WORST DATES EVER These may just be the weirdest yet…

Hey, we’ve all been there…

He called me a ‘loser’ for living with my parents, despite the fact that he lived in a van. He later fraudulent­ly used my address to open bank accounts and take out insurance. I still get bailiff threats... ROCHELLE*, 32

After the date, he accidental­ly messaged me saying,‘She’s nice… but fat. Will call her for no-strings sex.’ He then accused me of hostility when I texted it back to him the next week. RAJIT, 36

I went on a date with a guy I’d met online who turned out to be the leader of a ‘free love’ cult. After a bit of research, I realised he was using the site to groom new members. EMMA, 30

When he asked if I had pets, I told him my dog had died. He started uncontroll­ably sobbing, and I was left trying to console him. SARAH, 18

I’d invited this guy over for a movie night, but after hours of hinting, he wouldn’t leave. Eventually, I went to brush my teeth. When I came back, he was stripping off to reveal a set of tartan pyjamas… which he’d had on under his clothes all night. DANIELLA, 24

It was going really well, until he called me his ex’s name – twice. He laughed it off as ‘an obvious mistake, because no one is as good as her’. ALESSANDRA, 27

He brought his toddler son (who I didn’t know he had) to the bar. After the kid’s mum picked him up, he said, “Back to mine now it’s just us?” Er, no thanks, Tyrone. MEL, 21

On our date he added me on Facebook and hovered over me until I accepted. He then scrolled through my photos, stopped at one of my last boyfriend and said,“That your ex, then?”

HELEN, 29

He said he was taking me to a ‘cute restaurant’ a 40-minute walk away. It was a Nando’s. And we’d passed two other branches along the way.

MARIA, 19
