All about dating. First dates, three years into a relationship, Tinder, and more.

Date to Forget
It all started out on Tinder. I didn't find him one bit attractive but somehow we matched. We talked for a week or so and one night I was lonely and bored so I asked him if he wanted to hang out. He said sure and so after he got off of work I made my way over to his apartment. I parked, started walking towards his apartment and there I saw him standing at the bottom of the stairs. At that moment all I could think while looking at him was, "Just turn around and go home. His pictures do him too much justice! You are seriously not interested!" But I thought that would be rude. I reached him and instantly said hi and he replied with a hello and a very awkwardly robotic hug. We began up the stairs to the apartment while he's talking to me I was thinking, "It's not too late to run down the stairs to your car." But my thoughtfulness for other's feelings thought it was still too rude so I followed him all the way to his door. The real horror lied behind that white wooden door. He turned the knob and in we went. There were newspapers on the floor, random stuff all over the floor, heaps of randomocity everywhere and food from 3 weeks ago, or so it looked, on the coffee table. He gestured for me to sit on the couch and I hesitated because I mean ew. He hands me the remote and tells me to pick what my heart desired to watch while he changed out his work clothes. I flipped through and found a decent show to watch, Wild N Out. He comes back and sits next to me but we don't touch.

Worst "Date" of My Life
To tell you the story of my "Worst Date Ever," I must first tell you about how the date came to be and where I was in my life at the time.

Disney Tinder Turns Ugly
#MyWorstDate When I think of my worst ever dating experience, several memories flash in my mind like a highlight reel. There was the time a guy announced his infertility before the starter had even arrived, the guy who showed me the 12 inch designer blade he had in his glove compartment, the guy who asked me for petrol money after dropping me home... but when I think of THE worst experience ever, there can only be one.

The 225 First Dates
The big moving truck came, they packed up all my belongings, filled the truck with my furniture and I finished packing up my car, off I went to a new state, new life and to heal my broken heart.

The Date From Hell
Let's face it we all have had our fair share of bad dates, whether it was with someone that we knew/kind of knew or perhaps the worst dates of all—blind dates. For those of you who have never had the pleasure or lack thereof meeting a complete stranger, you may want to stay clear of the whole online blind dating hype, just a bit of friendly advice.

#MyWorstDate
All my life I never really thought about dates. Relationships to me were a way for one person to keep tabs on another by controlling where they went and when they went there. I had spent my whole life trying to gain the confidence and knowledge to someday become a powerful figure in society and I did not need someone coming along and ripping that from my fingertips. I was always more of the independent type. If I went on a date I’d probably stress out the whole time about who’s going to pay for dinner. Typically I would pay because I hate for someone else to buy anything for me. The idea of that always made me uncomfortable. But a small part of me still wanted to know what it was like to go on one. And not the cliche, Hollywood cinema, stereotypical, retro diner type of date, either. I wanted a normal date. And by normal, I mean dinner at Applebee’s and possibly a movie at home. Finding the person to go on the date with was the hard part. I didn’t want to just go with anyone random, and I definitely did not want to do the blind date thing; that would be terrifying. So that is exactly what I did. I never would have thought that my worst date would also be my first and possibly my last, but it was exactly that. My best friend set me up on a blind date with one of her best friends’ ex. Now that already sounds terrible. Your best friend's ex? If I would have known at the time that that is who I would be going out with, I would have immediately declined the offer.

#MyWorstDate It was one of those blind (family) date situations where an older cousin of mine set me up a restaurant event so I would meet this guy he had come to know.

Social Media Dating Gone Horribly Wrong
"Oh my, he's very attractive—and just liked my photo!" Yes. We've all been there and thought that. What if that handsome guy had mutual friends with you and DM'd you on Instagram to get to know you? Would you reply? Would you get to know someone via the internet?

#MyWorstDate
Only a few weeks ago, if even a month, I had decided I was lonely and bored one night. I wanted to have sex and conversation. So I, a woman who's picky about my kinks, decided I would message a guy I talked to some time ago on Tinder. We never had much conversation, but we had similar sexual interests; we both were into rough stuff AND casual dating. I hadn't talked to him since Thanksgiving, when I was upset my brother didn't come over and he asked if he could come keep me company. I said yes, but that I wasn't looking for sex that night...I should have taken his response as a red flag. "I'm not going to drive out this late if it's not for sex." So, months later, I decided to message him again, because I was looking for sex and I was desperate. I didn't want to hook up with anyone that wasn't into what I like—I was craving satisfaction and he seemed like the kind of man who could give it to me.

The Tinder Tarp #MyWorstDate
I was swiping through Tinder at work because my head was just in the right space to care about work on a Monday morning, and came across this beautiful woman, about my age, with some shared interests and a mutual attraction as when I swiped right, we matched and I did my mini happy dance.

Craigslist Medicine
#MyWorstDate I am an herb enthusiast with her medical card. I’m probably not the most responsible person, even to myself. So when I noticed I was running very low on my medicinal herb, I called and placed my refill request. Due to a number of circumstances, I would not be able to pick it up a few days. I start to brain storm, what is a girl supposed to do?

#My Worst Date Story
Well, it all started after I graduated high school, I mean barely graduated high school. I wasn't a scholar by any means. The typical kid that copied someone's paper for a nominal fee of course. Although I had a certain gift at singing and thought that was my way out of the life that I was in. Had the best looking girl at the school and plenty of friends, so you could say I was the Fonzi of the TV show Happy Days of my era. Being I had honors chorus boosted my celebrity status tenfold. Known for my style of sound that sent the ladies crazy and always wanting to be around me there was nothing that held me back and I wasn't going to stop until I reached the top and make it big time. When I heard the news that I was going to graduate I fell to my knees and thanked God first because, as I mentioned earlier when I told you I barely graduated, I failed the eighth grade a while back mainly because I was a knucklehead and a ladies man and thought books were for geeks. Had to learn the hard way and that was a lesson learned. You know how it is when you think you're the man and feeling like you are on cloud nine. Cheech and Chong couldn't hold a candle to me. I smoked so much weed, I think if I would have gotten cut nothing but the smoke would spew out of that cut. A handsome and cocky kid that I was, not to be too full of myself I felt like I was invincible. Back then gas was a dollar fifty and the products that are out now that were out back then tasted a lot better. Wait, I know what you're thinking, but this was in the 90s, I'm not that old. Cell phones were out then thank you even though they were flip phones they were out darn it. Partying was an understatement for me though I went to a few of them in my lifetime and had a blast. True, I could remember very few because I was so wasted, but my friends tell me I was the life of them. Till one party when I went with my cousin was one I wish I would have taken back. I'm a country boy so you can imagine this party was in backroads-country, where if you were to trip in it you would be out of it.. that tiny. Back to this beautiful lady that I met, well, to make a long story short, we hit it off and decided to call each other the next day to go out. Fresh dressed and feeling like a million bucks I was ready. She picked me up and yes I had a car but she wanted to drive, I'm not a scrub ladies. We went to a movie and after the movie, we got a couple of drinks before she took me back home. Me thinking I'm the big drinker, I chugged down some cheap liquor which I don't recommend to anyone. So after it settled in me she started to get frisky and we started kissing each other. So after I got a half of a word out that was it, I thought the window was down in the car I was so wasted. Next thing you know I felt like I was going to hurl and fast so I leaned next to the window and spewed chunks which redirected right back in my face because the window was up. So after she died laughing I called it a night and needless to say never heard from her again. Once again #worst date ever.
