Simp story

My very first date in 14 years was an absolute nightmare and easily takes the trophy for worst first date ever

---

First dates fricking suck. With working from home and now in a new city, I was all excited when at the prospects when I first moved her. After about 5 first dates, I started losing some of that excitement. Hadn’t been in one in awhile.

Well my very first date was quite different:


Really good looking dentist messages me. He’s big into his faith, has even served in dental mission clinics in refugee camps in Africa. Chatted all week and seemed to hit it off (although at times he got a little intense but figured would see how he was in person). First date is set (by him) at a really nice seafood restaurant in Scottsdale.

Night of date...he is late first off, so I sit at bar with glass of wine while I wait. He shows up and he is better looking in person. We are seated at a really nice booth on a nice spot of restaurant. He immediately slides over in booth trying to hold my hand and kiss me and put his arm around him. I immediately knew then there would be no second date and gently pushed him away while I mentally thought how I was gonna tell him this at end of evening.

We order drinks and apps and food and chat some. That’s when he tells me it is really disappointing that I’m overweight (I was honest and told him over the phone I was trying to lose weight). That if I just did intermittent fasting I would drop the weight in no time and be a more acceptable weight.

Then right after he basically called me fat....he slides over AGAIN trying to get all touchy with me. Push him away again and remind him this is my very first date in 14 years and he is making me uncomfortable. Can we just chat and go slow.

Then he starts talking about his faith and how much he loves God. AND STARTS CRYING AT THE TABLE because he is so moved by his faith.

Then tries getting handsy again. This time when I push him away he storms off, but has left his phone. He comes back a few minutes later and says he has cancelled our meal (we’ve only had apps and drinks at this point) and we can just finish that and call it a night since clearly this isn’t gonna work out. I’m relieved cause now I don’t have to tell this unstable man I can never see him again.

Then he tries AGAIN to put his hands on me. This time gets pissed at me when I push him away telling me I’m a liar cause I said in my profile I’m affectionate (not 2 seconds after I meet you in person jackass). Then he starts yelling at me. Then stands up a yells really loudly at me (mind you we are in a really really nice restaurant) and points at me and calls me a liar and storms off. This time for good. And half the restaurant looking at me wondering what the hell happened.

That’s when I realized this crazy mother fricker left the bill. Granted the main meal was taken off bill but still....with drinks and apps and tips...,I was out $150.

Wait staff were wonderful to me. Gave me some extra bread to take home and a small plate of really good cookies. I hung out about 30-45 minutes just finishing my drink and cookies. Didn’t know if this looney guy was waiting outside so didn’t want to leave right away.


Beat that horrible first date story. At least I have a good ice breaker story for other first dates


ETA: Forgot to mention crazy dentist telling me that after less than a week knowing me he just knows I am the ONE for him

Wow, talk about taking handsy to a whole new level. Who does that

It’s ok to laugh. I laugh about it now. Cause it was just too crazy. Like something from a really bad comedy movie

If it sucks, you’re not doing it right. Getting a dog helps tremendously.

Holy shite. That’s fricking nuts. That’s dude sounds freaking dangerously unstable. I’ve had some bad first dates but nothing like that. Example A on why it’s so important for females to meet in a very public place.

He told you that you were overweight? I have thought that on dozens of first dates but never in a million years would I say it. What a rude son of a bitch.

The irony of him being so handsy that he ultimately had to give himself a handy later that night

Plus he stiffed her on the bill. What a complete a-hole.
