The worst date that I have been on was with a guy that I had met online. We met at a coffee shop and talked over some tea and snacks. First, he looked nothing like his picture. He was wearing some sports team shirt and definitely was shorter and rounder than his picture. He didn’t look like he had tried to put himself together to impress me. Second, he talked fairly slowly and in a monotone voice. I couldn’t imagine hearing him speak to me for the next 20 minutes, never mind 20 years. But the absolute deal breaker came when he initiated the conversation about our past relationships. He told me that he had a long term girl friend who didn’t want to marry him. I asked him why and he became brutally honest. He said that he was bipolar and obsessive compulsive and that she didn’t want to have kids with him due to his genetics. He gave me an example of some of his troubles, mentioning that he can’t sleep if he knows that a hanger in the closet isn’t facing the right direction. Yeah, that wasn’t going to work out for me either. I ended our date and that was the end of internet dating for me.
