View Full Version : Blind Dates
Have you ever been on a blind date? And how did it work out?
A friend from work went on one Saturday night, and she was very disappointed in the outcome. They had very little in common and ran out of things to talk about. She said it felt like the longest night of her life.

tdf4077 06-12-2007, 09:09 PM oh my god! where to start with the terrible recent bad blind date! the guys spent 2 hours talking about his ex and how he missed her/loved her...texted her half the time. told me she might be pregnant and he hoped so, but she could also be late for her cycle because she gave him an infection (which he went into detail describing). Then, he left to "look for women with his friend since i wasn't that attractive". ouch!

OMG i wouldnt go on a blind date again love! Sounds like he was on the rebound.
I went on my first and only blind date several years ago. A friend of mine set me up with one of her female co-workers.
How did it go?
Did you ever see the first ten minutes of "Saving Private Ryan?"
It was worse than that.
;)

catlover79 06-13-2007, 01:11 AM My friend set me up on a blind date in November of 1995. I was 16 and the guy was a little...messed up. Not long after this first (and ONLY) date, he got busted for indecent exposure. I swear I am not making that up. :eek:
My friend still apologizes to me to this day for that fix-up, nearly 12 years later!! :lol: That was the only time I've ever gone on a blind date.

cmcb06 06-13-2007, 01:30 PM I have gone on a few blind dates. All of which were FIASCOS. I went on one in Febuary of 2006, he didn't keep his hands off me. We went to this nice resturaunt and he slid in right next to me. When it is usually the custom when at a booth to go to the other side. And he kept on grabbing at me for the whole time. I mean I don't mind it usually, but when there's no chemistry hands off ya bum lol.
Number 9 Dream 06-13-2007, 01:49 PM My prom date (Terry) was actually a blind date :lol: He used to live and go to the schools in our district, but moved away to Arizona when he was in the 8th grade. My friend at the time had asked him to come visit NY again and it just happened to be around prom time and my then boyfriend at the time had just broken up with me. She knew I needed a prom date, so she suggested her friend Terry (who I'd never met until the day of the prom) take me to the prom.
Well, I lucked out because he was really sweet, funny, and good-looking :lol: We had a great time!
It seems like most everyone has had a bad blind date experience. When I first began dating, my best friend set me up with her boyfriends cousin. He was all hands, and I couldn't wait for that date to be over. How can someone you've never laid eyes on before think that you want to be mauled like that?

Yeah...pretty much scared me away from blind dating for awhile :)

I got suckered into several by my friends over the years. As you say - they were ALL horrible. The worst was with some greasy Italian guy (got nothing against Italians - I ended up with one) but this clown was something. Wore black dress pants and a wife beater shirt, put his arm around me immediately and wouldn't let go and had the worst case of flatulence I've seen in my life. Didn't even excuse himself or try to separate himself from the rest of us (it was a double date) when he farted. Just let 'em rip loud and proud.
I've had several others that were incredibly bad too. You almost want to go back to your friends and say WTF were you thinking? Do you hate me that much?! :lol:

No you're not! :lol: But trust me, you aren't missing a thing!
I'd never hook a friend up on a blind date - I'm just not that mean! ;)
TVFactFan 06-14-2007, 11:10 AM I hate blind dates because i normally get asked these annoying a$$ questions before the date on the phone

Where do u see yourself in 5 years?
Do you want children?
Do you drive?
Do you like your job?
I HATE THOSE QUESTIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!_lol

Sounds more like a job interview than a date!! :crazy: :lol:

I know, i wish women would stop asking me those stupid ass questions like they are hiring me for a job. Those 5 questions at the time of the convo are so irrelevant at that time.

lol Honestly - where DO you find these chicks? Doesn't anyone just go out for fun? It's just one date.
Sounds to me like someone in their mid-thirties with their biological clock bellowing in their ear if they have to ask such personal and serious questions just to go out on a date on. Like she'd be wasting her time and life if she were to go out with a guy for one night who wasn't into marriage or children. And believe me, these are the ones who lament to their friends about why they can't find a boyfriend.
Jo_Luvs_Ketchup 06-14-2007, 01:58 PM My first boyfriend was a blind date. It went well and then after went rocky with his ex girlfriend. We just got back together. I do think some blind dates work out. I hope so anyway lol.
angel676 06-14-2007, 05:51 PM So far I've only had two blind dates and that was enough. That 2nd blind date was the absolute worst. My aunt set me up with this older man. I'm 29 years old and this man was about 48 years old and he looked it. I new right there and then it was going to be disaster. I was so mad at my aunt. It's cool that she likes old men, but I don't. All we did was watch some movie and he brought me back home. I wanted to kill my aunt. lol I will NEVER go on a blind date again.
