my blind date was a disaster.....


Question Posted Saturday January 7 2006, 10:40 pm

I went on a blind date today and it didnt excactly turn out the way I wanted it to. Well for starters, I had agreed to meet him at a local coffee shop with the couple that set us up. He was late and when he did show up he didnt look too happy when he saw me for the first time. He didnt offer to buy me anything to drink or eat, and the whole time we ended up talking about his friends or his business. He didnt ask me any questions about me or my personal life or interests, which indicated that he wasnt too crazy about me. We all talked for about a half hour, and when the couple the introduced us had to leave, my date looked at his watch and said he had to go. He never offered me his number or asked for mine. He actually looked like he couldnt wait to get out of there. The other couple looked surprised and thought we would have stayed longer. My friend (the wife of the other couple) I think felt bad and invited me over to her place afterwards.
Is it just me, or was my blind date really rude? I don't understand what I did to make him act like this, the whole time I was polite and engaged him in conversation.
Any feedback will be appreciated. I rate high!

Every one is quick to assume that the guy was a complete asshole..maybe he was a bit. I remember so many years ago when i first met my girlfriend, it was a blind date set up by my friend, anyhow...if i remember correctly, i hardly even said a word to her, and overall i thought the date had gone terrible, not because I wasent atracted to her, but because for whatever reason I could not think of things to say...Anyways to make a long story short, maybe this guy had the same problems..either way, no worries im sure a better one will come right after.
oh by the way, the girl who i acted kinda rude on my blind date, is now the love of my life. Give that a thought.

I know I am repeating more or less what everyone else wrote, but the guy was an idiot. Dont give it a second thought (though I know thats easier said than done), it wasnt your fault at all. In the very least, leaving all else as it was, he could have engaged in some polite conversation and been a bit more pleasant. Some people are just plain rude and, with some luck, it will come back and bite them on their behind one day.

Not all blind dates go well. This one obviously didn't. This guy sounded like a total jerk;even if he didn't like you romantically, he could've at least been nice. Forget about it. I don't really know why he acted like that, but some people are assholes. Don't take it personal.

No worries-you're date was totally a rude jerk. I mean, even if you guys didn't have any interest in one another, he could of at least asked about you instead of ranting about his personal business. Don't worry-you did nothing wrong...just don't be bent up about the whole ordeal. I hope I helped!

I hate to say he sounds like a first class jerk.

He was rude. He doesn't sound like anyone I would go out with again. I mean really, he could have at least made an attempt at getting to know you a little.

I'm sure it wasn't you. Maybe he just didn't want to come in the first place. Whatever the reason, be glad its over! There are other guys out there who are better than he is.

Hope you find one soon! :)

your date was extremely rude. it seems to me like he didnt want to go at all. or he was bored. you should not take it personally. he's just a jerk. don't let his mean behavior get you down. you seem like a polite person. you did nothing wrong. he was just selfish and a complete jerk. forget him and move on. pretend it never happened.

As far as I see it, your date was a selfish asshole. I mean, he didn't get you anything to eat or drink, showed no interest in you and talked the whole time about his friends and his business. Pfuit! I don't think you should even want his phone number. Why would you possibly want to talk to him if he doesn't like you and all he wants to talk about is his friends and his business? Don't feel bad. You did everything you should have; you had good manners and engaged him in conversation. You can't predict the minds of SOME jerks out there
