Funniest/Oddest Date You Ever Had?

Years ago, not too long after the online dating thing got going, I was single, and thought what the heck, let's give this a go. Surprisingly, after posting a picture and profile, I had several what I call nobbles, and enjoyed email back and forth with a number of charming ladies. Several I finally asked out on a "get to know you date" and to be honest, I didn't know quite what to expect. So I went into it with a "I'm going to have fun and enjoy a date and dinner no matter how it turns out". Off I went, and after a half dozen or so fund dates, I ran into one that to this day ahs me chuckling to myself, while at the same time wondering if this gal ever found anyone.

As soon as we were seated at a table in a rather nice Italian place, I began chatting, you know, the get to know one another chit-chat, and suddenly, she pulled out a 5x8 tablet which had lots of writing on it. She then began to ask me questions, one after another, sometimes checking a line on the tablet, sometimes drawing a line through it. After a few questions, with me smiling and with a bit of a chuckle, I asked her what this was all about. "Simple" she replied, "I have 50 qualifiers here, and depending upon your answer, we will or won't have a second date." Yah, I was nice for the remainder of my grilling and the dinner, but when we left I told her, "I don't know what you came up with; but I won't be calling you; but thanks for an interesting date!"

I met up with a woman in Manchester. I met her at the train station but when I got there she was on the phone. I recognised her from her picture. I smiled to confirm it was me but she didn’t end the phone call. We started walking but she was still on the phone, so I felt like I was stalking her. It was so awkward. We went to the cinema and had a drink, she came off the phone eventually. She was boring and loved herself. It was rubbish.
