Hi, was just thinking about dates and how it's been a while since i've been on one. I don't miss them as they are extremely annoying. It's like standing in a minefield.
Anyways, what annoys you most about dates? For me its: "Do you have a boyfriend!?!?" "no, you?" "No....do you want a boyfriend!?!?"
If you say no, it's like you are out for an easy lay. If it's yes, you come across as a immensely desperate. and of course when you say yes they just say "yeah, me too..."
The worst thing about dates is when you have absolutely nothing to say to the other person, and end up either making stupid small talk to fill the silence. It's so embarrassing and awkward.
God, I have some dating horror stories. My dating experiences have been so woefully crap that I honestly don't mind having not been on one for ages.
My dates seem 2 go well but bout half way thru the **** up fairy works her magic & i make a complete twat outta myself.
The worst un has gotta b when i wer tryin 2 impress this lass after we'd gone out 4 a meal, by walkin back 2 holiday camp place we wer both stayin at, across the beach, it wer dark n had big full moon n loadsa stars. Plan was working she wer well impressed, conversation wer gr8 n well i wernt lookin where i wer walkin & ended up fallin down a 6ft hole sum twat had dug during day got covered in sand head 2 toe, took bout half an hour 2 get outta it (she wer curled up on sand pissin herself laughin) & spent a good few minutes tryin 2 get sand outta my gob, needless 2 say i dint do right well after that, she cudnt take me seriously or summat.
Another classic was when I'd been on a date with this girl in sheffield playin pool n we decided 2 go 2 Dempseys to carry night on, i got a mate who looks alot like me (people r always mistakin us for each other) & she'd dug herself in2 sum sorta trouble by havin sum1 on go behind her psycho gfs back, anyway night wer goin well i wer havin a r8 good laugh wi this lass n i noticed sum1 givin me dodgy looks all night but just ignored it, end of night we left dempseys n this lass came runnin up2 me 2 & gimme a gobful 4 wotever my m8 had dun n thought i wer takin piss when i said i dint know wot the she wer on bout, lost her rag n floored me... made me look really "good" gettin accused of stuff i hadnt done n takin a crack 4 wot my m8 had dun, luckily i dint have 2 do 2 much explaining cos my m8 came outta demps a few mins later n recognised her psycho bird n lass i wer wi, sumhow every1 saw the funny side but it dint go anywhere else wi the lass after that cos my mates scared her & she wanted someone who looked unique (i.e. dint have a double)
Any1 else had disasters like them?

More like me 1stgay kiss. I was on holiday with all my staright lads friend, we were on a 18-30 caravan park in newkey (classy) ! We where is the phenox club (provided by the camp site) and this block eyed me up I wasn't out at this point and love the thrill!! I chatted to him after about 6 double vodkas, but was just waisted! But me pissed = horney git and rather naughty so I let all me barriers down and pulled him! Me mates were is shock as no one ever expected it from me! Aswe walke back to the caravans me by this point paraletic, tripped and fell down underneath the startic caravan! RETARD!! lets just say the bloke didn't speak to us again!
Ironically he ended up at leeds uni but I've only seen him once and hey as I've lost 3 stone he don't recognise me! He's also a minger!! (i'm sure he's a lovely bloke really)
The only plus is me mate then had an idea I was a homo and they were cool! Sorted!
Had me best date at the livingroom in leeds! The bloke on the white grand piano played all the song requests we asked for
One of my worst was last year, with my American ex. It was a gorgeous night on tranquil Gold Beach in Oregon, and the stars were out, etc. etc. so I thought it would be a great idea to take her to the beach. Unfortunately, I didn't bring a torch and forgot the tide was coming in. Cue ex and I running up the beach getting incredibly lost and getting wet/cut by broken glass and shingle/covered in water and sand.
We got in and decided to have a shower together, only to find that the boiler in our hotel room was broken, so sat around shivering and gritty with sand. She made me some coffee to warm me up, which contained non-dairy creamer. I had an allergic reaction to the non-dairy creamer and spent the night vomiting clutching my stomach in agony. And the only sodding TV channel we got was 'Curry County Local News' with news items like, "Local Man's car failed to start in Brookings this morning." The restaurants shut at 6pm too, so we ended up surviving on a 1kg bag of ruffled crisps and a bottle of lukewarm Pepsi all day.
Here's one off the top of my head. When i was in Vancouver i went for dinner with this guy. Things were great and everything. and then he dragged me to some gay club. At one point he went off to get us both drinks and i sat and waited........and waited...........and waited. I eventually went for a wander and saw him on the dancefloor with some guys. When i spoke to him he was like "oh sorry, i got talking to friends" He forgot I existed :D
Aww bless Steve & Alice u win on datin disasters i think, i've got plenty more of my date disaster stories.
Best un has 2b meetin up wi this girl who was stayin at her auntys, she took me back there n we got abit carried away, her aunty walked in n caught us, the extra twist in the story is that her aunty is a lecturer in the environment studies dept at this uni & my lectures recently got moved there, kinda recognised her givin me a dodgy "do i know u" look when she walked past us other week, hopefully she dun recognise me cos since then i had my hair cut short n put on weight. I dunno her name either, which i guess is a kinda blessing

Alcohol helps guys score. Hence the phrase "drink till he's cute." Explain why the only time guys come on to me is when they are drunk.

Well, it's easier for someone to have the courage to come onto you when they are under the influence of alcohol and are in that sort of environment. So it's not always because you are not good looking. People just have rubbish social skills :)
Oh, i'm talking bollocks aren't i? Trying to be optimistic doesn't suit me :D
Got another 1 of my disasters that I thought I'd share...
Know when u've not dun an essay n then spend the night b4 writin it, i'd dun that & had been on the verge of droppin asleep all day, completely 4got that I'd agreed 2 go on a double date (well blind date 4 me) wi 1 of my m8's who wer tryin 2 set her mate up, so like u do u go 2 cinema's n am not sure wot happened, must have been a combination of the dark cinema, me been tired n boring film, but i jus crashed n burned in style, fell asleep on my dates shoulder n dribbled in me sleep... still tryin 2 live that one down
