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 had a date that was almost identical. It was like a job interview. I tried to peek at his shirt cuffs and/or the palms of his hands to see if all his questions were written there. At the end of the meal, we went outside (so I could warm up...the air conditioning had been set to deep freeze)....and he told me, after the one lunch together, that he had never felt this way about anyone since he had met his (now deceased) wife in high school. That's when I knew for sure that he was a nut, and when I got home I emailed him and told him I did not feel the same way, but that we must always remember the lovely time we had together...LOLOL!!!
