Stupid Things You Have Done On A First Date ......
 

Now I am usually pretty fucking good at the game, even though I am not much of a "dating" type of guy, but being myself usually works the way it is supposed to - i.e. you work out whether who you are with is really worth moving on with.

I ONLY take girls on dates that I already KNOW I really like, and there may be something there, so it does not happen very often at all.

Now, NOT being yourself is fraught with danger, AND usually does NOT end well.

I took a lovely young lady for dinner on Friday last, and had been looking forward to it for several days.

Booked the best Japanese Restaurant in these parts, picked her up (as a gentleman does), on-time, and happily waited the 10 minutes time or so she was late and then we arrived. Early.

Sauntered into a bar to have a pre-dinner beverage, and I asked what whe would like to drink....

She said for me to order first, she was thinking.

So, wanting to seem a little classy and refined, I ordered a Grey Goose, extra dirty. NOTE, I am NOT known for drinking martinis, EVER. Idiot.

Barman looked at me No Grey Goose mate.

Make it Belvedere.

No Belvedere mate.

Level 42 ?

Nope, we have Absolut or Smirnoff only mate

So 3 times I went to bat as an absolute wanker and 3 times I swung the bat and missed, even while the whole time knowing I was acting like a total tool.

So I said, "I cannot believe I have just tried 3 times to be a dickhead and succeeded brilliantly each time, give me a glass of water, it's all I deserve."

To wit my companion burst out laughing and the guy behind the bar chuckled and said, "It's OK mate, you did it bloody well" and proceeded to make me an Absolut "Extra Dirty" on the house.

Now LUCKILY for me, "going public", and the fact that when we joined the queue for the restaurant, some moron in front of us said to his friend "Get me hamburger will ya, I gotta go do a piss". before stumbling off, DID help me recover somewhat.

Nothing like some numbnut doing that in one of the best Japanese Restaurants around !!! Thank god for most other men - it makes it SO easy to shine.

Anyway, I got over the faux pas and things went VERY well.

This one will get a second date, and maybe even a third or more :winkwink:

So how have you screwed or nearly screwed things up ?

:thumbsup

Too long... :(!

I wouldnt really call that screwing anything up. I once went out with a girl that had soo much fake tan golden brown shit on, that she fucked up the leather on my passenger seat.

Like I am going to shorten my life just to make numbnuts like you happy.

:321GFY

Ha ha ha

Reminds me I took a girl out once LONG ago and when she stood up from the pristine white restuarant chair, the imprint of her legs ALL THE WAY UP TO HEAVEN from the fake tan shit were there for all to see.

Did love the mini-skirt she had on though ;-)

:1orglaugh :winkwink: :thumbsup :pimp

hum, stupid things on a first date... let me see...

oh here's one!

new to the whole dating thing I agreed to a blind date. turned up to the cafe with my gay best friend sitting on the table next to me pretending not to know me but there to bitch slap the guy if he turned out to be a freak.

boy walks up, very nice looking and well dressed. hear gay best friend hiss 'hot, nice shoes!' and since things looked like they would go ok he left. stupid thing? I agreed to a second date.

spent 4 years (good years I should say) with a guy who was possibly more interested in my gay best friend!

never trust nice shoes.....

I zipped my shirt up in my fly, and when it hit the lights in the club it glowed, and everyone saw it. No one told me for 3 or 4 mins.

Tried to do a line in a convertable. (Long time ago)

Called a girl by the wrong name repeatedly, because she reminded me of someone.

Took an alcoholic to a 5 star restaurant, all comped, and let her drink.

Gave a girl a fake name and forgot which one I gave her when we went out.
(2 min date)

Got caught kissing a girls sister in the bar, just as we were about to go to my place.(and I had been chasing her for a month)

I got tons.

Ha ha !

Sneaky bitch !

Mental not to self: If I EVER take Verity anywhere, make it somewhere private, with no close by tables, and just to be sure immediately slap any guys sitting by themselves within 50 yards.

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ah aha ha ha

Just fell off my chair.

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

damn... busted!

Love ya babe !

xoxoxox

:winkwink: :thumbsup

Went on a date with a girl i'd be chasing for many months and was so nervous whilst at the restaurant, that I had trouble finding my mouth when eating and drinking.

Wine and pasta all over my *lucky* shirt :1orglaugh

Ended up on many many more dates with her :thumbsup

I had two friends that went to my highschool who were themselves best friends. One day, one of the dudes went crazy and murdered the other guy. (extremly sad, but bare with me). (Hes caught and in jail etc etc). So comming home from his wake I had a date that evening. I was so in shock that this happened that, upon meeting the girls parents, they asked me how i was, and I told them the entire story in my current state of disbelief; almost in a matter of fact tone. Well needless to say that date didnt go to well as her parents rang her cell phone the entire evening. I look back at that evening and i say to myself, "that was the dumbest thing I have EVER done."
unbeliveable...

Stupid thing? me and my friend left the guy at Mc Donalds while on a group date he looks very aweful..Our friends love what happened coz they didn't like the guy too.

I let her pay for her dinner on a first date.

It was only after I kept insisting I would, and she would insist that she would... finally I said "okay, you can pay your half." She gave me a blank stare and said, basically, "Let me give you some advice, k? Never let a lady pay for her meal."

I was so stunned I didn't know what to say ... so I calmly looked down at the bill and told her her share .. then added "Oh, and throw in another five for your share of the tip."

After being the bitch of the year, you bet she was going to end up paying her share. Not another word was said until I walked her to her car and as I was walking away, she scolded me for not waiting until she was "safely" in her car! I just laughed and walked away.

Needless to say, I never called her and there was no 2nd date
:)

I'm sure I have dated her. ( or at least 20 girls just like her)
It sounds like the same girl I left at the VooDoo lounge.



I gave the bartender $40 and told him to get her a cab if she comes looking for me.
If she doesn't, keep the $40.

what was so bad about that?

i farted loud on my first date. i never met her again. it came out somehow by itself

Why should you date just ask for what you want :) and you will get it!

You sharted!!! :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

good one LOL :thumbsup

Are you gonna get to ROOT?

Nice story Linds

hehe...get a couple more dates in so we can all go out when i get there

It is too too long

Yeah ur definately right CTB being a gentleman and honesty is always a good thing.....i would have to say the worst first date i ever had was one whereby i took a girl i had liked for ages out to a nice restaurant , which went great, but after about another 4 hours of drinking and going to a club had a friend (male) of mine came up kissed me on the cheek and told me with a serious face that "the test results were inconclusive and that i have to go back and test for other stds"......i was so embarrassed, and i ended up going home alone that nigth not even sharing a taxi :error

I'm enjoying reading these.. Ah men are so cute!

I got nicked once the first time I went out with a girl!

I knew she liked me a lot when she was waiting in the police station when they let me out in the morning!

The stupid thing i did, thta frightened away my boyfriend was showing him my diary where all my friends were writing good thing about me. THat was school and very stupid. He probably thought i was too small for him and never called me again.

I have stupid bike.

Life is good.

:winkwink: :thumbsup :1orglaugh :pimp

But aren't you happily married ?

:1orglaugh :winkwink: :1orglaugh :winkwink: :1orglaugh

ooooooooh. She tried the old BAIT & SWITCH :1orglaugh ... I just don't say anything, and expect the man to shell it out on the first date. But if there is a second time around, I've passed the waiter my credit card ahead of time just because "it's my turn". Some men have actually been insulted though.

Hehe you seem to be a pretty cool guy......

great story, and I think you handled the situation very well :)

Now that is awesome.

You guys were married then for how long ?

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Oh and for the record generally - 2nd date was a huge hit without any Lindsay "wankerisms" making themselves known.

Looking forward to 3rd date immensely.

This one is a keeper, though early days yet, I am quietly optimistic.

Big words from yours truly.

Life is good.

;-)

I went to a party with a girl when I was still in high school .It was our first date .She fell asleep after about 2 or 3 hours .And I went to the other room and slept with her best friend.

These were so great, thought I'd add to it.

So I hadn't dated in a while and my girlfriend talked me into going on a blind date. (Blind dates are when you find out what your friends really think of you.)

So I'm meeting a trainer (personal trainer) at the gym. My girlfriend introduces us and we go to a local bar. I'm not into him, but we're chatting, he's chatting.

As I'm staring at his Chiclets (teeth with really bad caps) he proceeds to tell me that he has spent more $$ on his hair weave than most men spend on their cars. Couldn't tell you anything else he said after that cuz all I heard was white noise after that boastful bit.

Never saw him again and didn't speak to my girlfriend for a couple of weeks either.
