Worst dates ever

Hey, we’ve all been there...

He chose a very expensive bar and bragged about being rich... then, when the bill came, wanted us to do a runner. When I refused, he asked if I’d transfer him £85.

He arrived with his newborn baby in tow and shrugged, “Hope you don’t mind. I just had to get out of the house and couldn’t find a sitter.”

CARRIE, 43

As the guy worked in my local pub, I knew him before our date. Or so I thought. Within minutes of meeting, he said, “I’d like to do you using a massive dildo.” I left, but woke to a video of him having some “solo time” the next day.

CLAIRE, 34

After a date with an antiques dealer, I went back to his. But mid-orgasm, I flung my arm back and smashed the tail off his prized birdshaped lamp. He wasn’t happy.

ROBYN, 30

After grilling me on my stance on abortion, he started lecturing me about academia and all the historical articles I must read. He then texted me a week later at 3am asking to use my student discount code.

On our second date, I offered to cook spaghetti bolognese at my flat. After drinking a lot and telling me he never has trouble getting girls, he (seriously) rated the dinner “6”, then cried, saying he knew that score had “broken my heart”.

He showed up 20 minutes late… then left after one drink as he “had to go back to the library”.

EMILY ,21

He spent the evening talking about his best friend, whose name he‘d just got tattooed on his wrist: “He opens up to me more than he does to his own wife, you know?”

SARA, 24
