80 Men Who Destroyed Their Chances On The First Date Before Dessert Arrived

Told me he is living with his ex, is supporting his ex, sleeps in the same bed as his ex and wouldn't shut up about his ex.

Found out he was married.

He said he was glad I wasn’t some Jew from J-Date.

I’m Jewish.

I told him so, cue shocked face, then I went to pay for my own drink and left.

He was constantly on his phone (not for work).

Asked me for specific details about how my mom [passed away] and if it was genetic. Essentially sizing up if my genetics were good enough to have kids with.

He tried to beat up another guy. I don’t like violent people.

He asked about my hobbies and I said I liked to read. He said “ooo I heard about those spicy books you women love to read.” Didn’t even bother asking what I like to read or what I was currently reading which was a thriller novel, instead just assumed something.

Said a racial slur....I was like ???????

Pressured me to do shots (I declined, while he still did them), talked about how he drove from 30+ minutes away for the date, then disclosed he has 2 prior DUIs. I noped out real quick.

My mom went on a date with some guy that mainly consisted of him making her watch as he tried and failed to solve a Rubik’s cube. He finally rage-quit and drove her home. Along the way, he cut another guy off in traffic while laughing like The Joker.

He kept touching things in the art museum. Until I told him off. Then he just kept touching all the signs that said "do not touch" and giggling. We were both in our 20s...

Sat on the same side of the booth as me, kept touching my leg and talking really close to my face. NOPE.

When he picked me up he had a beautiful bouquet of flowers on the passenger seat. I immediately thought how sweet that was. He didn’t give them to me right away but I thought he might be saving them until later in the date. We start driving and he asks if I mind if he stops off to say hello to sick classmate before we get something to eat. I agree, so we pull up to an apartment complex, he grabs the flowers, and proceeds to jump out of the car while telling me to sit tight and that he won’t be long. 20 minutes later he returns and tells me SHE loved the flowers. We then proceeded to a restaurant where all he did was talk about himself for the rest of the date. When he dropped me off at home he leaned over for a kiss and asked when we would meet again. I didn’t kiss him and told him I didn’t think it was a match.

Told me he really hated cats, after asking me if I had any pets and listening to me talk about my cat.

Another: told me I was completely wrong about an ending choice in a game. Which I wasn’t, I’d played the game many times and had just gotten this ending. But he never got this ending, so it couldn’t possibly be a thing, and proceeded to tell me how wrong I was.

Edit: it was Mass Effect 3, with enough Galaxy Ready points Shepard lives at the end (or the implication is Shep lives). He claimed this was impossible, there’s no way, and I was mistaken.

My friend's date pulled out his phone mid-conversation to show her his stock portfolio. She said she's never paid a check so fast in her life.

We were sitting at the bar and his roommate was sitting next to him. I found out near the end of the date.

Farted a bunch and then lowered the lights.

He spent the entire time we were at the restaurant talking about how much he liked owls, how he lays on his bed every night and listens to videos of them with the lights off, and did you know, they don't really hoot? They mostly screech! 

Then he demonstrated.

Hardly spoke at all. I cannot carry the conversation all by myself.

Said he was taking me to a nice restaurant. We arrive and get seated and then the owners come meet us.... the owners were his parents. Yes, he introduced me to his parents on a first date.
