    I went to a bar with a guy once. It was so awkward because we didn't really have anything to talk about so we just sat there drinking and looking around/watching tv. We went back to my apartment (we lived in the same complex on campus) and sat with my roommate and her parents watching a movie awkwardly until he got a phone call (supposedly) and had to leave. I was just glad that it was over! Haha.

  • Oh my gosh. My worst date was with this guy my mom set me up with.
    All he talked about was getting drunk and doing drugs and getting caught for underage drinking. I bailed in the middle of the date and said my dad was sick. I left right in the middle of the movie. I thought it was hysterical after I left.
    Needless to say, I never let my mom set me up on a date again. Ever.

  • I wouldn't necessarily call it a date, but it was a realllly bad night.  In college, one of my best guy friends had one of his friends visiting for the weekend and there was a huge party going on.  The guy was really cute and a REALLY good dancer and we ended up going back to my room together.  We fooled around and he was AWFUL, but was acting like this huge stud.  Afterwards I wanted him to leave so I kept saying how tired I was.  Instead, he hooked his ipod up to my speakers and started playing music of the band he was in to show off and they were awful.  It was like screamo music (which I can't tolerate to begin with) but even worse.  I finally said I was going to sleep and he's like "ok that's fine, we can go to sleep".  And then fell asleep NEXT TO ME!  I kept trying to call my roommate under the pillow (on speed dial) so she'd call back and see what's up and I could fake this whole "omg what happened?! I'll be right there!" kinda thing but she never called back.  The next morning he was all "omg I really like you, let's hang out more, I can come visit next weekend" and I had to explain that I wasn't interested.  Awkward.
  • I went out with this guy in college. He took me to dinner, we both agreed we were having a great date. We went back to his place to watch a movie and he fell asleep. He started snoring. I called a friend and left his house while he was still asleep.

    Years later, I invite my FI ( back when we were dating) to watch a movie and fell asleep on him. He turned off the TV woke me up and left. He called me when he got home. And the rest is history.

  • It wasn't a date-it was a slightly random college hookup. I went to a friend's house party, I was newly single after getting dumped by my HS boyfriend...and I was determined to get some. I brought a friend of a friend back to my room, we were fooling around...and when I got to the below the stairs moment...it was tiny. Really tiny. We were both rather intoxicated so we sort of just phased out the action. 

    We both fell asleep, and a few hours later I heard him wake up and I assumed he just went to the bathroom. A few minutes went by and I heard the front door slam and I looked out my window to see him running across the street (his apartment was right across from mine) wearing just the snowflake throw blanket that was on my couch. His pants were still in my room, along with his shoes and everything else. 

    The next day he knocked on my door and sheepishly asked for his stuff back and returned the blanket. He apparently woke up, went to the bathroom and got really confused and didn't know where he was (our apartments were identical so I can see how it might seem really strange when you are drunk) and he didn't know where his clothes could be, so he just ran out. I never told my roommates just where that snowflake blanket had been.

  • I had two dates that wound up in break-ups. As in, I thought it was just a normal day and they were planning on breaking up with me. The worst (and best because it woke my ass up to his emotionally abusive ways) was my most recent ex. We were over at his house watching TV and he broke up with me. Then he wouldn't let me leave and dragged me to his brothers house so he could water their plants. I really don't know why I didn't just "go for a walk" then go to my Aunt and Uncle's house right down the street from his or just walk off while he was in his brother's backyard and call someone to come get me. That's how much of a hold he had on me. He was horrible.

  • I went on a date with a guy that was older than me while I was home for winter break from college.

    He came to my house in his re-done 1980s camero. That thing was loud, ugly, and all my neighbors looked out their windows. I was already embarrassed because the guy liked me way more than I liked him, and I was also mortified by the car he brought to impress me, so I drove us on our date. Turns out while we were gone half my neighbors came out to look at/laugh at the car...

    We saw I Am Legend, and being the huge animal lover that I am, that move broke my heart. If you haven't seen it, spoiler alert, Will Smith kills his dog (I mean, he has to, but still, heart breaking). It was probably my least favorite movie of all time, but at least it was better than our dinner after where all he did was talk about his car and being a chef and calling my sorority a cult (which was not OK).

    After I got back home he tried to kiss me and I bailed. It was rude, but I got to play the "my parents are watching" crap. It was horrible. He continued to contact me while I was back at school and would visit my dorm. He was all excited for valentines day and I lied to him and told him I was sick. The kid showed up with soup and roses and I felt like a huge ass because in reality I had another date.

    He now dates another girl I know; and she tells people that I'm jealous of their relationship. Um, sure...

  • One day during college, I got a text from my fi (then just bf) that he wanted me to come over right away after classes. It sounded urgent, so I ran over. I then spent the next hour watching him and his friend play super smash bros. I wasn't allowed to play, as I suck at that type of game. At some point I fell asleep. When I woke up, I dragged him out of the room and seriously yelled at him for it. The funniest thing (now) is that he was completely confused as to why I was mad. He's a gamer and had no concept that watching someone play a repetitive game while not being allowed to play would be boring to me. He honestly thought I'd enjoy it. I sorted that idea out real fast.
  • I was set up on date. We were suppose to meet up at 7 for drinks and dinner. I show up and the guy was about an hour late. Just as I was about to leave he walks in. He orders a drink and starts talking to me with barely a sorry. After about 15 minutes I asked if we were going to stay there for dinner or go to another place. He told me that he wasn't hungry because he knew he was running late he just picked up fast food on his way downtown. He then made a comment about how girls don't eat on the first anyway so I wouldn't mind. I finally ordered food from the bar. As the bill came he told me he would pick up the drinks but since he didn't eat he didn't want to pay for my dinner. Just all the way around he was a class act.

  • Oooh this is a fun question!

    I think one of my worst ones was with this guy who lived on my floor in my dorm sophmore year of college. He was nice and really cute/hot but kinda blah. We got to be friends and were flirty, we kissed once and went on a lunch date to a classic restaurant in our college town.

    He is SUPER athletic and at that point was really into triathalons which was cool cause I was a swimmer/biker/runner I just didn't put them together. Well the guy literally had 2% body fat.

    I ordered a triple decker grilled cheese sandwich. He ordered a salad with NO DRESSING. I knew we couldn't go on a 2nd date. He called a bunch of times but I wasn't feeling him. All he talked about was fitness crap. I would have felt like a massive fatass.

    Interestingly enough he randomly met one of my best friends from HS at a wedding the next year and they dated for like a year and a half. It was a little weird.

  • So it wasn't really a date, but I was out drinking with a friend of mine and we ran into one of her guy friends who had a friend with him. We all starting hanging out and went to a couple different bars. The guys friend was constantly hitting on me. He kept telling me how beautiful my hands were and on and on. I found him extremely annoying. I kept thinking to myself isn't he suppose to be getting cuter the drunker I get it? But he wasn't he just got worse looking. When the night was over he insisted in walking me to my door and tried to kiss me I just turned my head really quick so he missed. He wanted my number so I gave it to him just to be nice but saved his under "Do Not Answer"
  • I could go on and on about all of the "dates" with my ex in college.  It was about 2 1/2 years of an abusive relationship and he seriously had a drinking problem.  Aside from that.....

    We went to a bar for my friend's bachelorette almost 3 years ago.  I was the only single one out of my friends but I figured I would bring a date....just didn't know who.  One of my dare cards at the bachelorette was to give a guy my number.  I ended up giving it to the barback at the bar and he went in the corner and called me to make sure it was my number.  He was cute and my friends were pushing it on him that I didn't have a date to the wedding and he should be my date.  The following week we texted all week and went out to lunch and talked about whether or not he was going to come to the wedding. 

    He ended up being my date to the wedding.  Since he lived about 15 mins from the hotel where the reception was we met there, then he drove us to church.  It was very weird to be in church with someone I hardly knew (esp because neither of us are chuch-goers).  In between church and the reception I went to the bar with my friends' husbands (the girls were in the WP and I wasn't) and he came too so it was a bit awkward.  I had already reserved a hotel room for the night but was able to cancel it because he said he had drill the next morning and had to leave early and I had to work the next day at 11am and it was over an hour away.  For some odd reason we made out at the wedding and were very flirty, yet he was texting someone else all night (don't know why I didn't say anything). Before the end of the wedding he left because he supposedly had drill.  The next day I texted him as I was walking into work just saying "hope drill didn't kick your butt this morning" and he told me he totaled his car on the way home. I'm not sure if I believe it, but I asked if he was ok and he never texted back. That was the end of that.  Then my brother's FI was looking through my pictures a few months ago and brought it to my attention that he goes into her work all the time (she's a bartender).
  • I went to high school with this guy. I moved away and we got in touch over email. We did the whole IM thing and texting, and decided to meet up when I visited my mom. It turned out that he was a really nice guy, but the feelings weren't there for me. He kissed me and I wanted to gag. It was my first kiss (late bloomer, I know, but I was super shy until after HS.) Horrible! We ended up making out for hours and messing around. I just didn't have the heart to tell him I wasn't into him. I actually got locked out of my moms house since she was at the beach for the night, so I had to go back to his house. It sucked. haha. Then he wanted me to meet his parents the next day, so we did. I didn't have any clean clothes and had to shower at his house. Good thing I had makeup with me. His parents were completely rude and didn't even say hi to me. Overall, it was a bad idea, and it makes me cringe thinking about it. :(

    I met a guy online and thought he was a bit old for me, but agreed to meet him just for some interesting conversation (he was articling and I was interested in law at the time). We met at a coffee shop and he bought me a drink. We started out sitting across from each other at a table, then he suggested moving to a couch so he could show me some photos of his recent vacation. We sat next to each other on the couch and he pulled out all these pics of himself shirtless on a beach, commenting on how he`s super into fitness and in really good shape (honestly, I was NOT impressed!) Then he started talking about how I had such nice muscles and he put an arm around me and went in for a kiss. I dodged it, and said shakily (this had never happened to me before!) that I had to go. He got up too, and was like, 'Don`t I get a hug?' Um, NO!
