Online dating disasters!

Just found this group :drinker: Anyone got any good disaster date stores (mine have mainly come from POF)? I had one guy meet me at the place for dinner and when it was a two hour wait he suggested going somewhere else. As soon as I get to my car I get a text, "I don't want to sound like a **** or anything but this isn't going anywhere"...talk about confidence buster....wamp wamp
Of course I've also had to deal with a couple of stage 5 clingers...the most recent being a guy that talked about us being exclusive (ya know the bf/gf words) after the first date and then he called me an *kitten* for politely telling him that I didn't want to jump into a serious relationship and that maybe we were looking for different things.
I can't be the only one that has had some doozies!

Welcome to the group! I've only had some funny things said during dates... nothing to crazy.0 -
First, welcome to the group!!
One doozy of a date I had we met for coffee. I instantly knew who he was when I went in to Starbucks because he was the only one even sitting down, that was towering over people (he's 6'8).
Sat down started to talk, and I instantly knew there was no connection, but was pleasant enough to chat with. He proceeded to tell me I haven't lived because I do not like escargot, or rocky mountain oysters. I am sorry but I am cool with what I do eat. Then he was telling me he bought his ex a 4 carat diamond ring. The next day she packed her crap and moved out - took everything including the ring. (he even told me how much he spent on the ring - dude really??)
He proceeded to tell me I should go to church with him and maybe I will be "saved". Oh yeah this date has to end NOW! So I said politely it has been a pleasure meeting you, but I really must go. I have to get up early (which I do so I was not lying). He was planning on taking me to all these places for dinner etc. I once again politely said I need to go, and it has been a great pleasure meeting you, but to be honest I just do not feel any chemistry between us. He then proceeded to again tell me placed he wanted to take me to dinner, etc. At that point I stopped being polite, I just left.0 -

I trod on a guy's new trainers and he started screaming at me. Telling me how i disrespected his personal property and abused his trust.
it was an accident :huh:
I think he said he had OCD.......................yeah, ok!0 -

Dude, stepping on someone's new kicks is an act of war!

HOLY FREAKING COW.0 -
i hear a lot of women complaing that guys lie about the height..i am like well how the heck does that work when you meet.
i had 2 gals use fake pictures but when i meet them i didnt care but it was obvious they were either using a pic that was many many years old or it was someone else.
the epic fail i had on pof was one gal agreeded to meet me for ice cream (we live close to a B&R and it was her sugggestion) buslt she wanted to chat on the phone first. so we talked and the whole time she kept getting inturrepted by people she lives with but we talked. 5 minutes after we hung up she texted sorry no connection..i was like it was just ice cream why not meet we could be friends nope she had enough friends..then 3 days later she stalks me on fb and sends a message saying she might have pulled the trigger too fast...0 -
I got a few messages from this one guy, and I hadn't been on to check them. He took this as me ignoring him, and when I signed on, there were the first few and a really nice new one..
He pretty much told me to "Go get ****ed in the *kitten* behind Starbucks by one of your gym bros"
He ended it by calling me a "Goo Goo Dolls *****" and told me to meet him in a nearby park for a "grudge ****."
Another great one was the guy who sent me a really long message about how small his junk was. He told me if I wanted, he would send me a photo and I could let him know what I thought.
No, thanks.0 -
He ended it by calling me a "Goo Goo Dolls *****"
I don't even know what this means. I am pretty sure I am glad I don't know.0 -

i don't know, either...0 -
I am pretty sure I am the bad story for the two online dates I've been on. Neither generated from a dating site and in my naivete I didn't see them as dates and thus couldn't have been more nonchalant if I tried.0

Quick Question: How can you tell when there's a "Connection" the first date or right when you sit down and start talking. Is it the body language? Conversation? Attraction? All of the above? I never understood.0 -

Oh wow!!!!! That's crazy!!!0 -
I got groped twice this week. Both first dates. Both met on OKCupid. I actually asked the second one where he got off thinking that's okay? His response, "Your answers to the sex questions".
Wait, so because I answered some questions about my sexual preferences and am somewhat openminded when it comes to sex and sexuality you ASSUME that I'm easy? WTMotherEffingEff?!?!?
I'm tempted to go back under the rock of insecurity and hamstrung ego I've been living under for the past year. At least I wasn't getting molested by practically strangers.0 -

I had one of those this week! Profile said 5'8, which is already 2.5 inches shorter than me. He would have *maybe* been 5'8 if he was wearing my heels. Maybe.0 -

So how was the photo?
Completely wonderful.
We're now engaged to be married.0 -

We're now engaged to be married.
Awesome. This completely validates the large collection of junk shots I have been taking. Now to send them all to that special someone.0 -

Say yes to the... junk?0 -
Whenever someone tells me their shoes are new, I immediately proceed to "inaugurate" the new pair by stepping on them several times with a big smile.
right! :noway: I'd book yourself into therapy!! :laugh:

Never answer the sex questions no matter if you are openminded..as soon as they ask that's the clue..all they want is booty call. And sadly that is most of the guys on POF from my experience. I could list too many crappy online dating experiences to count. From men who brought their own coffee to a cheap coffee shop because they couldn't afford it (3 kids with 3 different mothers all the same age????) anyway I can't handle online dating any more it just depresses me. I'm just trying to keep busy with the activities I love and hope something will come from that some day.0

first there was no physical attraction, and well the conversation sealed that deal, and well to be honest he didnt even offer to buy me coffee, so manners is a big thing with me too0 -

Do your "gym bros" typically hangout behind Starbucks?? Mine prefer Ice cream shops to coffee.0 -

That really sucks!! A lot of those questions are phrased "if you're in a committed relationship would you..." so of course answering them honestly to what you would do then as opposed to a first date would be different!0 -
I have given up on online dating. Too many horrible stories, and I always ask myself if I would be happier with the person, or alone, and I always end up saying alone.
I also am giving up with online and just going to stick to activities that I like and hopefully will meet someone through that. I've tried paid sites (Match for a bit, then eHarmony) and free (POF) and get equally bad results with all of them.0 -
Not sure I've had any disasters. I've had several that were disappointments where the girl was not what she represented. I had one who said she was trying to quit smoking. She went outside every 10 minutes for another cigarette. Another one looked skinny in her photos and listed her body type as petite. She was about 5'1 and 200 lbs. We went for a walk around the park, about 2 miles. She was hunched over and wheezing after about a half mile. I think it took us an hour to walk the 2 miles. She also told me she wasn't worried about her finances because a psychic told her she'd be okay for money.0

Sounds like that guy was too broke to afford condoms that year too :noway:0 -
