13 Tweets About Awkward Dates Where Nothing Went as Planned

It is almost impossible to understand a lot of things about a person in a short period of time. Even the people we’re closest to in our lives tend to surprise us after living with them for many years, let alone complete strangers. This is why first dates often disappoint us or turn out to be flat-out nightmares.
We at Bright Side were blown away by how ironically Internet users talked about their failed dates. This makes their stories especially charming and removes all the negative context. How do you think you would feel if you were in their place?

So no one is going to say the girl in #8 was expecting a gourmet dinner? My husband does like to cook, but after almost 7 years together he has not cooked potatoes long enough. If that’s her only bad thing to say, then that’s crazy! Yeah.. marriage is only about the meals?? I mean.. you eat all different types of food yourself. Why get mad that he made mac and cheese as a side?
