‘Even though it was our first date, he
took me to meet his parents. His mum
asked me tons of personal questions
- like the number of sexual partners
I’ve had. I left after 10 minutes.’
— MEGHAN, 22
‘This cute dude took me to the movies.
When we went up to buy our tickets,
he told me I should pay because “I’d
picked the movie.” When I suggested
we get soft drinks and popcorn, he
pulled one of those unlimited refill
popcorn bags out of the trash can and
shamelessly had the person at the
counter refill it. He just lied and told
them he’d spilled his Coke on it and
that’s how it got so crinkled and
brown. Cheapest date ever.’
— CHRISTY, 26
‘I met a guy on an app. When I arrived,
he was with another girl. He didn’t
explain who she was, so I only found
out when he got up to use the men’s
room. She was the mother of his child.
He thought it was cool to bring his
baby mama on our date.’
— LAINE, 26
‘He asked me if I’d ever done anal
before. Then he proceeded to tell me
that women were given butt holes for
things to be put in them, and men were
given butt holes for things to come
out of them. I left him at the bar.’
— TAYLOR, 25
‘I went out for coffee with this guy who talked about
his “low-key” stalking habits with his ex. They were
actually high-key. He told me he’d follow her home,
drive by her house, and check her social media. Then
he turned to me and said, “So what I’m getting at is
that I finally realised I’m ready to move on and start
over with someone new.” Obvi, he wasn’t.’ — AMANDA, 22
