Worst date I've been on?
Slings, where is that image of the staplegun?
*chuckle*
Jan 3, 1981
We were at a restaurant and the evening had been so abysmal (the guy was so obnoxious and full of himself and I barely got to say two words all night) that when I went to the ladies' room, I actually did very strongly consider climbing out the window, slipping into my car and hightailing it out of there.
I'm too nice....I just couldn't do it.
So I pleaded a headache instead, made my escape and NEVER allowed friends to "fix me up" again.
Wanna share?
My prom date broke out in the damndest case of hives I've ever seen.
I was lonelier than Kunta Kinte at a Merle Haggard concert that night I strolled on into Uncle Limpy's Hump Palace lookin' for love. It had been a while. In fact, three hundred and sixty-five had come and went since that midnight run haulin' hog to Shakey Town on I-10. I had picked up this hitchhiker that was sweatin' gallons through a pair of Daisy Duke cut-offs and one of those Fruit Of The Loom tank-tops. Well, that night I lost myself to ruby red lips, milky white skin, and baby blue eyes. Name was Russell.......
The worst date ever was the first tuesday in November of 1992.
Hope none of the women I dated are aware of FR....
I've never been on a bad date, though a lot of women I have dated disagree with me on that one. I'd learn more, but none return my calls...
Blind date.
1979.
Arranged by my good friend Mike and his fiance Michelle.
Heavily hyped by Mike as someone who would be perfect for me. We would get along fabulously, etc.
We met at some concert (can't remember who).
Not bad looking, but not my type. I was obviously not hers.
Hung out for a while, and by the time the concert started, we had gone our seperate ways.
The "date" portion lasted maybe 45 minutes.
A month or so later, I called her and gave it a second chance. We went to an amusement park and had a good time all day. But, that "something" wasn't there.
I never saw her again.
OK, mine wasn't too bad.
I was VP of an organization in college that sponsored conservative speakers. I promised dates to a couple of guys to get them to attend. Both were the intellectual equivalents of green beans and word got out to BOTH of them that I had agreed to both dates. Never did that again!!
It was a fix-up, double date deal but I had been shown a picture and the girl was attractive - to the Neanderthal me anyway. I show up at the appointed time and she is there and she is in fact very attractive to the Neanderthal me.
So being a realist, I immediately think: NO way this girl needs to be fixed up like this - what is the deal here?
The second she opened her mouth to speak I found out what the deal was. This person was incredibly annoying and "empty headed". Intelligent conversation with this person was completely out of the question. What a long night that was.
day10
Back in '72, a girl that I had gone out and broken up with about a year earlier started showing some interest again so I thought (like a complete idiot) "why not?" It lasted until I lit up a smoke - I guess she spent the year away from me becoming a tobacco nazi. So I took her home, not saying a word to each other the whole way, dropped her off and went to find some some friends, and grab about a dozen beers to drown my sorrows.
We had to clean and repair one of the city's cesspools that was leaking raw sewage.
We started the work on a Monday. It took us a week to do the work.
After the first two days our Dad put us up in a local motel rather than have us in the house. The restaurant did not normally offer room service. They made an exception for us.
After work on Friday we went on a double date. We picked up his date first. 5 minutes later we arrived at my date's house. His date went running from the car and told my date not to go. Just as she was asking "Why?" she caught wind of us. Our dates bid us a good evening and my date drove my brother's date home as we went back to the motel for room service.
I remember how scared and nervous I was the first time I went all the way. There I was in a dark room all alone......
This isn't mine, but MUST be told.
A girlfriend of mine in college back in the late 80's told me this one...
A friend of hers FINALLY got a date with the guy she had been lusting for for months. Problem is, the night of the date, she was ill. Not wanting to ruin her chance, she decided to suck it up and go out anyway. She made it through the entire evening and they were sitting in his car in front of her house, when this incredible urge to fart came over her. She could not hold it back and unfortunately, being sick and all, it wasn't only a fart that came out, if you know what I mean.
End of date, end of relationship.
