We've all been on nightmare first dates. I'm talking dates that make you wish it was socially acceptable to simply stand up in the middle of the restaurant and say: "I actually hate you. I am leaving forever now. Goodbye." Unfortunately, most people don't have the gall to walk out and are forced to run down the clock until the bill comes.
The only real upside is that these folks got to witness these horrible dates, and they went online to share the stories with all of us. We hope these stories make you laugh a little and remind you that everyone who puts themselves out there ends up having an awkward encounter or two. But it's worth the trial and error to finally find that special someone.
