What was your worst date?

A had a few dates with this girl in high school. Things were going well. After a party one night, she said she needed to swing by a friend's house to check on her. We pull up to the house, she tells me she'll just be a sec and tells me to wait in the car. Door opens and some shirtless dude who looks like he's in his mid 20's opens the door. He leans down and kisses her.

I just sit there stunned. She starts walking to the car and I just put it in reverse and left. She left a few things in the car (sunglasses, etc) so I just tossed them out of the window as I drove home.

About 3 years later, I was walking with my girlfriend (now wife) and ended up seeing her outside of Curtiss Hall. I just said "Hi" and kept walking.

It was a horrible date, but it ended up for the better!
 
I was a senior in high school and one of my better friends had a sister in 11th grade. She was one of the best looking girls in school (this was a large school, DM Roosevelt). Anyway he arranged a date for us because according to him she thought I was kinda cute. I picked her up, and on the way to the movies we smoked a large amount of weed. We were both so high and nervous that we didn't hardly speak the whole time. After the movie I took her home, she bolted from the car and we never spoke again. My friend kept asking "what happened"? Embarrassing at the time, funny now.

I was in slump for a while. My friends weren't any help: they were all married or in a relationship. Of course none of their sigs knew anyone either. So, I broke down and subscribed to a dating service. Painful, I know. Nevertheless, I learned a lot about making conversation, etc. One date, though, took the cake. We met and sat down and all I could think was "she looks exactly like my ex." That I had dated for almost 4 years! To make matters worse, she felt we really connected and kept calling afterward!

Now online dating....that is a different category entirely!

My favorite story there is talking to a gal on the phone (before meeting) and realizing that the suggestive picture in the profile included a stripper pole if you looked closely enough.
 
My worst date came after I'd been seeing the girl for about 4 months.

We were apart for about a month during winter break. First date when she came back, she wasn't feeling the bars and wanted to go to ISU After Dark instead. I told all my buddies I wasn't heading to the bars and they decided they were just going to stay in as well since I wasn't going out.

After an hour, she decided she did actually want to go to the bars because her annoying as friends were there. I told her I wasn't feeling it and that I would take CyRide home (Car was in shop.)

She says she'll give me a ride instead. Awesome. Get in her car and she starts driving and complaining how it's been a month since we'd seen each other and I need to go to the bars. I say sure whatever I'll go and have fun. She gets excited. We drive by Yokes, where her friends were, and there was at least 50 people waiting in line for the bars and it was -4 degrees outside at the time.

I said **** that, I'll take CyRide home. She says no, she didn't want to stay in line either, and says lets just take it back to my place and call it a night.

Get in the car, driving towards my place, and she starts crying, saying she just wanted to have a fun night. We had 0 fighting EVER in this relationship, and we didn't even have one this night. She was just emotional.

I tell her to go hang out with her friends at the bars, I'm going to my place, I'll pick her up afterwards.

For some reason, this makes her cry more and she starts shouting "I just wanted a fun night" and going well over 40 mph through campus on a Friday Night at about 11:30. So I was scared for my life.

I ask her to pull over so I can take CyRide home. She complies. I get out, and as I start walking towards the CyRide stop, turn around, and she slams on the gas and starts coming at me. Slammed on the brakes as she got close. Tells me "**** you, have a nice night" and leaves.

(Keep in mind, we literally had no fighting the entire night, or in the relationship.)

I wake up the next morning with 4 missed voicemails, the first three saying **** you, and 4th apologizing and saying she's crazy and it's best we aren't together for my sake.

Somewhat similar story for me. I went on a date with this girl I knew at ISU and all she wanted to do was ask me questions about some other mutual friend we had, who she apparently had a crush on. No matter how many times I tried to change the conversation to something else. Longest date of my life. I could not wait to be done. Pretty hard on the ego, but I met my wife a bit later and it all worked out for the best.

Met her a few months later while with my wife (girlfriend at the time) and she did not seem very happy about me dating someone. Her plan A fell apart and now she had no plan B either. I'm so glad to be done with dating!

Don't be embarrassed by using a dating service. Sometimes options to meet people are limited...more-so the older you get. And sometimes they're a blessing: nearly 22 years ago a friend talked me into responding to an ad in the Des Moines Register "Datemaker", and I ended up going on a really bad blind date with this guy (beer & ice cream - long story). Nice guy, no sparks. Except he didn't give up easy, and I married him a little over a year later. Just celebrated our 20th in December. :)

Love those awkward first meeting stories. I met my wife through a mutual friend and she was pretty nervous, did not talk much, and managed to knock over a drink right on my lap. I though she was the rudest person I'd ever met. Our friend ended up giving me her number saying she wanted me to call her back and we've been together now for 18 years (married 13).

I have told mine here before. First date, guy took me to a modestly priced restaurant/bar for dinner (it was years ago, I believe my meal cost about $4). Then pretty much demanded we go somewhere for sex since he was paying. I walked out and was going to catch a bus or taxi home. He caught up to me and was punching me when the bouncers from the bar came out and beat the crap out of him before calling the cops. Only first date where I ended up with a broken nose, and my date ended up in worse condition.

Damn, so sad that happened to you. :sad:
 
I had a thread like this a few summers ago.

Best by far in that thread was the one that got it shut down. Won't go into detail, but a poster was caught getting a blowie by the chicks military dad if I remember correctly

Ooops!
There's a country song about a dad sending his daughter out on a date, and he tells the boy (paraphrased) "I'll see you when you get back...I'll still be sitting here cleaning this gun". We were teasing our youngest son (a Capt. in the USMC) about his four girls, and maybe displaying his gun collection in the living room. His response was priceless: "Gun collection, hell...I'm going to park a damn tank in the front yard". :)
 
Wait, who's doing what to who now? Because there are two very distinct images in my head right now and one is slightly more disturbing than the other.

I haven't had any bad dates, but earlier this year I asked this girl I thought was cute out and she said yes, but that she wasn't interested in anything serious. I was ok with that since I've been in a long distance relationship before and didn't want to continue one after I graduated. She texts me the next day saying that while she thought I was really nice she had panicked the day before when she said yes and actually didn't want to go on the date. Obviously not bad compared to other peoples' here, but that was a bit of a shot to my ego.

Dang, Cubs. That chick was tripolar!
 
My worst was all my fault. I'm far from a tree hugging environmentalist, but people who litter really **** me off. Nothing worse imo, than seeing trash lying all over the place.

Anyways, back in high school I took this girl out, we went for pizza, then a movie. After the movie, we were driving around and she asked if we could drive through McDonald's for a sundae. No problem, I grabbed some fries and a drink for myself. After eating and finishing the drink, I always just throw the trash in the large bag and set it in the back seat for later disposal. After I do this, she grabs the bag from the back seat, puts her sundae cup in it and chucks it out the window.

Luckily no one was behind me, because I slammed on the brakes an threw it into reverse and backed up to where she threw out the bag. I looked at her and told her to go get the bag and bring it back. She thought I was joking when I told her to go get the bag or get out of the car for good. We argued for a minute and she finally went and picked up the bag.

Never the less, we never went on another date. I'm sure it was worse for her and I'm sure she probably still thinks I'm an ******* 25+ years later.
