Women's worst dates
Want to feel more confident about your past dating blunders? Here are some of the worst dates women have experienced.
The cheapskate
Cecily, 38, met a physician at a holiday party. On the first date he took her to a Japanese restaurant using a two-for-one coupon. The second date, he took her to the same place, again on coupon. "On our third date, which I probably shouldn't have gone on, but he made me laugh, he conveniently forgot his wallet in his sports car."
Tessa, 29, considers Matt a friend who won't become a boyfriend because of his poor dating skills such as calling her at the last minute. "It's always like 'yo, you coming over to my place?'," she says noting that the only time they went out to dinner they went dutch.
The breakup
Rhonda, 20, was excited to rent a nice car to visit her long-distance boyfriend on his birthday — especially since they hadn't seen each other in two months. She accompanied him on errands, they saw a "strangler movie," and at dinner at a nice restaurant, he admitted to infidelity and pled for her forgiveness. Rhonda obliged. He called the next day and broke it off with her. "That was a total date from hell," she says.
The needy
Susan, 39, went on a date with a guy who couldn't stop talking about another woman. "He talked a lot about a lady friend of his, their emotional bond and admitted the woman was married and lived in another country." He kept talking about her the whole night. "It was obvious he was more comfortable with his quasi-fantasy relationships than face-to-face dating."
The embarrassment
Sarah, 33, was impressed when Phil told her how much his suit cost. "Later, we were at a nice bar when I reached over him to grab a napkin and accidentally spilled the entire glass of shrimp cocktail all over his chest and lap." Luckily this one still had a happy ending: Phil did ask Sarah out again.
The synchronicity
Mindy, 36, wasn't excited to go on a second date with a guy, and her instinct was confirmed when she took him to a barbecue given by her friends. The two were surprised when they walked into the party and he knew most of the guests, including her best friend — whom he had gone out with before. "I had too much information on him from my friend's description of her date with him."
The amateurs
Monica, 40, knew she wasn't interested in a guy she met at a speed dating event by the end of the date. "He insisted twice on cracking my back after our goodbye hug," she says, noting she declined his offer for a back adjustment and a second date.
Sheryl, 32, was thrilled when a hunky jock asked her out to a dinner theater. The date lost luster when he sang off key along with the musical production, louder than the actors on stage. The topper was his insistence at the end of the night to give her a "little kiss" which she obliged. "It was the worst, sloppiest, saliva filled kiss I ever hand in my entire life."
Patty, 41, found her blind date likeable and agreed to go to another restaurant with him for a change of atmosphere. "He ran into his ex-girlfriend, and then leaves for twenty minutes to chat with her. He came back and affectionately touched me, telling me to play along in front of her to make her jealous." Patty said no and left — quickly.
Julie, 39, knew when she first met her blind date that he must have lied about his age. That was enough for her. "The clincher was when he pointed to a young girl sitting down wearing low-slung jeans with a shiny thong and suggested I go ask her where she got her underwear!"
