Singles dream of dating feeling like a hilariously wholesome sitcom, but it can also be a cringeworthy reality show with episodes titled "Mommy's Boy at the Restaurant" and "The Awkward Movie Night."
Recently, a person who goes by the nickname Nocta on X asked other platform users to describe the worst dates they've been on, and their post immediately went viral.
As of now, it has been viewed over 22.3 million times, with thousands of people contributing their experiences to the discussion, so we decided to scour the thread and show you the most memorable ones.
Continue scrolling to check out our hand-picked entries and the talk we had with dating coach Blaine Anderson — you will find it spread out between the images.

These stories might represent a broader picture. Among those who are on the dating market – the 15% of American adults who are single and looking for a committed relationship or casual flings – 67% say it's going either not too well or not at all well.
While single-and-looking men and women report equal levels of dissatisfaction with their love lives and the ease of finding romantic interests, women are more likely to say they have had some particularly negative experiences.

I got sent a drink at a bar by a man who looked very friendly so we went out for lunch next day, this is on a small Caribbean island, not a city I could have got out the back door of a restaurant from and hailed a cab. He told me he had just come out of prison. It seemed he was really upset she was unfaithful, and he and two friends had taken her out for a boat trip and drowned her. He said while in prison he discovered a talent for drawing and was making a good living and going to therapy now. I did drive him back to the marina he was staying in but I didn't go there for another week until I thought he had left.

I remember a date with a guy who told me with apparent enjoyment how a friend of his had murdered three wives by pushing them off cliffs. Think it was his way of saying he wasn't interested.

Don't know why you were downvoted, here is a tick up. Does someone believe we should just accept being introduced to children on a first date? And before being told the children exist and how do we feel about that? Because that is deception and an attempt to coerce a person to feel according to a designated plan for future involvement. Let's also remember how vulnerable children are and the terrible ways this could affect them.

I met a man who asked me for a date. I told him I had a little boy and he was fine with that. Long story short, we've been married for nearly 46 years and have a daughter as well.
Singles are often open to seeing people with many different traits and from a variety of backgrounds, which also entails a level of uncertainty.
"Especially with someone you're not very familiar with, my best piece of advice for planning a first date is to avoid getting too creative!" Blaine Anderson, dating coach and founder of Dating By Blaine, told Bored Panda.
"Asking a woman to drinks tends to be a safe and time-tested bet. Find a bar you love, particularly one that has non-alcoholic options because not everyone drinks these days, and then feel free to use it as the venue for all of your first dates. Because you'll always be at the same spot, you give yourself something like a home court advantage with this strategy!"

I had similar happen. We had spoken in line for months. He came for a visit and we went into the city centre. He got a tattoo of my name,I big letters down his forearm. After going home he called me to tell me he was going to move in with me. Told,not asked. Freaked me out. Blocked him.
Of course, there are plenty of reasons why a date might take a turn for the worse, but Blaine, who has helped over 3,000 people find love, thinks guys tend to make two mistakes over and over again.
"The first one is exclusively focusing on forming an intellectual connection, and not a physical or emotional one," she explained. "This is a mistake that intelligent and introverted guys make in particular!"
"The second one is over-sharing, and talking too much about themselves. I think a lot of guys feel like they need to impress the woman they're out with, and they don't realize that they talk too much about themselves as part of that process," the dating expert added.

Actually yes, drowning can happen super quickly, and drowning is usually silent and not noticeable. The way movies portray drowning, with lots of splashing and choking, isn't real.
Load More Replies...It can be quite difficult to end a date early in a polite and smooth manner, even if it isn't going well. "You always want to balance being direct with being empathetic," Blaine Anderson said.
"Depending on how early you want to do that, there may not be a truly polite way — cutting a date off after less than 30 minutes is probably going to feel rude no matter how smooth you are."

Did you have his phone number to call him back? No wait, you couldn't, he stole your phone.
However, if you're in a situation where you just have to hit the escape key, Blaine suggests saying something along the lines of, "Hey, I'm so grateful you took the time to come here to meet me. I can tell I'm not feeling a romantic connection, and I want to be respectful of your time, so I want to part ways for now, but I genuinely wish you all the best."
"Just don't be surprised if the person you're out with asks for more of an explanation!" she added.

It can be exhausting to keep putting yourself out there when Cupid has turned his back to you. Which is probably why almost half (49%) of Bumble users are prioritizing their own work/life balance over actively looking for love.
However, you might run into your special someone even if you're not trying to. Just keep your eyes open, and remember, there's no such thing as a perfect date.

Why are so many people shocked she asked about STD testing? I'd think by now, people would know it's just the responsible thing to do. Even if you've been monogamous, your prior partner may not have been, so it's always a good idea before starting any new relationship. And it's a good question to ask a potential new partner, because you don't really know their sexual history. You can also judge from how they answer whether THEY are responsible about STDs too. Getting tested is the right, responsible, and caring thing to do. (Even my elderly mother got tested regularly - because she KNEW STD rates are stupid high in the older population.)

You can be with one person for five years and somehow get an STD. How, you may ask? That person you are loyal to has cheated, and especially if you guys are not using condoms. You should get tested regularly. You don't have to be with a gang of people because of that. Sometimes, HIV may not show up after a couple test and that is why they say come back in 6 months for a follow-up test.

(I'm still somewhat mortified when I think of that time I went grocery shopping with him and he noticed at the checkout that he was too low on funds.

Just an FYI: the Kingdom of Hawai'i ended in 1893, and was annexed by the US in 1898, made a US territory in 1900, and made a state in 1959. You may be thinking of the The Sovereign & Independent Nation State of of Hawai‘i - which was established in 1995, giving natives the right of self determination. But it's not a kingdom, and grants no governmental authority. Also, I don't think naming things after other things is really cultural appropriation.

On the opposite end of that comment, I had been talking to this guy on-line for months.

I really did enjoy chatting with him though and we met up irl the night he came down the hill. We were pretty inseparable after that. One night we were perusing Walmart and happened upon this woman whom he introduced as his mother. She greeted me and stated so this is who he's been spending all his time with. How do you deal with it? I was confused and asked deal with what? She said, his silence. He's so quiet how do you handle it? I said i don't know what your talking about? He talks all the time? Turns out he doesn't talk to people he doesn't like. She's a very toxic person. We are going on13 years and have never been happier.

Because, in the moment you are caught off guard.

Been there. Couldn't drop her off fast enough, but had to stop a couple of times so she could puke.

I love going for walks in graveyards 😂 fly across the world to Vienna and go and visit Zentralfriedhoff. It's a graveyard but feels like a sculpture garden!

I find it amazing the number of people I've heard break up or commit attempted murder because they can't stand the sound of other people's chewing. I guess there are times when being somewhat hard of hearing is helpful.

That's a you problem. Yes it's gross when people chew, slurp and smack extra loud but you chose/ accepted an eating date knowing you don't like sounds

Attempt at translation: He stank so badly of body odor when he put his arm around her shoulder that she nearly threw up. When she got home her long hair kept smelling of his armpit even after several washes so she had to get it cut into a bob.

If you wash your hair with some medicated shampoo I am sure that would get the smell out...

It’s only really gross to drink it after someone’s put their fingers in it, so I’m assuming it was after they put their fingers in it

If underdressed counts then my date with an MC Hammer wannabe many years after MC Hammer faded into obscurity would belong here!

I had a boyfriend show up at my parent's house for dinner wearing a tank top, boxers, and ratty sneakers with no socks. He had long hair that looked like he hadn't bothered to brush it. He always wondered why my parents didn't like him.

Maybe he's posting somewhere about how she wore a dress she thought was cute..

Oh the horror! She... talked! And paid! What a terrible travesty! Looks like she dodged a bullet.
Michael Largey 1 year ago
Aren't "She talked" and "She talked the entire time" two very different things? Just as paying for dinner and paying for a dinner the other person was allowed no say in are different. I might add that telling all the relevant facts and telling only the ones you choose to include are vastly different as well.

“The role of listeners has never been fully appreciated. However, it is well known that most people don’t listen. They use the time when someone else is speaking to think of what they’re going to say next. True Listeners have always been revered among oral cultures, and prized for their rarity value; bards and poets are ten a cow, but a good Listener is hard to find, or at least hard to find twice.”

He date obviously lacked any curiousity about that point.

So her date got physically assaulted, also, he was drunk, so he probably couldn't take care of himself. And she left him there. Even a hard punch can cause a concussion, now imagine a drunk person being punched and he falls over, hits his head? Signs of concussion like dizziness and feeling sick, easily hidden by being drunk? No one else to check up on him, call an ambulance if need be? Wonder what she would have said if the situation was reversed. What a champion of compassion and humanity, this woman is.

If he is old enough to drink, he is old enough to be responsible for himself. He shouldn't have gotten so drunk he couldn't take care of himself. He put himself in that situation and it's not her fault that he's a man baby who put himself in harm's way.

He didn't state it as an opinion, he stated it as a fact. It's his arrogance that would have turned me off.

In my forties, there was the guy who arrived late, clearly having refreshed himself liberally in advance, who couldn't string two sentences together, kept putting his hands up my dress and asked 'Do you still menstruate?' So embarrassing.

I was on few bad dates but the one that I remember as worst was... Strange and very unpleasant. It was a tinder date. In my eyes she was a good looking girl but not stunning. I am mentioning this only because during the date, I could tell from her behaviour toward me, our surroundings and many thing she said, she was seeing herself at minimum 11/10. She treated me like I was some creep. I wanted to scream and run away from her but I didn't because I wanted to be gentleman and to close date properly (and never talk to her again). So we talked, eat and finish date. At the end I proposed to walk her to a bus station, but she replied she don't want me to follow her. Like wtf girl...

I met a guy on the internet in the early 2000s. I was really just trying to learn how to put myself out there as I was painfully shy. We were going to watch anime. not really my thing, but again I was trying to learn to be social. My best friend lived on the other side of the duplex I lived in and was well aware of my date incase things went awry. Anyways, he stands up and moves in front of me and says "I can make you suck it you know? To which I promptly replied, you can also leave here without it. Needless to say, he opted to leave with his stuff in tact and I never talked to him again.

In my 20s, I went on a first date with a guy that worked in my building. I'm pretty easy going and enjoy when things go wrong, but I just couldn't with this guy. He got to my apt, a fair distance from his place, and then left because he forgot the tickets. Leaves. Comes back an hour later with tickets, but forgot his wallet. So dinners on me. That's fine. We get to the venue and he locks his keys in the car with it still running. We have to wait for a locksmith. Still ok with it, it's an accident. But he takes that hour to try to talk about our "relationship" and getting really mushy, which I don't like. He's 6'6, I'm 5'1. So he picks me up. Put me down I'm done. The locksmith shows up and he has to convince him it's his truck without any identification. Finally the guy opens it. $150. Guess who pays? He drives me home and skids. Then freaks out about how I'll always remember that he skidded his truck. At the end, I just high fived him and ran inside.

Went on a date with a woman who worked for the army as a civilian on their IT systems. She told me proudly how she would beat the snot out of guys on the base that annoyed her because she knew they wouldn't hit a woman back. Told me all about the fighting training she had and how she'd use the sparring training to vent her frustrations on other people. I went to the restroom and did a Ferris Bueller (running as fast as I could on the spot to get all flushed and sweaty), came out and told her I didn't feel well and had to go...
