Men Were Asked About Their Horrible First Dates And What The Last Straw Was That Made Them Walk Out
Disrespectful attitudes, catfishes, and freeloaders—they're all here.
Dating isn’t easy, whether you’re trying to find the right person to be with in the long run or you’re just looking for a little fun. The dating pool is sometimes small, and crossing paths with new people gets harder after each failed date.
For some, dating is fun; they’re good at it and look forward to it. But there are those who trudge through online matches and blind dates, hoping that it could be their last first date.
There are many things to consider when dating, but the most important part is who you are going out with. The online world circulates many horrible dating stories that might even deter some from trying to date.
However, some dates survive to become funny or cringe-worthy posts under a subreddit. In a r/AskMen post, a Redditor directed their question to men who walked out on their dates and asked what the final straw was that pushed them to do so.
Many shared their experiences, both long and short. Most bonded over similar moments or left comments to comfort each other, thinking they would have walked out too if they were in the same situation.

Redditors commended the bartender as well

We wonder how many times the bartender caught the girl doing the same thing to other guys

Glad OP got out of there before things got serious. The boyfriend’s buddy raised a red flag high

They must have thought a date means having a two-for-one deal

The date’s friend can ogle at them all she wants if she’s worried about her date’s safety, as long as she’s at another table and you’re definitely not picking up the tab

Someone replied in a way that might teach them a lesson not to do it again

Unintentionally, OP followed that advice

Definitely an early sign to get out of there before she blows up on the waitress too

At least you didn’t have to stick around to find out

The bluntness of this stings; what hurts more is that you found out after half an hour

Another piece of advice for bad dates so they’ll learn their lesson

OP wasn’t as confident, but at least he technically got out of that situation

Is it even a date to begin with if it’s like that?

The same thing happened with another Redditor, which ended very differently

Beware, catfishes everywhere

The last one is the story that takes the cake

OP was excited about the date, and the girl's personality seemed refreshing

OP thought there must have been a reason why she was with two guys

But then the girl revealed her plans

And things got really weird

OP got out of there before he could be involved in all that ridiculousness

Dates can be fun and interesting, but it always depends on the person you’re with. In this day and age, people seem to treat it more as a pastime, but you never know—you might meet the right person when you’re not looking.
This post was originally dedicated to horrible date moments, but if it didn’t deter you from dating, then you can try again. And again.
Do you have your own ‘I’m out of here’ moment? We’d love to hear it in the comments.
