About a year ago I started talking online with a lady from the West Coast who had a great picture on the web site and a great profile. We spent some time online and finally decided to meet. I drove to her town got a hotel room that had a view of the Temple and our first date was to the Temple. The only problem was that she looked nothing like the picture and was 10 years older than she had stated online. I had a wonderful time with her but could not convince myself that this would be a good relationship having started out with two lies.

I get very few hits on my profiles and so I can see why someone pushed by desparation might do somehting like that but it is way too difficult to keep covering up one lie after another.

Wow gotta say at everyone's expense this has been an entertaining thread. I haven't dated for 33 years other than my wife. Scary to think what it might be like if I were to become a widower.

Hummm..lets see if I can dig one up that will amuse Ben even more....
About 13 years ago after being single again for a bit met a nice girl at a rodeo. Now at the time I was a Saddle/bareback rider. We decided to meet at a rodeo that we were both going to be participating in. Well..we decided to have our date the day after the first day. Make a day out of it and see some of the town. Well..didnt work out that way. After my ride (as short as it was) sorta got injured. Couple of cracked/broken ribs. So hugs were a big No No. Also twisted my knee and hip. So no strolling through the shops. Aslo due to the pain meds was not really playing with afull deck. We decided. Ok. Picnic. Long story short. We had our picnic in a small west Texas town on this hill. Nice warm day. Fine food. Time for meds. I passed out cold for about 2 hours on this poor girl. Can you say really good first impression? She felt so bad for me that she said lets try again. I felt so embarassed that we never did.
Ok Ben...Laugh it up big guy! lol

Guy had both his arms around me while he told me that some girls from his past recently reappeared in his life, and he doesn't know what he wants anymore, including myself.

This was three weeks ago.

We're just friends now.

I knew a girl who was on her mission...her bf was waiting for her. It was clearly established that he was waiting, not that he could date others. He did go out with a couple of girls, and even kissed them (at least one of them). He told my friend that he was "only thinking of her" when he did it, and that he was now even more sure that she's the only one for him.

She's now married. To someone else.

Keep them coming. I didn't know there were so many shallow, stupid, self-centered people out there.

Um..this didnt happen to me but a good friend. After a year and a half of being divorced. He allowed one of the new neighbors to set him up with a "really nice girl my wife knows at work".
Well. since he hasnt dated in years he though. ok..no big deal. dinner and some company for once. He went to the restruant and was very early. About 15 minutes before she was to arrive he gets a call. leaves the table and walks to the rear area of the resturant where there is an outside patio. as he is nearing his table..the Mater d (no laughing at the spelling..thse are his words) is leading his date..His EX WIFE he told her..this is an ackward moment. They decided to let by gones be bygones and had dinner together. After a year and a half of being away from each other they learned a few things. Neither had dated. They both actually missed each other. About 6 months later. They remarried and have been together happily ever since.
Moral to story...Make sure you know the LAST name of the person you are being set up on a blind date with!!!! lol

Default Oooooooops !!

Have been dating and hangin with this drop-dead beautiful girl for a short while now. We've kept it on the up and up the whole time, but have become more and more impassioned with each other lately. Couple of nights ago I was going to "go for it" (not what you may think). We got very cozy and affectionate, and started a little kissy-kissy. We locked into a long, sweet, deep kiss. Suddenly and unbelievably, I "broke wind", loudly!!! She broke away, left the room. I thought my life just ended ! What do you do in a situation like that? Say you're sorry, laugh, cry, run to the bathroom, run home and put a gun to your head???? Considered them all. If I have to cork myself this will never happen again. The result of this assininity I will keep to myself ----for now. Should have kept this moronic story to myself I think.
