I considered myself lucky for having never been in the position to do the whole 'dating' thing...until I became single this year and had no immediate future boyfriend to hook up with...so...as you do when you fall off a horse, you get up, dust yourself off, and get straight back in the saddle. Here's what happened:
I met a guy in a club. He asked for my number. I told him 'no' but said I would take his. Next day I phoned him & arranged a coffee the following week.
When I showed up for the coffee date he had cuts and bruises all over his face. I was polite and didn't ask. I didn't have to wait long for an explanation. The guy races cars for a hobby and had been involved in quite a bad car crash the day before. He had been in hospital...and had discharged himself that morning...TO COME ON THE DATE!!!
I told him I would have understood had he postponed, but he said 'you wouldn't have believed me'.
When I later told people, some thought it was cute because it showed he made the effort. But I just thought 'NAH!!! Too keen!!!'
You have to give it to this guy for effort...I mean geez. Hospital to the coffee shop to meet you..WOW!!!
I kind of agree, here. Too keen, IMHO, would be putting off a surgery or something similar. I would have definitely given him a second cup of coffee. Just my two cents.

LOL...within 5 minutes of meeting him I had decided that I was definitely not interested in any kind of future. But I felt so bad that he had discharged himself to go on the date! And he had whiplash...being a physio I gave him some free advice
Then he asked whether I'd like to go for food...I didn't because I was 8 weeks out from my show and on my diet. But eventualy I felt so bad for him that I agreed to go and we had a meal together: I had a chicken salad. He kept insisting I try a cocktail. I drew the line and we left it there. The guy just didn't GET the fact that I was eating clean. It had no future, whatsoever!!

I know!! It's funny thinking about it...but too keen!!!
I am still searching for Mr. Right (if there is such a thing!!)
I went on a date with this army guy...well his friend ended up tagging along for dinner, at first I wasn't to happy but his friend was cool so w.e. At the end of the date this guy paid for my meal...but with gift cards he got for xmas! unno wut you guys think...but to me it seemed real cheap, in reality his relatives paid for my dinner...
The funny thing is though, me and his friend kept in touch and we still talk over msn, lol but I dont talk to the guy I went on a date with
My worst date ever started going down hill when his two best friends joined us, and took a kamikaze dive when he poked one of my breasts and said, "Hey, are those things real?"

Yeah, I'm a real loser magnet.
Your date poked at ur boobs or his friends?! and dont worry your not alone lol I have an invisible tattoo on my forehead that says "If your a loser come make out with me" only they can see this lol
R2D2...I dunno....I guess everyone has their own opinions, but he must have really liked you to have left the hospital to go see you. I think that's extremely sweet.

My date poked my boobs. Pretty hard, too. I'm not sure if he really thought they were implants, or if he just desperately wanted to cop a feel.
I have that tattoo. I also have one that says, "Weirdos, I want to hear the story of your life."
Firespinner...OMG...What planet was this guy from, that he thought that was OK? What did you say to him? Idk what I would do....awkward!!!!
I said, "I think it's time you took me home." Apparently he thought I meant for something other than dropping me at my front door. He had the nerve to try to kiss me after that. He moved in, and I said, "G'night," and slammed the door in his face. And he called me the next day. Ugh!
I told my friends about it, and we took every song we could think of with the word memories in it and changed it to mammaries in commemoration of the doomed date. To this day, I still sing, "Hold on to the night, hold on to the mammaries." (you know, the cheesy old Richard Marx song.)
