I'm surprised I haven't posted more in here. I've had some really awful first dates.
One guy invited me to the race track (horses). He won the Tri-fecta ($600). He didn't pay for my dinner, for any of my drinks, any of my bets.. nothing! If I had won big like that, I'd have bought drinks for the next table over as well as for my date!
I'm sure I've told the story of the guy who brought his 15 year old son who was a former patient of mine when I was working adolescent psych. Probably in D&R somewhere.
There was one guy, who a "friend" had set me up with. We met at a hotel restaurant because it was about halfway between us and had really good food. He had been in a fraternity at my alma mater (a few years younger than me) so we knew a lot of the same people, which was why my "friend" set us up. He waggled his eyebrows very obviously, several times, and said "We're in a hotel" with a big exaggerated wink. SEVERAL TIMES. At first it was kind of funny, but it went on and on. He told me stories about how he hung out with a lot of lesbians in college and ended up at a lesbian orgy. He was a total pig. I asked my "friend" afterward if she really thought he was my type and she said "Well, he's totally a dog but I figured you were both greek at EMU and I wasn't sure he'd be like that with everybody". Yeah, that makes us totally compatible, sure. When I told some sisters from his era at EMU that I had gone out with him once, they were flabbergasted that someone would set up a "friend" with someone like him. Oy.
I really hate first dates you know.
