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

23. She couldn’t put her phone down.

I went on a date with a friend of a friend. We went out to the beach, talked for quite a while, got some drinks, and were eating dinner. It seemed to be a real good time but she was always on her bloody mobile. I had made a couple funny comments based on high scores and other phone-related themes but she was either clueless, indifferent, or having a bad time. Midway through dinner, and in the middle of her text conversation with her “bestie,” I dropped a $20 on the table and told her to enjoy her texting.

My friend hit me up a couple days later and asked why I was a jerk to her. After I explained about the phone bit my friend laughed and said that was why her last boyfriend dumped her.

tl;dr walked out on a chick since she couldn’t put her phone down.

24. She used her friend’s pictures on her dating profile.

I walked out on a date when I realized that the girl I had contacted on OkCupid was not at all the girl who showed up. The girl who arrived was hugely, heavily morbidly obese and didn’t look anything like the photos on her profile. This wasn’t a matter of flattering angles or old pictures, it was a completely different girl. (Turns out, it was her friend.)

I noped out of there. It wasn’t the fact that she was overweight that caused me to leave (although, I’m not attracted to that. I did go on a date with a heavy girl that I had met on OkCupid because she was funny in messages and was honest, it just didn’t click at the date), it was the fact that she had so strongly lied on her profile and expected that to be a good way to start an honest relationship that caused me to bail. I told her the truth and left.

25. She served pizza rolls while wearing pajamas and playing around on Facebook.

We meet online. Chat for a day or two and decide to go out one night. I get dressed up, and drive out for what I think is to pick her up. I show up at her apartment and she looks like she just rolled out of bed. Still in pajamas too. I was gonna take her out to a nice restaurant but she told me she had pizza rolls in the oven. I spent the entire date on the couch petting her dog and watching Family Guy while she played around on Facebook. I pulled a “Aw, damn it’s late I got to get going. Got that work tomorrow and all that stuff..”

I got a text two days later from her saying it was fun and wanting to know if I wanted to come back next weekend. I felt bad but I just couldn’t go back again.
