have been made and a possible connection is established. I mean before they introduce themself or even know anything about you for instance your name they want your number. That is sketchy

    Have to admit that sometimes I do weird things like that on dates. Usually if I'm not too serious about getting in relationships with that girl, just wanna have fun.

    Not because I am like that... I just like to troll them, lol. See their reaction, it's funny. Most of the times there are no second date haha. I met a girl who used to get turned on by me burping. A burping fetish, it ended up being too weird for me. I didn't wanted to burn or her burping when we made love. And she constantly fed me with gassed drinks. There are some people who are turned on by pretty weird stuff.

    I wanna go to these 5 min quick dates where would date many ppl and switch seats every 5 min. I could make a new personality for every quick date. :D

    You think I'm mean? It's, not mean! I'm still being nice to girls and everything. We all are fake, at least most of us. We all put a mask when we go to date. Usually it's more beautiful mask than our real face. To make us look better, leave better impression, maybe even some white lies to leave impression. But once you got in relationships you will find that out and then decide if you are fine by it or now. I just put the masks what are funny. ^^
