VIDEO: FIRST DATE HORROR STORIES!

First dates are generally a mixture of exciting and awkward, which can either lead to a treasured relationship or a true horror story. But, if we are honest, we aren't really interested in the Cinderella fairytale, we want to hear all those shocking horror stories about terrible worst dates! Wow, these poor people really did land a bad date or messed up juuust enough to damage any sense of pride!

1. Went on a blind date with a friend of a friend and the first thing out of her mouth was 'Well Sarah wasn't kidding when she said you weren't tall' (Spoiler alert: I am fairly short). 5 minutes in, told me she didn't really see it going anywhere, but proceeded to order a Grey Goose martini and a $30 appetizer for herself.
   
   
2. Immediately after the date, I spent 20 minutes complaining via WhatsApp about how bad the date was. I thought I was talking to my friend with the same name as my date. It was my date and not my friend.
   
   
3. Before we got marries, my husband went on a first date where he took her to a Hibachi restaurant. She ordered the twin lobster tails dinner and proceeded to tell him 'My boyfriend will love this' while boxing up the 1.5 lobster tails she didn't eat. They didn't go out again, needless to say.
   
   
4. This guy from work asked me out on a date after a few days of flirting with me out of nowhere (we worked together for like six months before he asked me out). I thought it was kind of odd that he was suddenly interested in me, but I agreed to go.
   I met him at his place and we took his car to dinner. When we came back, my windshield was smashed and two of my tires were flat. His response: 'Yeah sorry. I just got out of a bad relationship'.
   
   
5. We went for a romantic walk by the park. We saw a small raccoon. He screams like a prepubescent boy and it hisses at him as it calmly walks away from us. I comfort him, giggle, and call him silly-buns and, in the middle of my explanation about city animals and how to deal with them, he turns around suddenly and yells, 'You hurt my pride and you're using words I don't understand to explain something I don't f**king care about. I'm gone.
   
   
6. I had the bright idea to suggest zip-lining as a first date activity, even though I had zero experience. I should have just given up when I slammed into a tree on the little practice zip line. But, apparently I’m a glutton for punishment and decided to keep going. Halfway through, I had a small panic attack and they had to come and rappel me off the platform. All this time, my date just stared at me, dumbfounded.
   
   
7.  I was asked out by a cute co-worker who was from a neighbouring town. He showed up to fetch me and came in to meet my parents. My grandma happened to be there and said, 'Eric, it’s so great to see you, I just had coffee with your mom.'
   Grandma, how do you know Eric?' I asked.
   'His mom and I are cousins.' She replied.
   We went four-wheeling and hung out as friends and swore we’d never tell anyone at work that we totally dodged a keep-it-in-the-family bullet.
