A recent discussion with a tallfriend brought up the subject of bad or disasterous dating experiences.
We both have had a few, the most recent one for me was being stood up with a creative excuse. She left my mobile number at home after she left. Yes it does happen to men too!
Well for me it's clearly a case of having to kiss a few frogs on the way to finding my princess.
Any other frog stories out there to share?

OK Reachtothesky....You just made me have to take back the "theirs no romance in the world anymore" comment in this case though I'm OK with that....
YOU GO GIRL...LOL
Allurable, hear is one from my books,I Was set up with this guy. kinda bookish but seemed down to earth & fun first date went pretty well. second date went from bad straight to hell...we went out to dinner at this great restaurant on the beach after a couple of drinks he starts telling me about his ex ( which we all know can be par for the course.) I get the full details of here affair (trying not to squirm) He throws me for a complete loop. What to say when it turns out she left him for another woman.Talk about being unmanned. Not to mention he came unglued in the restaurant I had to pour him into the car & drive him home poor sod.
Bigmart, You must have some handy phone skills that you have a 100% on date attendance. A gold star is being sent your way.....

Oh yes, the joys of dating....Why must it be like a visit to the Dentist? My dating nightmare was with someone who was 5'3". Which was fine by me, because we seemed to hit it off at first. So, we went to the movies and after that he suggested Chinese food. He let me pick between two resturants, so I picked the one I'd never been to. When we got there he proceeded to tell about his dead wife and how this was where they had thier first date! He gave me blow by blow details, this is wehere we sat, blah, blah, blah. It was creepy! Her name was Rebecca, so I dubbed him Mr. Danvers, after the character in the book. Ugg!

I'm pleased to say I've never been stood up, but I once got in touch with a woman who was 5'7" in her stocking feet, but she had decided that as I was 6'4" she wouldn't be seen with me without 3" heels on. Needless to say she was new to the concept of heels and was, to say the least, very unsteady. We were to meet in Cardiff in front of a fountain that was under repair. I was already there, so when she arrived she held out her hand to greet me and tripped over a 3" hose pipe, toppled over on one of the heels and collapsed in a very undignified way, at my feet.
Difficult to pull a date back from that point..................and all because she felt she would appear too short without the heels.

Redhead, there a great outcome to every situation... but SHOPPING? only a woman!
My stand up meant I could could catchup with a close friend and we had lunch overlooking the gorgeous Sydney harbour, the bridge and the opera house in my bestest ever restaraunt!
