27 People Explain Why They Walked Out In The Middle Of A Date

11. She tortured a waitress.

We went to grab some food before a film at a fish taco place in-between us. I ordered some tacos and a beer, she ordered some tacos, a water, a side of rice, and side of salsa.

So the meal comes and she just stared at it wide-eyed. The salsa was ON TOP of the rice. She looked at the waitress and really harshly said she ordered a side of rice and side of salsa. Fair enough, I guess, outside of the harsh bit, but the waitress took it back politely enough.

A few minutes later the waitress brings out the rice with a side of salsa and, again, she looked at the waitress and really harshly said she ordered a side of rice and a side of salsa. She noted that the kitchen had only just scooped the salsa off of the top of the rice, so she had it sent back.

Finally another rice and side of salsa come out from the kitchen. The waitress puts it down on the table very, very politely (I have no idea how she even managed that at this point), and asked the woman I was with if this was OK. The woman looked at it and said “This is perfect! Thank you!” and then immediately, and in front of the waitress, dumped the side of salsa on top of the rice.

I stood up and left.

TL;DR: Don’t go on a date with a nutter.

12. “Hannah? You mean like a cat?”

I had a girl out for lunch at Panera (first date, keeping things light) and we were trying to have a conversation. Emphasis on “trying.” She was drop-dead gorgeous but, Holy Helix! She was, and still is, the dumbest motherfucker I have ever met in my life. I couldn’t hardly talk to her about anything without her going “Huh?” and turning her head to the side. I snapped when I told her my mom’s name was Hannah and she responded, “Hannah? You mean like a cat?”
Understand, she had been saying shit like that for a solid hour. I’m not one to give up on anybody; I’ve gone on second dates with girls I had a rough first date with. She just kept roadblocking any attempt I had at conversation with her by saying dumb shit.

13. She bought meth from her ex-boyfriend during the date.

So I pick up a girl I work with (this past Saturday actually). When I get there I notice she is not acting like she normally did at work. She was super energetic (not a bad thing), her conversations were all over the place, she at one point was even talking to herself in the car, let out some pretty nasty farts, and crying over some problem she wouldn’t tell me about. We were supposed to be heading to a party at a friend’s apartment but she needed to go pick up something first. I was fine with this…until she told me what it was. When I finally convinced her to tell me what we were going to get she told me some crystal…crystal meth…and that we were picking it up from her ex-boyfriend who doesn’t want to meet me so I will have to park somewhere and let her walk to meet him. I played off how furious I was until I took her back to her house to brush her teeth because she had not done this yet, or put on make-up, or fixed her hair. As soon as we arrived at her house I told her I needed to leave, got the fuck out of there, and had a great night at that party. Haven’t spoken to her at work since.

14. He played “World of Warcraft” during the entire date.

Long story short: I was 22 and he was 28 and he asked me to meet him at “his” house as a halfway point to the restaurant. Turned out to be his parents. He wasn’t ready for the date because he was finishing up “work” on his laptop. After waiting 30 mins, found out he was playing WoW. Said he would finish up soon, waited another 20 mins and threatened to leave. He tried getting intimate, I asked for the bathroom to “freshen up.” Left and he called me 4 times within 5 mins asking where I went.
