40 Times A Date Went South Really Fast

1st time this particular date came to my house. My cat was being ... well a cat. I moved her off a throw she was making biscuits on so she didn't damage it. She did a cat and as soon as I sat down, went back to start doing it again. Date lept up yelling with fist clenched that he would sort that bastard cat once and for all. He was really raging. Nope nope and nope

Long story short, found out he was married when his wife texted me like 2 days after we became official. He is no longer married and I have a new bestie now

Tinder date - I had two cats at the time, this guy knew this, it had come up in conversation. First date, everything is going well, there’s banter, it’s comfortable. Then I start talking about my cats and he shuts down. I ask if something is wrong and he goes oh I just hate cats, if I ever see one I kick it. I walked out and blocked him

I was 17 and it was one of my first dates ever. A childhood friend asked me out to the movies. The guy wouldn’t let me go to the bathroom alone, kept saying women need a firm male hand to live a pure life, and got all gropey. I literally snuck out during a loud scene, ran to the restaurant next door and called my stepfather to come pick me up. That guy called my house for weeks pissed I would insult him like that.

She bit me. And I mean, she CLEARLY saw it as flirty and playful and I do get that. But she broke the skin. And REFUSED to let go when I said she was hurting me. I finally snapped at her to please stop. She deflated like a balloon, then began that silent “I can’t catch my breath” sobbing. I could feel every eye in the restaurant on us. I paid, apologized, and took her home. She was silent the entire ride, then before she got out told me I was making a mistake by losing her.
Yeah, no.

Met a guy through one of the apps. Made sure he *knew* I was an athiest, no interest in religion at all. He insisted he had no problem with that. Get to the restaurant, sit down, and he hands me a wrapped gift. It was a book about coming to jesus. Shortest first date ever.

I had an appointment with a new gynecologist in the morning and a blind date that night. Same guy. Did not recognize me. So awkward.

So many to chose from but my favorite was the time I went to a guy’s house for the first time and he made me watch 40 min of videos of him driving a plow truck through snowy parking lots (I live in Iowa, this is not impressive, and I don’t think it would be even if we lived somewhere without snow). Then he told me that HE STILL LIVED WITH HIS WIFE AND SHE WAS UPSTAIRS, I told him I was no longer interested in pursuing anything with him. He got super offended and told me I was being unreasonable.

At his house, dude came strutting out wearing nothing but a ridiculous zebra print thong/pouch thing. I instantly laughed, thinking he was doing this for comic effect.

He was not. And proceeded to get whiny and refused to accept an apology. Had it been a solid color I would not have laughed ; it was the silly zebra stripes that set me off.

We finally added each other on Facebook. We had like 40 mutual friends, but I didn’t look through all of them. He asks me how I know this one girl he saw was a mutual. I ask why he’s asking. He said “oh I hooked up with her at a party and never got around to unfriended her”.
IT WAS MY LITTLE SISTER

Mid-80's. Older woman at the gym fixed me up with her son. He arrives with a red rose and I was gob-smacked. He was GORGEOUS and sweet. He wants to take me to the latest "video bar" for drinks and dancing (it was the 80's, y'all!). We hit it off on the ride over and I was really getting exited. We weren't in the bar 5 minutes when he says "I see someone I know, I'll be right back". Next thing I know he is screaming and crying at another man and his wife. Turns out it was his boyfriend.

I went on a night date with a guy who showed up to an Italian restaurant wearing white yoga pants. White. Yoga. Pants. At night. To a packed restaurant. And of course — he hadn’t made a reservation. The place was completely full, so he actually begged the waiter to let us keep a table for 30 minutes before the next reservation arrived. That was red flag number one, but unfortunately I decided to be kind instead of smart. We sit down. A few minutes into small talk, he starts talking about his mom

Then… dramatic pause. Full silence. And suddenly he starts sobbing. Not tearing up. Full-on, shoulders-shaking,not breathing crying. I’m thinking, oh my God, this poor man just lost his mother. So I gently ask if it was recent. He says, “It was about 15 years ago.” Fifteen.Thankfully, the waiter comes to reclaim the table. But he is not moving. The waiter asks once. Twice. Three times. Finally I basically order him to get up.

And just when I think the night cannot possibly get worse, as he’s paying, he turns to me and asks if I can add 10 AUD because he ran out of money.Sir.!!!You wore white yoga pants to a fully booked restaurant you couldn’t afford and trauma-dumped over pizza

Spent the night at his place, in the morning he wakes me up at 7am “you have to leave, my mother will be over soon to clean up”.

Lady tells me right out of the gate, “I’m a triple Scorpio. I’m intense. I’m deep. You’d better not cross me! Etc.” She wanted Thai so I took her to a noodle spot. I wore a nice black tshirt (nice fit, no graphics), dark jeans and nice boots, had a nice haircut. She was not dressed up. We ate and talked, I paid the bill; no chemistry. I said bye and gave her a hug. She texted me after-said I didn’t look nice for the date, didn’t take her to a nice enough place & she never wanted to see me again

Dating app guy. We meet. Cliche- he looks nothing like his photos, is significantly older, and 5’6” maybe- not the 6’1” he claimed to be (idc about height. I do care about multiple lies).
He finds out I’m working in a vet hospital and then shows me dozens of photos of his black lab, immediately followed by asking me about every single condition he thought the dog might have. I suggested he bring her to the clinic with his concerns. He adamantly refuses. “She’s just a dog.”
I walked out.

Went to to go see a girl I liked that I thought was having a mental health crisis. She said she just wanted to drive around and talk. So we did. We got blue lighted coming out of her apt conplex and refused to pull over. Ended up leading us on a high speed chase in 3 diff counties and we got pit maneuvered by a state trooper

I woke up, the guy I was seeing slept over but left before I woke up. So I go to the bathroom and see that he had diarrhea all over the toilet, floor, rugs, bathtub, shower curtains, etc. I was so horrified I went back to my bed - pulled back the cover to see he had [pooped] the bed as well.

Has been on a couple of dates, wasn't going anywhere & I called her to end it. Before I could:
Her: I wanted to talk to you about last night, im really upset you didn't try to kiss me
Me: I didn't think you wanted me to
Her: I didn't, I'm REALLY upset you didn't try.
Best I can tell, she really was very unhappy about it, it wasn't an act.

I went over to this guy's apartment to smoke and chill. I was young and stupid. Please don't come for me. I get there and we go to his bedroom and start smoking. I've been there for five minutes and someone knocks on his door. He goes out to check who it is. 15 minutes pass. He texts me it'll just be a bit longer. 25 more minutes pass. He texts me telling me that it's his ex outside and asks if I can please leave through the window.

Went on a first date with someone who proceeded to tell me he was still in love with his on-again-off-again ex after we just so happened to drive past her apartment. He later proceeded to share throughout the date that he’d been quite promiscuous, which has led to STDs and then further shared that sleeping around is a way he copes with depression for which he’s been hospitalized on more than one occasion. I don’t know what truth serum he took, but my god, did he lay it all out on the table.
