Lol, I had a really "good" bad first date too.
My first date was the homecoming dance my junior year. As the date of the dance approaches, I kept wondering if I would get asked to go. Well, 2 weeks before, nothing. 1 week before, nothing. 3 days before, nothing. 2 days before, nothing but, I had admitted defeat and had already accepted the fact that I wasn't going to the dance. 1 day encounting and what happens...yep, I got asked out. That was problem #1, which played into a lot of the other problems. He asked me the night before the dance and I didn't have a dress to wear. The only time I had to shop for a dress was first thing in the morning before the dance. My mom and I spent an hour at Dillards and found a dress that would work. (it was hard because none of the dresses were modest, and I am). Next problem was my hair, I had to style it myself (not too big of a problem). Then I was ready after walking around in a panic that morning. Well, he came to pick me up and I looked gorgeous! Well, I had a flower for him and he had NOTHING for me. So, on our way out, he stopped at a grocery store to have one made for me. (hello, formal dance!!!
) After we got that out of the way, it was embarassing walking through a grocery store in a formal dress, he took me out to dinner. Well, it wasn't just any dinner, it was KFC!!! Holy cow! What in the world! (Hello, formal dance, and I hate their mashed potatoes) After that he took me to a movie (I wish this date would end faster!!!) Finally, I got to the dance and I was nice and I stood by my man and I didn't ditch him. Luckily, we were both uncomfortable dancing so after a few songs we went and talked to our friends. I was happy that he didn't try to kiss me. We did remain friends through out high school and I think he had a crush on me for a LONG time. I laugh about it now. (ha ha ha, kfc for a formal dance....lol)
