Back from my HORRIBLE date.

[studytime45]

The guy would not stop talking. I just nodded. And nodded. And fucking nodded. I'm a very talkative, social person, and I couldn't get a word in edgewise.

And when he stopped talking for a second? And I could get a little anecdote in?? He'd say something like, "Ohhh sorry to cut you off, but look at that boat over there!". To be fair, we were in a scenic location, but WTF?? He did that at least twice. 

AND THEN, after our walk by the harbour, he says he'd rather not go to a restaurant, could he come to my place and we could order a pizza? I made up an excuse as to why that couldn't happen.

In the car, he leans over to kiss me and I kiss back (WHY??? WHY GOD!) and he just leaves his mouth open. That's his kissing technique. Gaping maw. So I stop kissing him and he tells me, "I know... I'm awful. I'm out of practice. I'm sorry...".

I told him a family thing had come up and could he please drive me home? So he did. And he told me to text him after the family thing was sorted. And I said "okay!" all brightly. Because I didn't want to hurt his feelings.

OH and the conclusion is that I haven't even eaten dinner. I'm soooo HANGRY.

Maybe you should text him that you don't feel like the two of you really connected and wish him well, so he isn't sitting around waiting for you.

[tripleshot]

Ew, he just left his mouth open? Has he ever kissed anyone before?

I know. I'm going to. I feel really badly that I didn't tell him I wasn't feeling it.

Sorry you had a shitty date.

I guess he out of practice on the dating scene too.

Oh. Man. I'm sorry.

[pantsparty]

Oh man. That is bad. Sorry you didn't even get some food out of the deal!

[papie]

Oh man that is awful. I don't miss dating

[bornbaker]

I'm sorry it was bad The kissing thing would have grossed me out. And pizza at your place instead of a restaurant? Creeeeepy! And cheap (on his part).

You deserve some wine and takeout!

[berbles]

WTF to someone inviting himself over - on the first date, no less.

[snickers]

sorry

[speckledfrog]

He just left it open? Like a baby bird. So weird! That sounds like a terrible date.

[oliveyou]

Oh man, I'm sorry it didn't go well!

[mcmel]

OMG a baby bird. Sorry your date was terrible. He sounds dreadful.

Amen sister.

[tacoflavoredkisses]

Yikes. I had a guy once who thought kissing meant "lick all around the mouth of the other person" and I had to stop him and ask why he was mopping my face with his tongue.

I'm sorry you had a bad time.

[Deleted]

Ugh. Youths need to learn that they hVe to at least buy dinner.

That is a shitty date. I had a couple of first meetups where the guy talked CONSTANTLY. It was the worst. At least I didn't have to kiss them afterwards! That kiss sounds horrendous.

I can't believe he tried to invite himself over to your place for pizza! Tacky.

I understand why you didn't tell him in the moment that you weren't into him. That is really hard to do. Much easier to do via text or email later. And I think in this case, as a first date, that is a perfectly fine way to handle it.

[wrathofkuus]

I am guffawing at "like a baby bird."

[cleo29]

That is not someone out of practice, that's a bad kisser. Period.

This, combined with your screenname...just...

Sorry your date sucked, study. I have given up on dating for the time being.

I was thinking the same thing. He wasn't "out of practice" so much as he had never been in practice.

[CakeLover]

He has no game! Cheap pizza at your place on the first date?

[flex]

Sounds like all he wanted to do was get laid.
