I've got myself a date tonight - 1st one for ages & it's made me cast my mind back to some of the disasters I've had over the years.

Many moons ago, long before I got married, I joined 1 of those dating group thingies (this was before the days of internet dating sites). The organiser, in her wisdom thought I'd be perfectly suited to a bloke she had on her books.

So, arrangements were duly made with said bloke. He suggested we met at Hintlesham Hall (a really, really, really posh & equally expensive place).

He turned up & I know you shouldn't judge a book by it's cover but not only was he not very easy on the eye he had zero personality :eek:

I then had to spend the next couple of hours or so trying to make polite conversation, I think we managed to talk about the beautiful surroundings for the best part of the evening. Boy, was I glad when the evening ended.

So guys & gals what are your 1st date disasters?
 
When I was 17 I went on a date with a guy to the cinema. Also no personality. I tried to kiss me half want through the film, I just put my hand up and said watch the film. lol.

I had one recently, and the guy said he had something really really important to ask me.. it turned out he needed to be assured that my daughter is white because - in his words - he wouldn't have anything to do with me if she wasn't :eek: Then he went on to tell me how he had caused someone's death but was acquitted of manslaughter :eek: Honestly, you couldn't make it up!

I decided that night I would do anything to get my safe Dave back, and the racist murderer would be my last first date EVER!!!!
 
PMSL, wow ZoZo, still got his number? What a catch, lol.

When i was 16, i went on a date to the cinema and the guy locked his keys in the car. Luckily, though embarassingly, some of his mates were there too and they managed to break into the car to retrieve them.

He did it about three more times that year, ha ha, but we're still together seven years later and i have his spare keys!
 
Not quite a 1st date but still.... Had been out already with this bloke a couple of times & quite liked him. We'd both gone out with our own set of friends one night when I bumped into him. He was at the bar but didn't get me a drink because "it was his friends round & he was paying" :eek: I sooo went off him after that, lol
 
One of my friends went out for a dinner on a date with someone and while she was talking to him.......wait for it....a bit of food shot out her mouth and landed on his arm!!!
.....obviously he saw it...she knew she'd done it...he knew she'd done it lol and so they was both staring at the bit of food thinking 'oh sh*t' ....so what does she do??.....she turns round and says....''oh i thought you might like to save that bit for later!!!!'' pmsl :lol:
 
LOL, that reminds me of the time I was out to dinner with... how shall I say this... a distinguished older gentleman... I had just taken a sip of wine (well maybe a large gulp!) and he said something funny that made me burst out laughing and I (accidentally) spat wine all over him, it was literally all over his glasses and running down his forehead. And the worst bit was, we were out with his two very demure teenage daughters at the time :lol:
 
I got stung by a wasp on a first date once. It was October so it was a bit sleepy and you know how dangerous they are at that stage and it flew down the back of my dress! I swear I am so glad we were at his place (I had known him a while as a friend of a friend before anyone tells me how rash that is) as I whipped my dress off so fast Superman would have been hard pushed to beat me:o:o:o! He was an imperfect gentleman in that he didn't turn his back which obviously he should have done but he didn't jump me (not sure if that was good or bad really!) but we were together for about a year after that so I can't have minded too much at the time. Remember though everyone bicarb for bees, vinigar for vasps! He taught me that and it really does work! Lx
 
My friend was going on a first date with a guy and he met her at the bottom of her stairs, as she said "hello" she fell right down the whole flight of stairs!! how embarrassing!!! x
 
I went on a date a few years ago with this guy I had fancied for 2 or 3 years, he took me to this ultra cool club in his ultra cool car and kept buying me wine ( I get p****ed after two glasses) anyway didn't wanna look like a lightweight so kept accepting them. I felt okay so kept drinking, that was until the nausea washed over me I went to the toilet and puked my guts up, went back out after ten minutes and pretend there was a long queue thats why I was gone so long. Stupid me kept drinking until it was hometime WELL...In his lowered BMW bumped along the motorway at top speed I wanna puke again had to ask him to stop the car, and angled myself at the back of the car and spewed my guts up and got back in feeling much better but very embarrassed, we drove to my house and he walked me to my door and KISSED ME!!! Urgh I couldn't believe it...surely he had known I was sick! We went on several more dates (no drink!) until his girlfriend rang me (another story). I still see him to this day (his gym is near my house) and he never mentioned it but still asks me out. NUTTER!:rolleyes:
 
I was 14, the boy much older, so I didn't wanna make a fool out of me.

We decided to go to meet some friends of his, and I could borrow his bike. The pedals had some kind of attachment where you had to stick in your feet. Unfortunately I had never tried that before, so I got up, started moving, but struggled to get my feet in, this resulted in the bike stopped moving, when I had finally attached my feet. So with my feet firmly attached to the pedals I looked up and slowly, VERY slowly, started tilting to the side, I ended up on the ground with my feet still in those darn things.... We never got to a second date....

ha ha ha thats so funny! :lol:
 
My friend has a great story or a first date that involved her and the guy sitting opposite each other at a table in a resteraunt when without indicating what she was doing she bent down to retrive her handbag which was one the floor and as she was trying to look interested in his conversation she simply didnt look what she was doing and headbutted the table. Stunned as she was she forgot the handbag and he carried on the conversation. He didnt mention it, neither did she and they continued their meal!

TO him it would have looked like she randomly headbutted a table for no reason!
 
I had a blind first date once who i met in a pub and had pre-arranged for a friend to call my mobile 20 mins after arriving to give me a get out clause. Obviously he was clearly no looker so my phone rang and i answerd..."Really?! Oh NO!, i'll on my way"

Seriously despite my stage school upbringing it was obvious what i had done but he took it graciously as i escaped!
 
i was on a 1st date with a guy once we were just in a pub having a quiet drink pub fairly busy but not too busy so he says im just nipping to the loo me thinking nothing of it sat there sipping my vino until i looked over at the bar saw him leaning over the bar talking to the barman me thought oh hes buyin another round next thing barman goes away comes back hands him a toilet roll OVER the bar in full view of everyone as he proceeds to return to the toilet, toilet roll in hand! and i sit mortified for the next half hour till he returns! lol
 
When I was in my teens went on a date to the cinema and just as the lights dimmed and as everyone stopped talking he pipes up in a loud dead rough Yorkshire accent (yep I was young and stupid) "Last night when I met ya, ah fancied the pants off ya" mortified I told him to shut up, and everyone in the cinema were laughing their heads off. I was HUMILIATED lol I spent the whole film fuming.

He was lucky you hung around for that long!
How long did that romance last for??
 
I've just remembered another time on a date. Not a 1st date but funny now still the same.

I'd been going out with this bloke for a few weeks & bless him he was a bit naive about some things. (although he was 24/25 or so) Anyway, we went for a meal in a restaurant. The waiter came over to take our drinks order. I asked for a wine & he asked for.......a hot chocolate :eek: in a proper restaurant, with our meal!!!

Well, you could see the kitchen from where we were sitting & for the rest of the evening the kitchen staff took the proverbial & whenever I looked that way, they raised a cup to me as if to say cheers. The bloke had his back to them so was in ignorant bliss!

As if that wasn't enough, when the waiter came to take our food order, I ordered mine & then the bloke said what he wanted, including the dessert he wanted. Hmm, he had forgotten that you don't order your dessert with your starter & main. (he'd done that before & I'd told him they come back for the dessert order).
