    I took a guy to wetherspoons one in the noughties for a burger and a pint because I fancied him. I’d been seeing more than usual and unbeknownst to me at that time, I had a pretty bad yeast infection.  I felt some discomfort in that area and a tiny bit of pee came out. It litterally stank of fish and wetherspoons reeked, being the classy gal that I am, I told him what was wrong and he was fine with it. Good old south wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

    My worst first date. It actually started fantastically. We were hitting it off, sharing stories about toxic coworkers. So I absolutely roasted former boss. Like tore into him real good. Mid-laugh, I got hit with, “Wait, where did you work?”

    Well, turns out I’d just spent 10 minutes trashing my date’s father. We tried to play it cool, but there was no coming back from that. We shook hands goodbye. :(

    Coming home from one of our first dates together, we got on the last train to get home, but it was the wrong one! We ended up spending the night trying to sleep in Sheffield station before giving up and walking around the city centre until the cafes opened for breakfast. We must have had a good time as we’re still together 18 years later.

    When i was 17 I drove my date to go tenpin bowling. All went well till I was taking him home. I flooded the car and had to call my dad to help. He came and took the lad home as it was a bit away...we didn't speak after that!!

    I went ice skating on a date and ended up in A&E after cracking the cartilage in my knee. Not the romantic night I was hoping for.

    I went on a date to a mystery film night, thinking we’d guessed the film. We got it totally wrong and we absolutely HATED the film. It’s still the worst I’ve ever seen. 🤣

    I once went on a date with a guy and found out he was a travel agent. Naturally, when he went to the toilet, I texted my flatmate:

    "He’s a travel agent! That’s great. That means free holidays. Ha ha."

    Except I didn’t send it to my flatmate. I sent it to him.

    When he got back, he looked at me, confused. "I don’t understand your message?"

    Neither did I, to be honest. I tried to laugh it off, but the damage was done.

    Strangely, I never saw him again. And I never got my free holiday.

    I once took her to an art gallery, not realising she was partially sighted.

    Luckily one of the events was actually based on Opera, and we ended up having a great time!

    I was getting ready to meet a guy that I had fancied for ages, when I accidentally dropped my curling tongs down the front of my dressing gown and burned my boob. Ouch!
    It was extremely painful but, being a brave soldier, I went out anyway and numbed the pain with alcohol. As the night went on, the agony became unbearable so I made my excuses and went to the ladies to check on my injuries. Terrifyingly, I realised that my nipple was fused to the lace on my bra. In a wild panic I did the worst thing possible - I ripped off my bra and, to my absolute horror, my nipple came off with it - Yikes!
    So there I was, crying in a toilet, with only one nipple and my 'hot date' waiting outside without a clue what was going on.
    My story has a happy ending though. My date very calmly took me to casualty in a taxi and held my hand as we waited to see the doctor. In the end, the date went so well that 30 years later we're still together and everything's in working order - in fact I've breastfed two of his babies since then! It just goes to show, no matter how unromantic the circumstances, you can't stop true love!
