Valentine's Day is approaching, Pandas, so how many of you are going on your first dates on February 14th? If you have one planned already, there are some things to keep in mind. For example, how long should a first date be?
According to a survey conducted by the Match dating app, an average first date lasts for about two hours and 22 minutes. Dating experts say that one to two hours is the ideal time for a first date. It allows the couple to learn the very basics about each other but leaves enough mysteries for a second date.
Sadly, some first dates can drag on even if they're half an hour or even shorter. Bored Panda recently came upon two threads online where folks were sharing the moments during first dates when they realized there certainly wouldn't be a second one. We've compiled the funniest, most outrageous, and intriguing stories and present them to you here!

Picked up at her house to go to a bar. On the way to the bar, in the car, she drank an entire bottle of wine by herself.

She revealed 1/2 way through dinner that her parents were sitting right next to us listening to our entire conversation. Lucky I'm a gentleman and always down for crazy moments. She revealed her parents after agreeing to go to a bar after dinner. We all went to the bar where I offered to buy everyone a drink. That all declined...so I bought one myself and drank it while chatting. I just sat there as the only one in our group drinking a beer. Dad rode a motorcycle with some motorcycle group leather jacket that had the words "no honoi jane". I later found out that he was criticizing jane fonda for things she did during our Vietnam invasion.
They were all recent transplants from Virginia. Makes me think many people in Virginia might have some issues and they may raise their daughters to be totally dependent. Regardless, I found it entertaining since I wasn't really into her anyway.

1) Trauma dumping
2) The "if you don't mind can I ask you a question?"
Because in my experience 90% of the time, the question is inappropriate or too heavy for a first date question.

She kept asking me if she was the prettiest girl I’ve met up with, and she wasn’t.

It's also a power move on her part.
She wanted to control the dynamic.

Realizing I was paying, she ordered two appies, an entree, 2 desserts, and 4 cocktails, finished every last bite then said she needed to go home because she wasn't feeling well.

He kept pressuring me to get one more drink when I want even finished with my first one. I said no like 3 times and eventually gave in and just let it sit there.
