Status: offline 		I was sort of bored one day because work was done and I still had an hour to go before leaving. I worked as a mid shift manager at a local liquor store at the time and I was counting down the minutes. In walked a GORGEOUS guy about 6 foot tall, beautiful golden brown hair and a tight lean body that was lithe like a dancer. He resembled Baryshnikov and as he approached the counter it turned out that he was indeed Russian. Oh... the accent was so sexy. We started talking about Vodka and I knew a bit due to a prior job as a bartender, he said the thing he missed most from Russia was that he could always find a certain brand there. Then we started talking about Russia and before you know it the hour had passed. I told him I had to close up the store now and that I enjoyed talking to him. Before he left he asked me out and I accepted.

That Saturday he came and picked me up from my house (those were the days when people were not as paranoid) and we went to a very upscale restaurant at the beach. It was one of those piano bar type where you were taken to your table by a guy in a tux who then pulled your chair out for seating. We sat at a table overlooking the beach and the night was clear and lovely. It was impressive! He ordered for me assuring me that he had been there several times and knew the best items to pick and I allowed it because when I was younger it was just normal to let a man take charge.

After ordering he took me to the piano bar and asked the singer for a few tunes, making sure I saw that he left him a 100 buck tip. Having already seen him tip the maitre d a C note I felt like this guy must have a great job... at first. We got back to the table and I was hoping we could learn about each other while we conversed. But all we talked about was how much money he had, what sort of lifestyle he enjoyed, how important it was to show that in order to insure good service. He tipped the singer, the waiter, I felt sure that any moment I might be getting a tip for being a good sounding board. Not once did he ask me about me. Did he assume I was just a clerk? Did he care whether or not I had children (I asked him if he had any). Did it even cross his mind that I was living in a nice place near the beach and must have some resources other than my job? I asked about what he did for a living. It was the one point where he became a bit sketchy saying only it was very easy to make money in this country. From that point on we only discussed money and him. I felt like I could have been the floral decoration on the table and not the woman sitting across from him in the very nice dress. Then he said he would show me how well he had done here when we got back his place and.... WHAT? lol I felt like he felt assured that by spending all that money on this date he deserved a nice evening in my vagina or lips. Phhht. I was bored stiff, and didn't care if his board was stiff or not.

I don't know how long it took to get our food... but OMG the wait seemed enormous! The food was good I guess. But I didn't taste much of it. When the bill came he had gone to the restroom or somewhere so I picked it up it was pretty close to 200 I think. I pulled 5 twenty dollar bills from my purse and slipped it into the receipt jacket. Finally the date had ended and it came to his taking me back to his place.. no way. I was not bought along with dinner. I told him I just remembered I had to get something done before I had to report back to work and so I wouldn't take him out of his way I could just grab a taxi. I had already motioned for the matri d to call one for me and very soon after our date had ended. OMG. I never saw anyone besides Mafia flash cash in the way he did. I found it repulsive, probably the inner hippie in me I guess. But I sure knew I wasn't part of his purchase for the night and no way was I going to go home with him knowing how difficult it was for me to say no when pressed into things.

It remains as my most memorable, worst, pricey date ever.

I was on a date (like 4th or 5th date) and on the way back from the ladies room ran into my ex, with whom I was still friends. We chatted for a couple of minutes and I then introduced him to my date because I didn't want to be rude or think I was hiding something. We exchanged pleasantries and the ex went back to what he was doing. The date threw a temper tantrum in the middle of the restaurant because I was still friends with my ex, demanding that I cut off all contact.

Psycho went home yesterday afternoon, with a plan to join me and some other kinksters that evening for a drink. He promptly went incommunicado. It turns out, he fell asleep and didn't wake up until after eleven. This is the man who claims he has insomnia, the big fat liar.

It's just as well that he's adorable. DATING FAIL.

Yup. I threw down enough money to cover my food, told him not to call me and took a cab home. I was so embarrassed. I couldn't believe he screamed and threw things around in the middle of a restaurant like a three year old.

Status: offline 		Ok, this was the worst single date I ever had...

Quite a number of years ago, I met someone on a vanilla site, chatted on the phone and he sounded ok. He sent a photo which looked good and he loved theater, which I do as well.

One day, my parents called me at the last minute to go to the theater and they had 2 extra tickets since their friends cancelled. It was King Lear which is my favorite Shakespeare work.

I got their text while I was on the phone with this guy and I said, oh, I have to find someone to join me and my parents for this play. He said, OMG, I love that play, please can I go? I thought it would be somewhat weird to take a blind date to meet my parents, but my parents are so cool and they would not care, IF he was normal.

We arranged to meet at a Chinese restaurant near Lincoln Center and when I got there, I did not see a dark, tall, handsome guy like in the photo, I saw a troll. Seriously, he was like a hobbit. I freaked out, but, I am nice, so I said hello. He was ranting about how great I looked, even better than my photo, and I said, well, I cannot say the same as you obviously sent a fake photo for some reason, knowing we would be meeting. He said, well, I sent a friend's photo because I KNEW you would like me when we sat down.

Rolls eyes. Ok, so normally I would have left, but my parents were waiting and I had to eat something or I would have passed out. We go in and order, and not only was he hideous looking, he had abominable manners and talked non stop about himself, and it was not interesting. I just wanted to disappear and people were staring at us, as if I had taken pity on him.

Finally, I was eating some shrimp and it got stuck in my throat so I panicked and drank water, which made it swell in my throat and choke me. I started grabbing my throat, tears flying out of my eyes, and this asshole, just keeps talking!!!! People were staring and I was actually afraid I would die in front of everyone, worse, that they thought I was with HIM.

It seemed like an hour went by and no one was doing anything, so I gave MYSELF, the Heimlich thing and the shrimp flew out of my mouth, onto his plate. I ran to the ladies room hysterical crying, make up smeared and wanted to die.

I came back to the table and this idiot did not ask the waiter to take my plate away, he actually offered me my spit out shrimp. OMG.

So I was infuriated and would not talk to him and ran outside. He started running after me saying, wait, what about the theater?? I said fuck off you are a lunatic and I never want to see you again.

My parents were waiting at the theater and this guy goes over to them before ME and introduces himself so my parents did not know what happened and we had to go in together. Only later was I able to take them aside and tell them. During the play, which was serious, obviously, King Lear, duh, he was talking loudly and saying, this sucks, this is boring, etc.

I literally could not wait to get rid of him and take a shower and as we left the theater, he thanked my parents and said, I really like your daughter, I hope we can all see each other again.

He had the nerve to call me after that and I told him off like I never told anyone off and he said I was a stuck up bitch and that I would regret losing him.

That was a doozy of a date.

As someone that has suffered from severe insomnia, I can understand the falling asleep at odd times, thing.

It's amazing how many guys lied about things before the first meeting. They were all just so sure that that they were so sparkly and special that I would over look the obvious lie and forgive everything.

V had raved about how great this one restaurant was, so we went there. Crappy food, lousy service, and pricey. She mentioned to M that even though the food was crappy, at least it was "free" (meaning that it was free to them since I was picking up the tab). She didn't bother to ensure that I couldn't hear that. We then walked to Comedy Works for a show featuring Emo Phillips. Along the way, she hooted out to a woman she thought was attractive. No class. To drive the point home, as we were standing in line for tickets, she grabbed my crotch. While it wasn't seen by anyone, it pissed the hell out of me.

As I was about to drop her off, she hinted that she could use some extra money. She didn't get it.

I chose the restaurant which was a nice little Italian bistro I knew well.
He just kept staring at me through steamed up glasses, so I asked how he could see me properly and why didn't he take them off and wipe them, which he did.
Then the food arrived and he suddenly dived into it as though he hadn't eaten for a week. He resembled a pig at a trough, it was awful and all I could do was look away.
He then tried talking to me but he was spitting anchovy at me and bits of food started to dribble out of t he side of his mouth.
I excused myself and went to the ladies before going over and paying the bill, returning to the table to say, I have to go, the bills payed..........seeya!
He phoned the next day to say what a lovely evening and could we do it again very soon!!

Given maybe 5-7 minutes to complete your meal. Then you get into the field, now in a non combat related specialty you can eat and take your time. OTOH if you are a combat specialty and you frequently spend 15-19 hours a day on foot in dangerous territory, you don't eat a meal leisurely.

I remember visiting my family back home after my second tour. My pops barbequed an amazing briscuette and my mom and grandmother did some amazing southern comfort foods like twice baked potatoes, mushroom poppers, space shuttle chicken, ect;. Anyway, I sat down at the table, devoured everything in a matter of seconds and everyone was just staring at me like, WHAT THE FUCK?! My grandmother says, "You must have been hungry don't the feed you?" I did my best to explain to them that I just wasn't used to eating slowly, but for the entire week I was there I was constantly getting grief about the way I ate.

Anyway, it continued that way until about five months into college. I got to a point where I could slow myself down and enjoy a meal with conversation, something I hadn't had in almost a decade. Now, I wasn't a sloppy eater like this other fella. But I was a speed eater, that's for sure.

Back when I was but a young lad of only 18, I was on a night out with a bunch of medical students. It was going well, a nice drunken mess of night. However at the end, two female friends of mine came up with the idea of buying a few bottles of intoxicating beverages and heading to the beach.

Not being one to say no to a drink, I said "Hells yeah!" Once we got to the beach, they decided a game of "Never have I ever..." was in order, only thing was it had to be sex related. Again, I was up for this, drinking games are always fun.

Anyway, it starts off innocently enough, sweet almost, before turning rather crude. Which is when one of them said "I have never had a threesome on a beach"
Both of them then stared at me
so I said "neither have I" and went back to my drink

It wasn't till months later I realised (was actually told) what was on offer that night...
