Your funny/crazy story about a date.

Does everybody have a funny or crazy story that they want to share about meeting someone online for a date?
Here's mine.
So I met this guy about a month ago on lava, and we seemingly hit it off.

HOLY S*&T! That's so scary..! I don't think to this day I would find that funny.. wow.. Yeah, you were in some serious trouble. That guy was whacked. Thank god you didn't get hurt, raped, whatever..
I think that experience alone would have turned me away from OLD for years if not forever.
I'm betting you're more cautious now...
The closest I've gotten to a crazy date was flying down to NJ to meet a man that I was talking to for a couple months online. I booked a hotel room, and we shared a pizza, kids pictures, and a couple kisses, then he left. Sure, i could have been in trouble, and look back on that as being really lucky that he wasn't a psycho..I'll never do that again.
wow.

Holy cow, girl!
Oh my God, that is extremely scary!! What is even scarier is that you probably thought you had a pretty good judge of character (or feeling) about this individual and didn't expect anything to happen.
Not judging, cause I'm guilty of going to a man's residence and/or having him come to mine on a first meet -- thankfully nothing extreme happened. Just last week, I had a gf who met a guy on Craigslist and he came to her house for dinner as their first meet. Mind you they are still seeing each other (he's still coming to her house) and another gf who let a guy move in with her since he was moving to our state after meeting him one time.
Whew, really makes you look at your past and say "thank God!". I'm 45 now, so I'm not as wild as I use to be but boy I've done some things that truly could have turned out to be totally horrible!!
Thanks for posting though; although it doesn't fit the funny/crazy story headline. Gee, I couldn't even post anything cause I was so moved by your story! Truly scary, indeed!!
Like you, I would have drove home too. I don't think I would have been tired though -- I would be so wired and as soon as I got home I probably would have dropped to my knees and THANKED GOD!!
I have had many stories but I'll share one that happened recently...
HOLY NIKES BATMAN!!!!
THAT IS THE SCARIEST STORY EVER....
Mine is kind of funny. I went on this date with this guy who didn't have a picture, this was back when online dating was free and first getting started it was on a site called Relationship.com only rich people had digital cameras and scanners and the online ofoto, snapfish and shutterfly weren't even a glimmer in their creators minds yet so there were very few pictures online. So anyhow this guy described himself as kind of looking like keanu reeves...he wasn't bad looking at all, I wouldn't describe him as keanu but wasn't ugly remotely so I thought, cool this will be good. BOY WAS I WRONG!
So we sit down...I don't know if the guy was nervous but he had diareah of the mouth...he just jammered on for hours...then when I could get a word in edgewise and would start to tell a story it would remind him of a story and he would interrupt me and start telling me another story, he went on about how he made 80k a year, had a boat, a house, this that and the other thing, I was making 11 bucks an hour at the time, newly divorced, had barely a pot to pee in and was having to rob peter to pay paul most of the time, it was rough hearing him go on and on about all the stuff he had and all the fun trips and blah blah blah, eventually I was just looking at my nails I was so bored...so it was snowing pretty good out so I just said I really needed to get going because of the snowstorm that I had to stop at the grocery store and pick up a few things becuase I was probably not going to work the next day, so I asked him if he needed me to pitch in for dinner...he said YES! Which I graciously gave him money but I was just livid, I was like this donkey just went on and on about how he made all this money and had all this stuff and he couldn't pay for my 9 dollar chicken pot pie...LOL
He tried to kiss me at the car but I gave him the old friendship hug! BLECH!
He called the very next day and left me a message saying how great of a time he had, YEAH BOZO because you had a date with yourself and since you think your so great no wonder you had such a great time!
haha your guys stories are pretty funny.
OMG! How scary! So did he try to contact you the next day or ever again!????
My funny story...
I was new to online dating back in 2003. I started talking to this guy Mike I really was smitten about. We decided to meet at this Italian restaurant called Maggiano's. I raved about how I had never been there...it had gotten great reviews. He wanted to take me there. He was so great up till the date. We had a great time talking at dinner and I felt major chemistry. BUT when the check came he *winced* loudly at it, but he insisted on paying for it...that made me feel uncomfortable. Then on the way to the car he was holding the doggie bag (the portions at this place are enormous...no way we could eat all of it!) He said, "I'm really going to enjooooy this lasagna and ravioli for lunch tomorrow!" I was shocked b/c there were two separate to-go cartons, one with MY lasagna in it...LOL...and he wasn't going to let me take it home!!!! hahahahahaha.... He actually tried to kiss me when we got to my car... No way was I going to kiss him after he acted like a donkey. Can you believe he wouldnt offer me my lasagna to take home!!! I thought he was just being polite to hold the doggie bags for us, but it was just a maneuver. I thought it is just a given that you can have your leftovers when out to dinner no matter who pays.. LOL.
EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
He took YOUR leftovers? That's kind of gross.
THAT's exactly the FIRST thing that came to my mind too!!
Ewww.. that is gross.
