What's the strangest date you've ever had?

[A10CalGal]

These are some great stories! I'm trying think of what to share...it seems I've had so many bizzar experiences that I've semi-blocked from memory.

 

Here's one I can fully recall: About a year before I met my hubby, a guy I worked with & got along with well told me he knows a guy he thinks I would really like. I was kinda in that zone where I was ready to meet someone, so I was keeping my eyes open to possibilities. This work guy is very smart & seemed to understand where I was coming from, so I was actually quite interested to find out more about mystery dude. He's a mechanical engineer, owns his home, just moved back to the area from San Luis Obispo, drives a Porsche, blah blah blah. Over all a very nice guy per my work friend.

 

So, I agree to meet mystery dude & tell work guy it's cool to pass on my work cell. Mystery dude calls, it just so happens he works not far from my work & we set up a lunch date. Our conversation was great & felt easy, so I was looking forward to meeting him.

 

So of course, he pulls up in his black Porsche, so I know it's him (well, me & the whole front office!)....I run outside and get in the car. I immediately think he is super handsome in a Tom Cruise type of way. All giddy sitting in Tom's Porsche...We cruise down to the local deli, get out of the car...and BAM! it hits my - the mystery dude who I've made perfect in our 5 minutes together is a full 6 inches shorter than me. Totally boob height. I wanted to cry.

 

I did actually try to get past the height thing. We went out on a few more dates & he was a really great guy. Oh yeah, until he started obsessively talking about his ex-fiance. And how he was going to spend Christmas with her family. Ummmm....yeah....I'll talk to you later Tom. Short asshole!

OMG!!!!!!!!

I went through a horrible break-up in college and one of my co-workers (I worked at a restaurant) decided to set me up with one of her friends.

 

He picked me up in a small, ratty truck that was so filthy inside I could hardly breathe. We then went to an incredibly crappy Mexican restaurant for dinner where he proceeded to talk about how much money he had and took every opportunity to pull out his wallet and show me the $100 bills inside. (Which, it should be noted, not only DIDN'T impress me at all, but mainly made me wonder why someone with so much money would drive such a filthy car and take a date to cheap restaurant.) Oh, and he was about 15 years older than me.

 

After dinner he says "well, I was planning on taking you to the park, but since it's raining, how 'bout we go to the mall and you can try on some clothes for me and I'll buy you a new outfit". WTF?!

 

For some reason, we continue on to the mall (I was only 20!) but I tell him I will not be trying on clothes. He says "okay, there's a pet store there and I need to get some food for my ferrets anyway". Knowing that ferrets are some of the dirtiest animals to have as pets, I said "did you say you have ferretSS? Where do you keep them?" He tells me he has 6 and he refuses to keep them in a cage because he thinks it's inhumane. So, they just run around the house.

 

After continually telling him that I don't need any new clothes and that I will not try anything on for him, we make our way to the petstore where he uses, what else, a $100 bill to buy a $10 bag of ferret food.

 

He asked me to come over, but the vision of ferrets scurrying throughout his house was enough to send me over the edge. As if I didn't have enough reason to be skeezed out before he mentioned the ferrets!

 

Never saw him again.

 

Geez, I love my FI!!!!

So instead of being a crazy cat lady, he was a crazy ferret man.

 

Have you read the ferret thread?

I was set up by a "friend" when I was about 17...he told me so many great things about this guy and how we'd be great together and blah blah blah....what he neglected to tell me was that he was ugly as sin, a total perv and completely clueless...

 

I had talked to him on the phone a few times and he seemed like a nice guy so I asked him if he wanted to come over for dinner and to watch a movie or something.

 

His dad dropped him off at my house (because he was 19 and didn't drive yet...not cool when you're 17 LOL) and when he got out of the car I almost died. He had the BIGGEST nose and the BIGGEST lips I've EVER seen in my life. But whatever, I figured that I could deal with it for the night if he was a nice guy.

 

My parents had asked if we wanted to have dinner with them that night which was fine with both of us...so we sat down for dinner and everything was cool...we were all chit chatting and whatever. Then he got up to go to the washroom.....HUGE boner right in my mom's face when he stood up...OMG I thought she was going to die! No one said anything but you could just tell what everyone was thinking once he left the room.

 

So whatever...dinner ended...parents went out...and I'd left the movie up to him to pick up...he brought over Full Metal Jacket...now for those of you who have not seen said movie it's about the effect of war on a bunch of Vietnam vets...and it's kind of twisted...totally not a date movie, I think I covered my eyes for half of it. Anyways during the whole movie he kept trying to sit super close to me..e.very time I'd (very obviously) shift over he'd move closer, and he kept trying to grab my hand but he was sneaky about it "oh let me see your ring..." Ugh gross!

 

Anyways, I finally got fed up and moved over to the other couch....guess who followed? Totally creepy. At one point I turned to the side table to grab my drink, and when i turned back around he was getting ready to make out with my ear...and then when I gave him a look he FLIPPED on me like there was something wrong with ME.

 

I'd had enough at that point and told him to call his dad to pick his sorry ass up.

 

Worst ever.

Oh, wow, I just thought of a WAY better hell date!!

 

I'm probably about 27, living the happy single life, going out with friends, having a good time...you know, just chillin. I meet a guy one night out at a bar (I know, I know!) and we chat it up. I give him my digits, and he actually calls the next day. We set up a dinner date for the following weekend. I'm funny about strangers coming to my house, and I lived a bit out of downtown, so I drove to town, parked my car at a friends & caught a taxi to the restaurant. I was standing in front of the restaurant just waiting, and waiting & waiting. Nothing. So I finally go inside and there is a total scene going on at the bar inside...and date guy is all up in the middle of it! I'm talking body shot's type of scene - in a fricking sushi bar?? WTF? I'm like, yeah, ok...and I start to leave. He comes sprinting out the door "oh there you are! c'mon lets go sit & chat & eat sushi!" I don't know why I didn't keep walking...but I didn't. We sat down to dinner & this guy was just amazing. I mean I can drink a lot of alcohol for a girl, and I'm certainly no one to judge. But this guy was drinking so much, so fast, it was embarrassing. He was so drunk by the middle of dinner he was slurring his words & his eyes were barely open. I got up to go to the bathroom, and when I came back he was seriously passed the F out on the table! I was livid. The waiter wanted me to pay & get the guy out of the restaurant! I was like "hell no" - so I pulled the guy's wallet out of his pants, pulled out his Visa, gave it to the waiter & got the F outta there.

 

So, needless to say, I never dated a guy I met in a bar again.

haha I love this part. That's great.

My gf was just complaining to me today about men. I was like "You do realize everyone you date you have met in a bar." What a shocker they end up being a loser come date #2. Geez.
