So sadly my date tonight didn't go very well. Hell it was awful.

We went to see Lesbian Vampire Killers (awful film) but it really was a waste of an evening.

I couldn't start or sustain a conversation, was inarticulate, unfunny and incredibly akward about my personal space. I did not put across a good impression at all and my self-esteem took a major battering.

So now I'm feeling quite sad. Anybody feel like calling the Wahmbulance for me?

Get over it. You haven't had a bad date till your explaining to her parents why your arm is broken and your girlfriend is hospatilized.

Been there, done that.
Stupid undiscovered msg allergies...

As for the OP, nevermind, you'll have plenty more dates with people you can't talk to. It's the one you talk to till 4am that you want to hang on to.

I have never had a date so the best I can say is, you are an idiot for taking your date to a film called Lesbian Vampire Killers, but plenty of other fish reside in the sea.

Please note that it does NOT count as a date when they are talking about their current boyfriend and how great of a listener you are.

You think that's bad, you should try having your date get off with one of your best friends right infront of you.

This is true. Don't feel too bad that you had trouble making conversation. One day you'll find somebody and conversation will come just as easily to you as breathing.

Does it make me a bad person because I've done this? Actually,
It kinda led to a three way surprisingly...

I've only had the problem where my date (the other person) is terrible (as in we don't get along on several levels) and I can't think of a polite way to say "I hate you, let's never talk again" so we muddle through the evening for a few awkward hours before parting ways.

What if you met her at a B-film / exploitation horror festival? Both major film genres with massive cult followings, both male and female.

Point being, for someone who is either too scared of girls to ask them out or to immature to figure out that they don't in fact have cooties, you sure have a big mouth.

As for the OP, first dates are often unfortunate. It's an unfortunate risk you've gotta take. Even if you don't realize it now, you didn't want to be dating that one, you just didn't know it at the time. She was kind of mean for beating up on your self esteem anyway, what is her problem?

Pretty much this. If can't talk to them naturally then somethings up. Someone will come along that you'll want to talk to for hours. That's the one you want to watch out for.

No Wahmbulance. The only logical course of action is to admit you are a genetic social reject who does not deserve to be happy on account of your passive effrontery towards God's noble creation, swear off dating once and for all no matter how lonely and starved for affection you get because it still hurts less than being rejected, and bury yourself so far in the billions of terabytes of online porn that eventually you won't even consider a woman a woman unless she's on-screen and doing something that clearly demonstrates the price of her dignity.

At least that's what I've done. Try it and see if it goes just as well for you.

Note: get seriously into anime. Now that you're a social reject, you'll suddenly get all the jokes and plot points you never got before. Also, there are catwomen.

Yeah, happens. Though sometimes the charge for assault is just a slap on the wrist. =D


I've never had a bad date but every girl I've been out with theres been some easy topic we can always talk about constantly. Unfortunately, the worst problem is when you don't like the person you're with anymore and the whole situation becomes unbearable.

Another blog entry for the Escapist?

Anyway, it's just a date, you'll get over it. Go buy some chips or something.

Definitely. I've never been good at talking to anyone, let alone girls, but a couple of years ago I met this gorgeous brunette from Scotland, we got talking, and ended up as a couple not long after. Thing is, I felt like I could talk to her about pretty much anything and I just felt so comfortable with her, even when my younger brother was dicking around in the background... Only reason we split up was because we couldn't carry on a long distance relationship, but we're still really close friends and we've stayed friends even though we've not seen each other for 3 years. The feelings are still there though, and as I said I just felt really comfortable and natural talking to her.

Happened to me. Fortunately, I was gonna dump her anyway so it just saved effort on my part. Though her friends still tried to give me frak about it. Fortunately he wasn't a best friend, just a mate through a mate, though he did/does have an annoying habit of staring at YOU, not his date who's jawlocked to his face, but YOU, whilst he's making out with them. Doesn;t half give you the creeps.
