Things you should never say on a date.

[Cin]

I was on a first date with this woman and we went out for dinner, she asked me odd questions that only became clear in retrospect. After dinner I asked her if she would like coffee.

She answers “So what do you think about cleaning yourself out? How about a coffee enema? I have equipment at my apartment.”

I’m like no, thank you, I just meant do you want a cup of coffee. To drink.

I'm sure there is nothing wrong with coffee enemas if you are into them, but I don't think you should just go there on the first date. And it is a non sequitur to ask someone if they want to come back to your apartment for a coffee enema even if they ask if you would like a cup of coffee.

So what you are trying to say is that offering to give someone a coffee enema is a shitty way to end a date?

Yes, you could say that. Not to mention she ended up constipated in her efforts.

You keep disturbing those around me by making me laugh. This time it was just the cats. But still. Think before you cause folks to guffaw.

About five years ago, my mom fixed me up. That should have been the red flag right there. Anyway, this butch and I were to go on a date at Christmas time when I visited my mom and dad in Florida. So she starts calling in October. And calling and calling. When she said, "Now I have something to look forward to," that was it. I told her honestly that it was too many calls. And I was dating anyway. When I got home that Christmas, she had sent a centerpiece to my parents. Flowers and piney stuff. She called one more time, and I gently said no.

But implying that a date with a stranger gives you a reason to go on . . . uh no. Not a good idea.

I met her ex, a neighbor of my mother's. And she seems cool. But perhaps she is an ex for a reason.

LOL.

Although I still believe a first date is too soon to discuss the possibility of putting things up someone's anus, unless of course you met them on an enema play site, it wasn't so much the invitation that was disturbing as the timing. It appeared like she actually thought it was an acceptable, even a logical jumping off point. That it was the epitome of etiquette to invite someone for a coffee enema when they ask you if you would like a cup of coffee. I think if she would have just asked how I felt about recreational enemas during some lull in the conversation I would not have been quite so unsettled. There still wouldn't have been a second date in our future because if enemas are so important to you that you must bring them up on a first date I will be nothing but a huge disappointment to you. Best to end it now.

How have I not seen this thread before?? It's hysterical!

A favourite first date one liner said to me...

'Could you not find a jacket to match your dress then?'

Cheeky git, I looked way hot.

And this...

Idk if I mentioned..

I had gone to get a drink for my "date" and I ...down a bleacher and what felt like a mile to concessions and waited in line....

A little later the popcorn in the stadium (twas a roller derby bout) was smelling super good... I turned to my "date" and told her I wanted popcorn and she said..well go on get you some!

Smh

Just out of curiosity, how do you talk about your experiences, travels, journeys and adventures you've had without mentioning your exes???? Do I just pretend I did them all on my own or... ?

I usually say something like "I went basket weaving in Burma" without adding "...and my ex was there". Not that I've had all that many ex's, or that there's much story to tell, but especially on early dates, I tend to leave that off unless asked. Past relationships seem to come up as a new interest is getting "serious", in my experience (such as it is).
