Unless you are on a sure thing a first date should not involve a commitment of over 30 minutes.
I am often described as svelte. Smooth as a cloggers rasp me.Originally Posted by Nicethaiza
(Try translating that into Thai)
I'd just be honest and say, "I'm not feeling it."
Pretty sure it was my final blind date (in Korea).
We met online somehow. She was quite enigmatic about sharing her photo.
She sent a tiny little pic that I could barely make out.
I should've backed out then and there but she was very adamant about meeting
and asked multiple times if I lived alone.
The public spot was a subway station near to where I lived, so I thought, 'fugg it,'
let's see what she's about.
She arrives and is just plain hideous. I couldn't discount her body, though. She was short, tight, decent tits, slim and was basically a spinner. Probably around 22/23.
But that face! She was caked with acne and wore some honkin' bifocals with a short, tomboy cropped haircut.
fuggetaboutit.
I detoured us into a MdDs and offered to buy her lunch. While she attacked her burger set without ceremony only stopping to spit out, "are we going to your apartment after this?' I got on the phone and explained what was going on to a merkin friend whom I knew would fuck a gorilla if he could find a way to hold it down.
He readily agreed to 'take the poor little nympho in,' and I explained to her that I was (afterall) unavailable and that my friend would love to spend the afternoon with her. I let them chat on my phone a little and twenty minutes later, saw her to his door.
They pretty much did it all, including anal - but as time went by she became unable for him to manage. "Just too nympho," he said - which said a lot because he was legendary due to his liberal sexual proclivities.
At one point he was screwing the director, two teachers and several students [all nasty] at our humble, little language school. That, (of course) all came crashing down eventually when the director (who was married) let herself into his apartment one drunken night, after he hadn't answered her calls, and found him in the midst of an orgy with 3 paid hookers. She went on to discover ALL of his other antics. It was quite the witch hunt. She resigned, two teachers were fired and he was transferred to HQ. ha! Just never know...

Fuck, so Neverna is a poof with a penchant for fat, balding, chocolate-tubers?
Nevernew that.
Har,har.
Good one Seekingass ylum!
Howzabout a dinner-date at your cottage in Pebblecombe Regis?
Har har.
But to the point, would you be a gent and politely finish the meal and then say your good-byes? Or would you be an oik like the jock in the video?
I'm pretty sure I have met your avatar Nev. Looks alarmingly like my first ex. Shudder
^ It's a bloke, your ex?...Heh...Silly coont...
Just make some dumb excuse and leave. Sometimes the Thai way is the best way. Face matters to everybody. Not just Thais.Originally Posted by Neverna
Yeah and so consider the other person's face. You lose none by being politely tolerant for the half hour or so, they lose some by being dishonourably dumped.
You missed the important words there in Nev's quote; "gent", and "oik".
And that's what it comes down to; Do you have manners and consideration for another's feelings or not. The jock cares only for himself and his steak.

Assuming the date was with a woman, I would enjoy the rest of the meal. I am sure there would be some mutual topic for conversation and she would improve in proportion to the amount of wine consumed.
I can't think of a time when I thought a woman repulsive enough to leave the table.
How about the reverse?...Originally Posted by Troy
I did a runner from two dates a couple months back
The women who turned up looking nothing or weighing nothing like their profile pics.
A TD member even put me on ignore after reading it
Thanks for that Nev. It's entirely possible that some feeble halfwit might jump to the wrong conclusion.Originally Posted by Neverna
*cough* the correct description is backing and filling...Originally Posted by CaptainNemo
Re: the OP - what accent was that??? I could hardly understand it. It's not the BBC or Harry Potter type of UK English. I could somehow understand the bald guy, but the fat one, my eyebrows were meeting as I struggled to listen to him.
But anyhoo, in reply to the original question re: bad dates, I would stick it out. Then make excuses (or tell the truth that it's not gonna work), after the date. To do a runner would be rude - no manners at all.
Caveat: if the date was in a cinema & he was groping me, then to heck with manners - I would leave. But then, in the first place, I wouldn't go to a cinema on a first date.
I agree with the others - for a first date, coffee/tea in a public place (e.g. mall) would be good.
