    I went on a date to the movies, but I misread the showtimes. We were there early, so we grabbed snacks and settled in… for the ‘wrong movie’. Turns out, we were watching a children’s animated film instead of the romantic comedy we planned🤣. We spent the whole time trying to look serious while surrounded by kids, and by the end, we were both laughing too hard to care. At least we got to enjoy the popcorn!😎😋

    My funniest date story has to be the day I got engaged. My now husband had arranged a lovely meal at a local Italian restaurant (telling them his plans to propose) but when we arrived they told him the chef had gone home early and there was no food! 
    He seemed stressed so (completely unknowing of his plans) I just laughed it off and said let’s go to McDonald’s next door! He didn’t seem to want to, but I insisted as I quite like McDonalds and I wasn’t bothered whether our date was a fancy one or not - I had a chicken legend and a frappe so I was happy! Little did I know he had an engagement ring in his pocket and his plans had been ruined! 
     

    He didn’t actually propose in the McDonald’s - we finished our meal and went to another local restaurant for drinks where he popped the question! But it ended up being nothing like he had planned 😂 Our engagement meal will always have been a Maccies, but that was nearly 7 years ago now, we are happily married and I wouldn’t change it for the world! We then ended up hiring out a McDonalds at breakfast as our wedding breakfast because it played such a crucial role in our engagement 😂 I do highly recommend a sausage McMuffin with a hangover! 😂

    Met a guy for drinks and had a really great date got on really well and had loads to talk about but as we were saying goodbye I got really flustered and while he went in for a hug I went in with a strong handshake……. I think you can guess what my hand hit. I was so embarrassed I mumbled an apology and ran to my car!

    I have to also add my second date with my husband, as it’s funny to look back on - he was a sweet guy and drove a good couple hundred miles to meet me in Skegness because I was already there and I joked to come and see me (is that sweet or weird 😂)

    After we spent some time on the beach and fair, he offered to drive me home instead of me getting the coach back, so I agreed and we set off. Only he got lost on the back country roads, and I really needed a wee. After a while of trying to find somewhere, I ended up having to go in the bushes, and accidentally stung myself on stinging nettles! He was really concerned about why I screamed, and I was mortified about the whole thing but looking back now it’s funny I guess! 😂

    I went on a date with my partner a couple of years ago and he didnt have a car at the time he decided to ask him mate to take us but instead of his mate going home his friend and his sister had a table behind us and he even paid for their meal as well as ours so didn’t really feel like a date more like a double date😂😩

    My date turned up with a massive Valentines card that you had to carry under your arm. I mean it was massive. I look back now and think what a funny fantastic thing to do. But at the time I was so embarrassed. I just couldn’t believe it!

    An Unforgettable Spicy Night.

    In my youth I once thought it would be a great idea to go on a first date to a posh curry house by the sea. However things didn't go entirely to plan. I made a school boy error by ordering something I'd never eaten before and unfortunately found myself waaayyyy outta my comfort zone. Every time I tried to swallow, I had the most violent hiccup. I mean it was funny for the first couple of minutes, well, for my date, but 20 minutes later, that novelty had definitely worn off. Unlike the searing pain in my throat and, more importantly, my soul.... worst of all, that 'volcano hot curry' was only a Lamb Rogan Josh!..... Shame and pain in equal measure.

    I did manage a second date, but I have a sneaking suspicion it was only to see if I could embarrass myself even more!

    Me and my date went to Brighton music hall and sat outside with a couple pints. He thought it would be a good idea to make a joke by banging his fist under the table and throwing his head forwards to look like he’d just smacked his head on the table…why? Anyway the PLASTIC table flipped up, smacked him in the face, and tipped the pints all over me. I still stayed for a second pint. Good times.

    first (and only) date with a girl, were in a park after a light meal, sitting on the grass and chatting.

    I feel something poke my ass. I look around, expecting a dog (felt like a nose), saw noting and went back to talking.

    Poked again. Look around. Nothing. Poked AGAIN as I’m looking and seeing nothing, now I’m freaking out.

    I stand up, and beneath where I was sitting, a tiny lil mole pops his nose out of the ground, and goes on exploring in the grass.

    We had a good laugh, and watched him wander, dig, and such. The mole occupied us for at least 30 min before he burrowed under again for good.
