Things you should never say on a date.

JAGG · 09-20-2013, 07:44 AM

I've been sheltered and pampered my whole life so I need someone who will take good care of me.

I have alot of phobias. I have a huge fear of flying , I can't swim besides I'm allergic to the sun .

Oh nice car you must have alot of money which is perfect because I like to spent alot .

I'm the president of the local cat rescue.

"I'm single...well, technically anyways. It's complicated."

A constant checking the smartphone for texts, calls, etc - does drive me nuts, too. However, if my date has young kids...I'm ok with it.

"Your bed or mine?" - True story, said to me on a first date. (For the record, I declined.)

"Oh, I don't carry a purse (read: money)."

Nothing from my own experience comes to mind (i don't date often), but keep the pointers coming.

starryeyes · 05-05-2014, 10:27 PM

"I want to go talk to that girl sitting over at the other table" and then get up and leave.

Yeah that happened!

Dating sucks!!

imperfect_cupcake · 05-05-2014, 11:30 PM

the first date I went on after my exwife left, was pretty awful. It started ok until I mentioned I was friends with X. She got very excited and said she had a huge crush on X and that X was her physical ideal. X is short, slender with long brown hair and dark eyes.
I'm tall, pixie blonde hair, pale blue eyes and very buxom and rather chubby. ok. so, like, the opposite of me. that's nice.

This is right up there with being told out of the blue (not that I would ever ask, much less care because it just isn't important to me) that "The carpet matches the drapes"...

I have had this one.

Also, one woman told me that she was in sex and love addicts anonymous (SLAA) and that it was because she had a fear of relationships. I was like, well, OK, she seems self-aware and honest.

She then stood me up twice in a row. So, I told her that was a red flag and that I was done. She was outraged. I apparently was not sensitive to her issues. I guess I wasn't.

Martina · 09-20-2013, 08:17 PM

A woman picked me up and then ran an errand for work with me in the car and waiting while she ran in. (A version of this has happened to me so many times. I do not know what is wrong with me that this has happened so often.)

Then during coffee she tells me a story about going to her newly married ex's house and hanging out outside just to be near her. She called and told the ex the next day. The ex was freaked out and told her not to do it anymore. Then the butch asked me if I thought her behavior was stalker-like. I had to say, "Yeah, I do."

No second date.

Hi, Metro.

Hey, I like self-deprecating humor (when it's smart and ironic). People mistake it for low self-esteem, but it's just the opposite when it's done right. IMO

Take care,
Scout
