    My first date with a guy on Friday:

    Him: "Oh. I shouldn't have ordered brocolli. It makes me fart."
    Me: **staring in shock**
    Him: "Let's hope I don't fart."
    Me: **face palm**

    He's 35. Quite possibly why he's single.

    Honesty is refreshing. Can I get his digits?

    Back off sister, I asked first! :tongue:

    Tag team?!

    I'm sure he'd be down for the tag team from all that I gathered about him in our encounter.

    Yesss! *fist pump*

    Oh, I'm soooo IN!

    The thing is, had he said this when we WERE NOT eating, I would have laughed and been okay with it. But please don't talk about farting and pooping as I'm putting food in my mouth.

    Well one first date I went on, he asked me out. Then asked if I could pick him up, since his car isn't in the best shape. Okay, not a big deal, I can totally drive. Then we get to the restaurant, eat, and then he "suddenly" realizes he doesn't have his wallet with him.
    :noway: It didn't work out. Don't get me wrong, I have no issue with paying for my share of things, but this was just weird.

    Really not that bad compared to some of these other stories though!

    He must not have been very hot.....

    See, I would've been ok with that! I'm really a 12 yr old in a 47 yr old's body.

    Were you eating a tootsie roll? Because that would make this story so much better. Especially one of the really big ones.....

  • One of my friends had a first date with a guy she met online. He took her out to dinner then asked her if she wanted to take a walk in the park. All was going well until they got back to the car and he asked her if he could rub her feet. She thought it was awkward, but put her foot up. He then dipped his head down and tried to suck her toes! worst first date story I ever heard.

    at least he didn't ask her to rub his feet and suck his toes....

    :laugh: He was alright. I should add it wasn't because of this date that it didn't work out. We went out a couple more times after this.

    Chicken leg...something I could have choked on due to the shock and me trying to gather if that was just said.

    He then proceeded to talk about an ex which I find to be unattractive. Down the line, sure. We all have them but I am more interested in learning about the person sitting across the table from me...not the person who was in my chair a few months ago.

    Calling exes "crazy b*tches/d*cks".


    Totally been on this date too!!

    If someone is going to speak that bad about their past relationships... and especially when they never do anything wrong... seems like it's always their ex's fault... yeah... I'M OUT!

    I feel the same way!

    I had a guy ask if I'm going to be his little black girl. Had it not been over the phone, I think I would have slapped him.

    Worst for me was while watching a movie with a guy, a sex scene comes on, and he then starts telling me about his porn collection. Gross!

    What's wrong with porn? It's educational.

    Is that a bad thing? I thought you were supposed to send junk shots if it went well. I thought it meant "hey...I had a good time....I will actually call you again"?

    Guy1- (after having only met once) got mad that I declined his offer to bring me soup. I had a migrane and just wanted to sleep.
    Called me next day, upset, because his mom gave him a special photo album for his birthday and told him it was for when he started a family.

    Guy 2- Constantly called (I think first call was about 6am), hung up when I didn't answer and would immediately call again. Finally left hostile message. Didn't take it well when I told him to stop calling.

    Guy 3- Supposedly loved his Pug SOOOO much, but told me he didn't want to waste money on a vet to pull her tooth. Instead, he got her drunk and pulled her bad tooth with pliers. If the alcohol didn't kill her the infection in her mouth could have.

    I had a guy that picked me up and drove me straight to his house without batting an eye. After we sat around for a little while talking he pulled his sheets out of the dryer and asked me to help him make the bed.

    :noway:

    Let's see... in no order what so ever... all happened to me in the last 6months to a year!

    Guy that says he works out... shows up weighing 300+lbs... looking nine months pregnant... yeah that was just Friday night!

    Guy that goes to pay with a "prepaid" credit card... it's declined; tells me it only has $20 on it...can I pick up the rest of the tab... oh yeah, then asks me... if my credit card has enough money on it to cover $25... yes, buddy... I own a business... I could pick up a small car with this card!

    Guy that says... sure I've been sick. But I'm all better now... yeah...he was on steroids for about a year... looked nothing like his pictures!

    Guy that says he's 5'7".... which is cool... I'm only 5'2"... with shoes... yeah, so wear 4" heels... I towered over him!

    The guy that orders me 3 shots as soon as we sit down!

    The guy that wants to pick me up from my house; not only so he can know where I live... but in his words... "Make sure I didn't run out on the date"....

    The guy that says he's divorced... yeah... wife shows up and calls me the *kitten*! Because he's still married!

    The guy that says he's coming out to meet me... and 2 hrs later... after I am already at home... he calls and asks... "Where are you?"

    Hmmm, let's see... oh one of my favorite ones... he was missing a finger... doesn't tell me... his hand was seriously deformed... throws it up on the table and asks... "Does this bother you?"

    The guy that parades me by his ex gf at a local bar... only to try and go home with her...and leave me at the bar!

    The guy that follows me to a club... chats me up all night... total sweetheart. My phone dies; so I use his to call my best friend and let her know we've gone to a club two doors down... the next day... VALENTINES DAY... his wife calls and says he lost his phone last night and this was the last number that was dialed! He was married!

    Or the guy I was totally in love with... he asked me to marry him... 6 months into dating... HE WAS STILL MARRIED!!! And even now... a year later... STILL MARRIED!

    Hmmm, my list could go on and on... I can't even remember all the bad things that I have been through... on first dates... first meetings... etc etc.

    Some of you ladies are very uptight.
  • After reading several of these, it seems to me there is something of a 4th garde syndrome here. The girls are like "eeeewe" and the guys are all "lighten up". There seems to be something of the "pulling the girl's pigtails to show her you like her" routine here.

    Of course, if she's wearing pigtails and she like's it like that... ;)

    This would actually be fine with me. If I didn't get to see it on the date it would help me decide if the guy was worth seeing again.

    The only thing I can really think off that was a huge turn off on a first date with someone was when he ate off my plate... Um, hello? We just met and you're stealing my food?
