Drunk
And
Disorderly
“
I once went on a date and got so drunk
beforehand that
I left my bag in the taxi on the way to his
. I
then closed myself in his bathroom with the light off somehow and thought I was trapped somewhere. I started shouting
for
help
and banging on the wall
... H
e found me naked on the floor under a towel. The next day I had to call in sick to work, get an Uber to the estate agents to pick up spare house keys
, and also
track my bag down
!
Somehow,
he still asked me on a second date...

A Change
Of
Plans
“
I went on a
date with Spanish guy
I
met on tinder.
We were h
aving a nice time, good chat, few drinks
- though I was driving so no alcohol for me. Suddenly
,
after about an hour and a half, he says
:
‘s
o what are you doing tonight?
’.
I was like
‘
what?
’.
In my head
I'm
thinking
, ‘I
was under the impression I was on a date with
you...
’
He follows up with
‘I'm
going for
a
late dinner with the lads. Spanish people eat late
’.
I
just replied with
‘
oh right, ok
ay’
.
I n
ever saw him again.
..
Thank god I drove myself!

Welcome
To The Gang
“
I met with a guy I met
from
tinder and he took me to an expensive Mezze restaurant in Maide Vale. He then conveniently forgot his credit card... I think he felt bad, so
to make it up to me,
he took me to his mate’s apartment to introduce five of his friends, all at once

How
To
Deal
With
Bad Date Situations
“Obviously, there are bad dates, and there are bad dates,” says Alexander Patall, resident dating expert at Datingroo
being upfront that you have to leave
will always be a better option than making a backdoor exit.”Honesty is also the best policy
if your lack of interest on a date is down to our own feelings. “If you’re on a date with somebody that is making an effort, but you’re just not interested -
try and let them down gently
,” adds Alexander. “Be honest that it’s your feelings and not anything they may have done. ‘It’s not you, it’s me’ is a well-known cliché - but it prevents the other party wondering what they did wrong.”Subscribe
