I go on a lot of dates, so I'm curious as to what's the best or worst date you have been on? Recently, I would have to say the strip club. Before that...horseback riding...

Worst: I was invited to the county fair. When we got there his plan was to not pay and to instead jump the fence. Which he did... and then took off like a bat out of hell. Me, yeah, I jump it too because I'm trying to be all cool like him. But my style is to be casual so as to not cause suspision. Of course I get caught. Do they open a gate for me somewhere and tell me to leave? Oh hell no. They said 'Go back out the way you came.'

That's right. I had to climb BACK over the fence in front of them.

All along I had entrance money, enough for both of us, in my pocket. So I went to the pay booth and paid my way in. Never seen him the rest of the night. Took the bus home.

  I have a very similar experience actually. This is one of my first dates too. I was to go to a rock festival with this guy who I'd been seeing for a couple of weeks. We had a date at the town centre, where we were supposed to take a bus to the festival area. He didn't show up, but I thought he was running late so I waited around for a while. A group of 5 guys came to catch the bus, and the drop dead gorgeous one started to chat me up. He insisted I'd go with them, "as he wouldn't show" but I refused, as I had promised to this other guy I'd be there. Of course, he never showed, I wasn't that into him in the first place, and I passed the opportunity to go with the cutest guy who had ever talked to me!
  
  Okay, so I make my way to the festival, paid the shit load to get in, hoping to find that cute guy again, but manage to find that guy who stood me up. He didn't say A WORD to me, so I kind of gathered I'd been dumped. As I couldn't find the cute guy again, I called up a friend of mine to meet me there. He came, but he refused to pay for a ticket, so we ended up going around the fence to find a spot to sneak through. We never found one.
  
  Talk about a bad date...

Damn..."inmyredhead" That sucks...I would say my worst is when the guy showed up to dinner he had a glass-eye, a weird growth on his face & coke-bottle glasses...Non of which I remembered the night I met him, because I had beer goggles on ..., I sat there trying not to look at the growth on the side of his face & carry on a normal conversation.....

best date, was took her to play in her first poker tournament. She ended up making the final table. She was so happy. Always good to make your date happy.

worst date with with a girl i knew had a crush on me. We ended up talking a lot on the phone and via IMs. When it came time for the actual date, had nothing to say to each other. talk about uncomfortable silences. Lesson learned, don't talk too much before actually meeting in person.

My worst date was also the funniest date:
After a cool dinner in a luxury place with my ex-gf, I realised that i lost my wallet. I couldn't have paid the bill and almost for an hour with stupid excuses, i tried to find my wallet around. Guess how embarrassing and disgraceful for me..

My best date was in 2008 at New year's Eve.. Just me and my gf..

I dated a photographer in San Francisco. I was going to compete in a beauty pageant that year and needed pictures. So on a New Year's Day we went to Baker Beach where I could pose in little more than sheer veils. We hiked all over the Golden Gate area, then went out to an evening of Chinese Food. I then tripped, he grabbed me, and we kissed. We were boyfriend and girlfriend till work ran out on the bay area and I had to move. And he took all kinds of pictures of me in the meantime.

I met a chick through a personal ad in the Penny Saver. She turned out to be a porker who took speed to try and lose weight, was bipolar or schitzophrenic and kept telling me that as soon as she got her "inheritance" she was going to pay for a sex change operation and become a man.

Then at the end of the night, she wanted me to do her, but wouldn't let me see her naked because when she had her kid, she "ripped" and was embarrassed for me to see it.

My best dates are when I was 14-15 and starting to date.
The expectation and excitement of that time can never be matched when you get older.
I think...

I have terrible dates all the time..

But i would have to say the worst is when a friend (she thought this was funny) set me up on a blind date with an heroine/crackhead. He was awful looking, his face was covered in these... mumps.. and had these horse teeth.. I don't mean to sound shallow.. well hell, I am..

I have a serious sleeping disorder. My problem is not getting sleep but keeping awake. One time we went to a movie and I fell asleep. I was awakened by the guard. It turned out the movie house was already closed and everyone including my date already went home. She never talked to me again.

Shy

My worst was meeting someone from online, he was so perfect (so I thought) he was handsome, smart, head screwed on right, so yummy. When we met it is the Dutch thing to do the kiss kiss thing on the cheeks, my goodness his stink slapped me so hard, he just stunk, he lifted his arm and the whole city centre passed out, he talked I just about fainted or threw up, and he had this hard hard laugh so everyone looked then smelt him. He wanted to kiss me goodbye at the end of the boring date of listening to the ins and outs of his work and I just shook his hand and RUN!!!!

Best date, started on a Friday, he drove to me the 2 hours, we had a cup of coffee and talked and talked, he went home and called me early the next morning asking if I was busy.
He done the little things that mean a lot that was also romantic **heart melts** the whole weekend we talked and shopped, 7 pairs of shoes later, many amazing talks and good food then he told me a secret, He has a girlfriend, I heard all the things like "it is over, waiting for her to get her own place" hmmm So it ended up a bad date, bright side he was telling the truth.
Now it is 1 year later, he has been single for 10 months, we see each other a lot, he is still amazing and nothing has faded, we often work together which ends up us travelling together and saving company costs on hotel rooms LOL, oh man now I am missing him.. ok am off to call him...

internet dates are pretty much the worst. In real life people are different.

I went on a date once, with a girl who told me she had AIDS. I think it was a nice way of telling me that I wasn't her type.

I was supposed to meet this girl for the first time at a cafe. I didn't have a car, so I had arranged to catch a ride with some friends who were going to town the same day. My incredibly slow friends took about forever and a half just randomly doing nothing before leaving, even though they knew I was supposed to meet this person at 1 pm. We had planned to be in town in good time, but I finally got there almost an hour and a half late. Surprisingly, she was still waiting at the cafe, but the date was seriously awkward. I spent most of it wishing I was on the other side of the planet.

The best date I have ever been on was with my (now) husband. It was our first date and he wanted to impress me--and he did.

We met via an online dating service and had been talking for close to 3 months before we actually had our first date. When we met, in person, for the first time, he arrived at my door with two dozen absolutely breathtaking longstem red roses in a gorgeous vase.

Then, we went to the airport, where a private jet flew us to Lake Tahoe where we saw a jazz festival that afternoon. He surprised me with the trip to Tahoe--I didn't have a bag packed so while we were there, he took me shopping and basically told me to buy whatever I needed for the night and the next day. I hate to say it--but it was so much fun for me to be able to shop at this really expensive store without any limits! Mind you, I had been in college and graduate school for the last 8 years--and had always had to watch every penny.

After the jazz festival, we went to dinner at an exclusive restaurant in Tahoe, where we had the chef's table and everyone catered to our every need--and it was just an amazing meal.

I felt like Cinderella. He totally blew me away. I was on my way to falling in love with him before that first date as we had so much in common and would talk for hours before we met. But seeing his face, with all those red roses--and then just the *care* he took with the entire date--well, I fell all the way in love with him that night.

And I am as in love today as I have ever been. We've been together for 9 years and I still feel giddy and butterflies when he walks through the door each day.

I had taken this beautiful girl out for lunch in Leh, India. We ordered for some chicken, which came in a large bowl full of curry with one leg piece floating in it. To make matters worse, while walking downtown after the insipid lunch, the girl tells me that my fly had been open all morning.

Life Sucks!!
