During my freshman year in college, I was approached by this really cute guy while I was at work. We talked and hung out for a while, and as it turns out, he was a really nice guy. One day, he decided to move in for a kiss. To this day, I gag every time I think about it. I guess he was trying to lay a wet one on me. The problem was that it was so wet his saliva was running down my chin. It’s the worst kiss I’ve ever had! I don’t like the idea of dog kisses, but I’d rather have had a dog lick my entire face than have someone’s spit running down it. Gross is a complete understatement! Even worse, he was five years older than me. Where the hell did he learn how to kiss? There’s just no justification. — Diana, 26

I met this guy online and chatted with him over the next two weeks. He seemed nice enough, so I invited him to come to a party with me. He did live two hours away, but he seemed quite fine with driving to see me. I saw a picture of him that looked okay. As I waited outside for him, I saw this short, long-haired guy with leather pants. Then the worst came. I saw his face, and yikes! He had the worst case of bug eyes I’ve ever seen! They literally looked like they were about to pop out of his head. And his jaw was all uneven. Feeling responsible for getting myself into this situation, we continued to the party. Well, not only was he hideous, but he would not stop trying to grope me below the belt in front of everyone. So, I got hammered that night and did have sex with him. Afterwards, he told me he loved me. This freaked me out! I hardly knew him. Plus, he was gross-looking and way annoying. I was still intoxicated and at the party, but I needed out. I told him I had to grab some CDs from my car, and I sped off. That whole night he called me approximately fifty-seven times and left twenty-three voicemails. Finally, I called him back but just to tell him I didn’t appreciate him giving me a phony picture and to tell him that he was the ugliest, most annoying person I’d ever met, that I never wanted to talk to him again, and then I hung up. He still called. So, I had to block his number and change my username. This one was whacked! I’m still scarred for life that I even kissed him! — Cassandra, 26

From Netscape…too funny to pass up

I had been dating this guy for about 2 months. I decided to stop in at a bookstore because we had a few moments to spare before the start of the movie we were going to see. After showing me a really romantic picture from a book he was looking at, he leaned toward me and, in a really sexy voice, asked if he could kiss me. Just when I was getting ready to pucker up, I saw the biggest booger hanging off his mustache. I was so disgusted that I refused to kiss him, and told him why. So he wiped it off his mouth and onto his pants, and then tried to caress my face with the same booger hand! He ended up seeing the movie by himself. — Lily, 24

OK this is just too good to not post. I had been talking to this very nice lady online and over IM and on the phone for a week or more. We decided that we should go out. I told her that there was a dinner at the Hard Rock Cafe and karaoke at a local theater afterwards on Friday night (an activity with other singles in the area) and would she like to go. She said she would love to. So I picked up my date at the established time and headed to the restaurant. We got there and were greeted by the ‘hostess’ of the party. The ‘hostess’ informed us that she had planned some ‘get to know each other’ activities and gave us instructions. Anyway, we both started participating in the activities. Now it turned out to be a fairly large group, maybe 50+ which is a lot of people. I thought it was great that my date was participating and she seemed to be having a good time. After a few minutes of the activity we sat ourselves at a table and proceeded to talk and visit. I was very attentive to her as this was her first “single activity”. Well we ordered dinner and visited some more. I introduced her to numerous other single people from the party. I thought everything was going fine and she was enjoying herself. Well when she finished her dinner she asked if she could borrow my cell phone, to which i replied “absolutely”. She walked to a quieter area of the restaurant to make a call. Now I am thinking she is checking on her kids, so when she returns I ask “is everything ok?”. She replied “yes…well actually I just called a friend to come and get me”. I could not believe it. WTH??? She said that there were too many people and it was too much for her. Well i was kinda shocked. I really did not know what to say so i just said “OK”. I have NEVER had a date leave in the MIDDLE of a date before. So this was a first for me. Ten minutes later she was gone. Now there is one for the books. LOL. Yeah, dating can suck

From a female reader

After conversing briefly with a gentleman on a dating website, I accepted his invitation to meet for lunch one Saturday.

Fearing for the safety of my children, I make it standard practice to not bring men I haven’t met to my home. So the plan was set for me to meet him in the Albertson’s parking lot and from there we would go to lunch.

As I drove into the parking lot I glanced around the area that I was to meet him and thought to myself “oh, he’s not here yet.”

Ok, maybe this wasn’t fair but I parked very far away from that area so that I could get a peek from a distance, just so I could have a chance to run if things just didn’t look right.

One of my favorite past-times in a crowded place is to people watch so while I was waiting there with nothing else to do, I noticed this little old, unshaven, dirty man sitting in his, I’d say 1980’s rusty old station wagon. He had used parts from other cars (different color cars) to replace the hood and one door that he had apparently picked up from the salvage yard.

My heart went out to him, I felt so sad. The little car was busting at the seams with probably everything he owned.

I watched him as he got out of his car. He went to the back, opened the hatch back and pulled out some of his belongings.

In order to close the door again he gave a couple of big shoves and held tightly to his belongings until the last second, when he quickly moved out of the way and slammed the door shut. I was impressed that he got the door shut without anything falling out. He then happily leaned up against his car and sat as if he was waiting for something or someone.

After this little show, I noticed it was way past the time for my date to show up. I wondered if I got the wrong time or wrong place or if I was just being stood up. He said he would be in a green car and I had not seen any green cars yet…. well, except for the partially green, white, red and rust colored car that the little homeless man had!

No, No No. I heard myself say over and over again. My heart started beating very fast…”Oh my Gosh!” He looked nothing like my dates picture. Was this man my date? My first inclination was to run, I said to myself “get out of here fast… he has not seen you…go!” …But then I heard that voice in my head, that I’ve heard Ohh… so many times, “What would Jesus do?” He wouldn’t drive away and leave someone feeling rejected.

I mustered the courage to drive over and say hi and when I got out of my car he walked up to me and placed a stack of papers in my hand. I looked down at them and they were all coupons to different eating establishments and each offered two free meals. “Pick where you want to go from these places, I won them on the radio.”

I wanted to say that I wasn’t interested but that voice in my head was still nagging at me. “What would Jesus do?”

Before I knew what I was doing I heard myself say… “Ok, I pick this one and I’ll meet you there.” Don’t get me wrong he was a very nice man but through conversation with him I found that he had been homeless for a short time, and he had been using the computer at the library to converse with women over the Internet. Needless, to say I later told him, that we didn’t have a lot in common but thank you for the nice lunch.

I found this tidbit posted on the netscape love channel. just had to share it.

I went and met this guy from the internet. I know I’m an idiot, but hear me out. So, he tells me to meet him five hours away. He said he’d be filling up my tank and said we’d have the best time with unlimited booze. Since my car does well on gas, I said why not? I go there, and he gives me twenty-four dollars, a far cry from the sixty I was promised. Anyway, we drank a few shots. Then, ten minutes later, he said he was going on a beer run, which turned out to be a lie, and that he probably wouldn’t be back. So, I was pissed and drunk. Before he left, he did say I could chill in his cold living room since he didn’t want people to be in his bedroom while he was gone. He left me alone with his seven roommates. So, I decided to plot revenge. I was alone. Of course, nobody was talking to me. So, I did the unthinkable. He said no smoking cigarettes in the house. So, I emptied my entire ashtray (which was a cup of cola I had thrown my cigs in) in front of his bedroom door since he locks it. I hawked major loogies on his door. I urinated in a cup and tossed it on his door. Then I left him a hate letter saying I drove all this way for nothing and that he was the biggest, most selfish a**hole I’d ever met! Nobody knew! Then I left. The next day, he sent me an email. He told me that I was the ugliest person he’d ever seen, that I was fat, and that he didn’t really go on a beer run but had gone to his parents’ house because he couldn’t stand hanging out with me. He said all these mean things. So, although it did take twelve hours out of my life, I gathered this from my experience; From this day forward, I will never travel hours out of my way for a guy, especially one I hardly know. I don’t care how dope he sounds or what he promises. Beware, girls! — Diana, 21

From a female in WA

This is one dating story that was simply incredible. I have this friend who is a member of an online dating website. She has been talking to this fella online for just a couple of months. Well they finally decided to meet in ID. Here is the real kicker, after the first date they GOT MARRIED!!!!. I was shocked. Talk about first impressions being good. This dude must be one heck of a date. When I pick myself up off the floor I will have to remember to congratulate her.

This tidbit came to us from a nice lady via email. It is not really a story but it is funny none the less.

Women are like apples on trees. The best ones are at the top of the tree. Most men don’t want to reach for the good ones because they are afraid of falling and getting hurt.

Instead, they sometimes take the apples from the ground that aren’t as good, but easy pickings. The apples at the top think something is wrong with them, when in reality, they’re amazing. They just have to wait for the right man to come along, the one who is brave enough to climb all the way to the top of the tree.

Now Men……… Men are like a fine wine. They begin as grapes, and it’s up to women to stomp the shit out of them until they turn into something acceptable to have dinner with.
