Who hasn’t been subjected to small talk and awkward introductions? These brave women share their hilarious dating blunders…
CHOKE ON THIS
I’d been out of the dating scene for four years when I said yes to an invitation from a guy I really liked. During the date I sneezed while eating the spaghetti, and a saucy noodle shot half way out of my nose while the other half remained in my throat. It made me gag loudly and the whole restaurant was staring at us. My date laughed uncontrollably and we’re still together!
KILOJOULE COUNTER
I went on a first date with a personal trainer last year and all he spoke about during the first 15 minutes of our date was exactly how many kilojoules and grams of fat there was in everything on the menu. When our food arrived, he started telling me how many squats and push-ups I’d need to do to burn off every mouthful. Not a turn-on.
