I was on date #3 with a guy and he basically wanted me to commit to being his girlfriend. When I said no, he started crying and said "in that case I need to walk away from you now" and stropped off. It was so cringe but I was also laughing inside because it was just so ridiculous
Then 5 mins later he walked back... luckily my taxi was on the way

Living for this thread! Why do we put ourselves through this 
This thread is getting me through lockdown 
Thought it was about time that I added mine:
Long fingernails
Crap shoes
Bootleg jeans that are all ripped at the bottom from trailing on the ground
Smokers
I've had a few icky dates.
Went on a walk with a guy, then we decided to go a drive and get an ice cream. He ended up not having a clue which side of the road he was supposed to be on and started driving down the wrong side of the road. Needless to say there wasn't a second date.
Went for food with one guy, he was the one who suggested going for food but it became apparent that he hated eating in front of people, and sat and covered his mouth during the whole meal. Awkward.
Another date I went on, we went to the cinema. The guy proceeded to put his hand on my knee, and I just instantly felt the ick. Was such a good film as well, so just pretended I was fully engrossed in it every time he tried to chat

I went on another date recently (apparently I lied when I said I gave up), and I don't think I've ever had so many icks in a row:
Just to clarify, this was a 30 year old man, not a 14 year old as he will appear...
1. Referred to his daughter as "the babe", it made my face flinch every time he said it. He was like "oh the first time I held the babe..." I was like, why not just say baby, or daughter or her name?!
2. Blamed all of his ex girlfriends for the break ups, played the victim in every situation.
3. Sat in silence and then out of nowhere tried to kiss me. I hid my face and told him not to. He then tried again and I told him he was making me uncomfortable, and he said it was my fault and then sulked and wouldn't talk to me.
4. Bragged about dating foreign girls but when I mentioned about going on a date he called me a slut. First time I thought it was a joke, but this happened every time I mentioned any date from the past.
5. Referred to boobs as "it" and said he wasn't a "titty man" - I'm pretty sure at that stage I slightly threw up in my mouth.
Now I am definitely done with tinder dates!

What's funny is that after all of this he asked for another date, and when I messaged him saying I wasn't interested, he blocked me on everythingGod, what an awful gob of a bloke
You must have been devastated, he sounded like a total catchWhat's funny is that after all of this he asked for another date, and when I messaged him saying I wasn't interested, he blocked me on everything
This thread is hilarious. I have actually laughed out loud at a lot of them
Went on a couple of dates with a guy who just agreed with everything I said. Constantly complimented me and sent me loving texts, he just didn't have an opinion, I even got a bit annoyed and said to him to just say what he thought on things and he still tried to agree with me somehow. Also found out he harassed his ex girlfriend, turned up in a club she was in whilst dating me! When I finished it, he did the whole 'this always happens to me, I'll never find anyone, I'm always too nice' whinge then a couple weeks later turned up in a club I was in in another town and was straight over to me. Recently found out he's been harassing my friend to see him and sending her the love face emojis, she never once replied and he's now blocked.
My biggest ick was the guy I dated after him, I was already a bit put off as he was tiny, no offense to him but it made me feel huge standing next to him even though I was slightly smaller. He also was obsessed with how he looked. I lived close to him so at night he would walk me to mine but he had to get himself ready first incase anyone saw him, so would do his hair, check his outfit. It would be late and dark. Major turnoff. Also had this pose he did as soon as he see a camera like a proper pose! The worst was when I slept with him he rolled his eyes back so I could just see the whites of his eyes, for the whole time!!! Freaks me out thinking about it,I'm sure he fancied himself though. Makes me cringe thinking about it

Soo.. I had one date with a lad and he said he was in love with me
WTF?! That’s terrifying!
I had a one night stand with a lad and he told me he loved me and wanted to marry meSoo.. I had one date with a lad and he said he was in love with me
Ohh gosh where to begin!
Small hands
When they misjudge the dress code and are way too dressy or massively underdressed
Car selfies
When they use the 'cute' snapchat filters like with animals ears or cartoon glasses
Speaking of glasses, when they wear them for 'fashion' and not because they need them
When they put things on their tinder like 'if you match but don't make any conversation then don't bother ...' ok then I won't
When they have a very severe haircut and suddenly you notice how big their ears are in comparison to their tiny head (I speak from experience)
If they drive massive cars like a people carrier or something even thought it is just for them
Being on their phone when driving
Turning up for an 'overnight date' with no toothbrush or clean clothes
I hate that all of these are from my tragic dating history
Edit: I thought of some more
I was speaking to guy on Tinder and we arranged to meet and leading up to it all he kept on messaging me was 'I'm so nervous, how will you know who I am, what if you don't turn up, what if we don't like each other, I'm bricking it ...' gave me the ick before I even met him!
Black shirt, light blue jeans (bootleg cut) and long point brown shoes.

Omg I almost choked on my Dairy Milk when I read this
I agree with everyone - this thread has got me through the past month or so, it's hilarious! It's kind of making me want to online date again so I can gather more stories to tell you all
I’ve only ever got the proper ick once, and it was over something ridiculous
matched with someone on tinder, asked me out after a day and I thought why not, date was in 5 days time. Messaged for two days and on the third morning he messaged saying “morning mischief” and it make me feel ILL! Don’t call me mischief I’m not 5 year old girl

Clothes wise, super tight trousers that stop above the ankle, no socks, loafers or super white trainers
Not seen a man irl in bootcut jeans and pointy shoes... much like the micro pen, i hope never to.
Maybe there should be a review section under tinder bios, much like amazon reviews.
I get the ick over being too shy, and being an aggressive fool when you refuse to kiss them (solely instigated by a sudden and violent lunge at your face) i mean can't these dudes read any body language?
