" Found out he was married . "
Recently,u/PepsiMaxHoeaskedr/AskReddit, “What happened on the first date that made you realise there won’t be a 2nd?” And we thought we’d share some of the best responses.
1.“He desperately tried to win his ex-girlfriend back at the bar we were at. She was the bartender. He picked the venue. I spent the night awkwardly sipping my drink watching my date make a fool of himself.”

2.“A guy told me he had anger issues so bad he would black out, sometimes for days. I never went on a second date because, you know, I don’t want to end up dead in a ditch somewhere.”
– Dvonlovesmusic12
3.“Talking to a guy for ages. It’s midnight and he says he just has to see me right now. I met him down the road and he picked me up in his car. I thought we were just going to talk but instead he just takes off into nowhere – his car has no door handle.”
" He then block about an hour away on a remote country road and starts hollo at me that he knows it ’s me that is putting messages about him on goggle box and the radio . Also something about me controlling all the drones follow him . I convince him I require to piss and ran off into the President Bush . I expect a few hours then used my Mobile River to call police and had to give GPS locations as the road I was on did n’t exist on Google maps . "

4.“We were having dinner and she was making little catty, snide remarks about absolutely everybody and everything. Other customers in the place, the staff, the decor of the place, telling me about the bad habits of her coworkers, how her best friend was a slut, etc. Yep, not the kind of person I wanted to know any better.”

5.“Said my music taste was shit – I can appreciate not everyone has the same taste, but it was the way he went on about it being awful! I called my best friend as an ‘emergency’ and she gate-crashed our date, I dropped him home and we had a sleepover and watched horror movies.”

6.“He tried to change my drink order with the waitress because he thought I should have something more ‘ladylike’. I didn’t make it all the way through the first date, let alone a second.”

7.“Found out he was married.”

8.“Guy was from a small town about an hour away from me. He wanted to meet at a bar, which was fine. His first comment was that me wearing jeans was a ‘bold choice’ and that he preferred his women to ‘dress like women’. I ordered a beer that wasn’t Bud/Miller and he and the bartender made fun of me for being too uppity to drink ‘normal beer’. On paper he seemed great, but upon meeting him in person I knew he wanted a little lady to cook and take care of him and look pretty. No thank you.”

9.“For ‘dinner’ he drove us to his mom’s house, opened the fridge and said ‘anything you can use in there to make us something to eat?’ I called a cab and left.”

10.“He didn’t know what war Hitler was from.”
– AccomplishedShock293
11.“He spent the entire time we were at the restaurant talking about how much he liked owls. How he lays on his bed every night and listens to videos of them with the lights off, and, ‘did you know, they don’t really hoot? They mostly screech’! Then he demonstrated.”
– Its_Curse
12.“He wouldn’t let me order my own food.”
– fake_tan
13.“Less than an hour into our date he asked me what kind of birth control I was on. It was because the last girl he dated refused to take birth control, got pregnant, and then decided to have an abortion — and he didn’t want that to happen again.”
– al0velycreature
14.“She asked me if I enjoyed things likeStar Warsand said it was a red flag. I paid for that dinner and cut my losses.”
– ElonsMuskyFeet
15.“She seemed like she was trying to sell me a water heater, not get to know me.”
– RaisinFox
16.“He kept touching things in the art museum. Until I told him off. Then he just kept touching all the signs that said ‘do not touch’ and giggling. We were both in our 20s…”
– madameporcupine
17.“Was 22, she was a nurse and seemed nice, I was in college. Was at a party at her friends house she suggested. Showed up and bunch of dudes were doing what I later found out was meth. I made it through the night (didn’t do the meth) but was like ‘uhh maybe this isn’t the girl for me’.”

18.“I ordered pasta at an Italian restaurant and he ordered a salad… so he could get drunk quicker and cheaper later.”
– Shaenaniganss
19.“I decided to try microdosing mushrooms for the first time that day. I do not know why I chose that day. I tried and failed. I took too much. In a fugue state, after the art gallery, I took my date to the cheapest coffee shop in the area and proceeded to defend Stalin. I don’t know why. I actually know very little about Stalin. I’m aware that he was a monster. But to me that day he was an alright guy. I felt like I was watching a movie of myself.”
