OK, everybody, time to fess up - best and worst dates

[ScottinSoCal]

I hope we've all had at least one of those magical, mystical, super-special kind of dates. One where everything was exactly perfect (whether the date partner later turned out to be perfect or not) and then we've had at least one of those dates where everything went wrong. So dish - what was your best date, ever? What was your worst date, ever?

Best date: a simple one. My date actually called and asked me what I wanted to do on a date. It was charming - no one had ever asked me before. So we did my ideal date; take-out Chinese food and a video at home. We put the video in and talked about everything until 6AM the next morning. That was the night I fell in love.

Worst date: Expensive reataurant - he ordered veal (bleh). He spent the whole night flashing his cell phone (this was the early 90s, and cell phones were new), his watch, his ring, talking about how much he paid for his car (but didn't know horsepower, torque, 0-60 time, or anything else interesting). Topped it all off by announcing the he expected to spend the night at my place - he'd paid for dinner, after all. I wrote him a check and told him we were square, and he didn't need to bother calling me again. He cashed my check the next day.

Best date ever? hmm, well I'll have to say it was the night my fiancee and I first met each other...nov. 3rd, 2006:

We had been chatting on and off for a few weeks and seemed to be hitting it off rather nicely, but I didn't want to jump the gun on things. So, we set off to meet in person and see how it went from there...I remember being a nervous nelly the whole night before/day of..we hadn't spoken on the phone, nor did I have a real good picture of him to go by..so I had zero clue what was in store for me.

So I arrive at the restaurant we were meeting at, and I stood outside by my car waiting in the chilly breeze of the early November dusk. Didn't have to wait long, for I soon heard "Hey...Matt?" I freeze a little from the surprise, and I turn around and standing before me, weighing me carefully with sharp dark hues, was the fox (nickname ) My jaw was left agape, not knowing what was what, just that I was stunned mentally and physically. I think I mumbled back to him but I do not remember exactly for it was a hazy few moments hehe.

I think we sat in the back of my care listening to tunes for about an hour before we decided to go inside and grab dinner. All the while, the voice in the back of my mind was telling me to "don't get too hasty, take it slow.." as I was telling that voice to shove it and go sit in a corner like a good pup :3 Now here we are, a good 4 1/2 years later with plans to get married ^.^

Ah man...that night was one I could never ever (totally) forget Just wish we were blessed with permanent jobs and a nest egg so we might go forward in our wedding plans, but alas that is on the back burner while we continue to trudge through the muck, him without a job...me scrambling to keep ahold of this contracting gig I've been doing the better part of the last 2 years...but nonetheless, I have to say that was THE #1 date in my book.

Worst date you ask? well, are you recalling the shrub who wouldn't stop talking about himself in a glittery fashion and kept randomly belting out Brittany Spears? Or the guy who didn't deem it necessary to groom himself thoroughly and didn't see the problem even though I (mistakenly) nearly gagged when we hugged from the B/O, and then proceeding to go all up and down me defending his freedom of stink?

*sighs* thankfully all of that is over shadowed by the best date I had above hehe.

In 38 years of being out (of 55 total), I've only been on ONE date. (All the rest simply got down to business.) So, by default, it was both the best AND worst date. Best in that we had a great upscale dinner, interesting conversation, and a lot of across-the-table cruising of each other (guess it's also called "flirting"). Worst in that I had no idea he was moving out of state the next week. From what I heard later, I blew my chance at a once-in-a-lifetime experience... and have kicked myself ever since. Every once in a while, I wonder why I changed my "standard operating procedure" that one time.

Best date? .... Being taken to a titty bar by a bi-sexual chick. Amazing night out but nothing came of it, it could never work in any sense. We fancied the same sort of women, she must have fancied herself even.

Worst? .... Went out with a girl who I liked from work, got on well at work, turns out she was a crazy politically correct woman activist. With a drink in her, everything became some form of conflict or needed to have greater meaning. I walked out and left her there hoping she would get run over or murdered on her way home.

Back at work she was embarrassed about it all and admitted she was seeking help. A five bob hammer would have done the job.

I hate dating. HATE it. Always just end up in long term relationships with friends who are equally fed up with it all. Currently 6 yrs now and its tolerable. lol

Not asbad as realising I have posted in the gay forum cos im too drunk to realise. Bwahaaha

Not gay btw, but you folks know how to have fun. Lucky .......os. I think you need more rights in eveything you do, just so you can be as miserable as the rest of us. lol
