[Humour] Worst first dates

Jamie's tale reminds me strongly of a date I went on, which I don't consider to be that much of a disaster, all things considered.

Perhaps a decade and half ago, my mates and I met a group of girls in P&P, Tunbridge Wells. I was involved on the edges of the conversation, as was busy chatting away to a different bunch. Later that evening, we went to Davinci's nightclub and bumped into the group of girls again. I was well on my way, so introduced myself by knocking one of their drinks over whilst standing on their foot. We all ended up having a great laugh, and I shared some romantic moments with a very cute blonde girl. Myself and a friend agreed to meet her and her mate at the marina in a week or two.

Come the fateful day, myself and my mate headed over in his Lotus, met the girls and he drove one up to the Marina, whilst I walked with the other one. We sat down in Cafe Rouge and there begun an excruciatingly awkward double-date, where the one girl (his) was an absolute barrel of laughs and the other girl (sadly my one), was absolutely horrendous. Devoid of all personality and just endlessly complaining about the topic of conversation, whilst offering nothing herself. Eventually the date ended and we were able to say our goodbyes, with as much grace as we could muster (not much). They left and me and my mate went down to the car park talking about how horrendous my half of the date had been. It was then that I found my friend, prick that he is, had parked the Lotus Elise in a disabled space. Obviously there was a clamp on it. Called the bloke and he needed £180 cash - which we didn't have. We had to pay the wanker £20 to drive us to some cash machines, to get the £180.

The next day, the girl sent me a message saying we probably shouldn't see each other again. Which really didn't need saying.

Stunner of a girl working in a bank in Watford (don't ask). Weeks of popping in to lodge a cheque day after day until she was (a) on duty and (b) free. Chit chat, things proressing well. Bit of stalking, figured out the lunch pattern. Accidentally bumped into her one lunch time and chatted away over a sandwich. "Must do this again" so we did. Quick drink after work down by the station (miles out of my way but, hey ho, gotta do what you gotta do) which led to an agreed time and place for the big date. She arrived all dolled up, gorgeous beyond words. Fantastic evening with a smart, intelligent, football fanatic who loved readng, theatre and England away trips ... the girl of my dreams, the one and only. Some time after midnight she starts getting dressed ... "oh, do you have to go?" "Yes, I need to get home before my husband".

Always remember sniggering mightily some years back on a packed commuter train over a letter to the Metro's lovey dovey advice column where a London reader asked innocently whether they should take their girl up The Oxo Tower on a first date :lol:

:lolol: That's hilarious and reminded me of this awkward encounter I had with a very pretty short girl at The Event. Public Enemy were playing a gig which was brilliant and I was well wasted. I was in the middle of the dance floor chatting to this bird who I noticed was using a crutch, just one. I said "what happened to your leg did you break it?" she answered "I've only got one leg" so I bent down for a closer look "oh yeah". I didn't really know what to say after that.

Which in turn reminds me of pulling this gorgeous long haired brunette at the Suite one night in the early seventies. We had a dance and I went to hold her hand to lead her to the bar afterwards and found it was made of rubber. Poor lass had lost her arm from the shoulder. We got on fine until she told me she was on a hen do from Portsmouth of all places. Nuff said.

"Yes, I need to get home before my husband".

Reminds me of the time I was introduced to an 'older' friend of a friend in a nightclub (she was 42, I was 22), got into a taxi back to her place and I thought my luck was definitely in. Sat down in lounge and saw a nice family photo. I asked about the photo and she said that the kids were staying over with a neighbour and her husband was currently serving time at Her Majesty's Pleasure. Decided that I wasn't brave enough to take that challenge on, made my excuses about needing to be up early to play football in the morning and legged it sharpish.

Years ago when I was then dating girls only, I took a pretty young thing home to her doorstep, things were warming up even though it was -5 outside, so we grabbed her father's car keys from her kitchen and jumped in their frozen Morris traveller. At this point, things were going rather well, until father scraped off the ice from the side window to see who was in his car. I had just hit the point of no return as he shouted 'get out of my morris now'. I'd thought he had said, Doris, as that was his daughter's name!
I had a near-death experience that night and worse still I ended up with a substantial bill for a new leaf spring as we broke it, apparently.

I will never forget Doris.

He might have been a Cockney asking you to get out of Doris's Morris Minor (vagina)!
