Dating can be filled with excitement and the possibility of finding a deep connection. But not every date goes according to plan. In fact, some dates take a turn for the worse and become unforgettable stories of awkwardness and cringe-worthy moments. Let’s take a look at some funny and unexpected dating mishaps that will make you thankful for your own dating experiences.
1. A Date to Forget
One woman shared her horrible date experience on Reddit. From the start, her date dominated the conversation with complaints about his life, without giving her a chance to share her thoughts. Frustrated, he excused himself to the restroom and decided to end the date early. But it didn’t end there. He arrogantly ordered her food, spilled juice on himself, and criticized the staff. Despite her discomfort, he continued his tirade throughout the evening. When the check arrived, she suggested splitting it, but he yelled at her. She left money on the table, threw some additional money at him, and walked away. It was a disastrous experience that she would never forget.
2. An Expensive Lesson
Another Reddit user shared their first date experience with a girl who insisted on dining at a pricey restaurant. Throughout the meal, she remained glued to her phone, taking calls and responding to texts. The waitress discreetly signaled the man and offered separate bills. He gladly accepted, paid his portion, and made a quick exit. It was an expensive lesson to learn about the importance of being present on a date.
3. An Unusual Companion
When a man was set up on a date by his roommate, he didn’t expect it to be so peculiar. They decided to go to the movies, and his date surprised everyone by bringing a massive blue rabbit as a movie-watching companion. After the movie, they went for ice cream, and his date suggested he not only kiss her but also the giant stuffed rabbit. Despite the odd situation, he went along with it, finding his date attractive but undeniably quirky.
4. A Family Affair
Sometimes, blind dates can be full of surprises. One man’s blind date took an unexpected turn when he discovered that his date’s appearance was significantly different from her online photos. To make matters worse, she introduced him to her parents and younger brother at the theater before they watched a movie together. The brother spent the entire time kicking the back of the man’s seat. Frustrated, he excused himself to the restroom and chose to end the date early.
5. A Ticket Surprise
On their first date to the London Zoo, a woman was asked by her date if she would be willing to cover her own ticket. She agreed, not expecting what would happen next. Her date produced a two-for-one voucher, resulting in her paying for her ticket while he entered for free. It was an unexpected twist that left her slightly puzzled.
6. A Shocking Discovery
During a dinner date, a woman was taken aback when her date accidentally revealed his wedding ring while reaching for his wallet. Repulsed by the situation, she immediately left the restaurant, leaving some cash on the table. It was a rare moment where she couldn’t even think about eating due to the circumstances.
7. An Unsettling Admission
One man was in for a surprise when his date revealed that she was engaged but wanted to go on other dates to see if she could change her mind. Uncomfortable with the situation, he quickly asked for the check and made a swift exit. It was definitely not the kind of date he had expected.
