Just for a laugh! What are some of your funniest/worst dating experiences?

I’m married now but what a rough road it was getting here! Haha!

Now, before I tell the story I need to add some backstory. At the time I was a night supervisor at a local store. We had this fellow coming in who would linger around the girls. At first I thought he was just an awkward dude who was trying to gather the courage to talk to them but then he started hanging out by the office while the girls were cashing out, often he would try to peek through the window to watch them handling the money. Now when this behavior started all the managers were out of town at a conference. Normally they wouldn’t ask me to kick customers out because I was only 24 at the time and in general looked like a weak little thing and I think they were worried I would get into trouble. This guy was becoming such a problem that they wanted him removed but didn’t feel it was worth calling the police so they asked me to kick him out the next time he showed up.

Next time the guy came in, I did as I was ordered and politely asked him to leave. He asked me why. I didn’t know what to say: “You’re acting creepy” didn’t seem the best approach. Having little experience with such things I explained that my managers had simply asked me to ask him to leave and in future if he wanted to know why he’d have to speak to them directly.

It was at this point he lost it. He started screaming at me that we were being racist and that this was only happening because of his race. I froze. The only other staff in store were all teenaged kids. I wanted to go and call the police because he was just screaming at me but I was worried if I left him alone he would assault one of the kids.

So I stood, faced him, and just took his abuse while not answering because I didn’t want to escalate the situation.

Eventually, he walked out.

Anyway. I join Catholic Match a few months after the ‘incident’ and the FIRST match I get is… you guessed it, the screamer.

Then I started getting messages.

He’d message me once a day. Telling me I was pretty. Asking me out. Asking me out. Asking me out. It was as if he couldn’t remember my face and then day to day as if he forgot he’d already messaged me and I hadn’t responded.

I didn’t respond because he knew where I worked for one and honestly I was a bit scared of him.

In those days you couldn’t block a user so I messaged customer support and they told me that they would ‘talk to him’ but unless he actually DID something there wasn’t much they could do. Really he was just repeatedly messaging me, not saying anything abusive but because of our ‘experience’ together it scared me. I honestly wondered if maybe he was a bit crazy.

The element of if he did clue in to where I worked he might be triggered into another rage drove me off the site. I deleted my profile and never dabbled in online dating again.

You’re thinking: That’s not a very funny story! But looking back it does make me chuckle a little bit. Hey! I yelled at her for a good solid hour! I should see if she wants to go on a date!

LOL.

So what are your worst dating experiences?
 
Oh man! Poor guy! I can’t imagine handling the stress of a first date on top of being ill!
 
I am a person with dwarfism.

Friend set me up on a blind date with her boyfriend’s best friend.

She left out one important detail, the poor guy was so uncomfortable all evening long that he barely said 4 words to me. After that, no more blind dates!!
 
Blind dates and speed dating sound so strange 🙂 I don’t think I could have ever done them.
The few dates I went on before meeting my husband
I had to tell the chaps I went out with they were very nice people but i thought of them as my brothers 😊
 
I got kicked in the shins after taking my date to the movie “Love Story” because I did not look sad enough when the main character died.
 
I had a blind date start screaming at me.

Everytime he brought up politics, I tried to change the subject but he wouldn’t let it go. I finally told him that I supported GWB, and this dude went OFF. I put money on the table for my drink, said “I hope you have a lovely evening” and I left.

There was also a date where we went to the theater and as we were coming down the stairs the heel on one of my shoes broke, and I fell down the stairs. 😆
 
Blind date in college. She was from the town I grew up in when I was a kid, thought had moved many years beforehand. I thought we’d have lots to talk about. Well, she was opera, ballet, and classical music. I was football, the Rolling Stones, and Playboy magazine. After two minutes of conversation, we couldn’t find anything in common for the rest of the night. Never even saw her again in 4 years. Guess we were both relieved. One of the three worst night of my life.
 
I’ve never had a bad date, either, not because I’ve never been on a date. I’ve been on lots of them, but I’ve been with the same man since I was sixteen. Sure, some days are better than others, but we’ve never had a bad time, never had a fight. 😍 After all these years, we love each other more and more.

Aw. That’s sweet. 🙂 I married rather late in life so went through a looot of dating. And for the majority of my dating time I was non-Catholic and, in fact, non-religious! haha! So I’ve had my fair share of experiences.
