Anyone who\u2019s gone out with at least a few people has undoubtedly had a bad first date. But few first dates compare to these favorite bad first date stories on TikTok. Here are 5 bad date TikTok stories that\u2019ll make your worst day seem like no big deal (unless you\u2019re Elyse Myers).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Elyse Myers\u2019 hilarious and somewhat scary first date story is perhaps the most viral on TikTok. Few bad first dates compare with hers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Having met a guy on a dating app, Elyse Myers<\/a> drives 45 minutes to his house. Everything seems normal so far \u2014 but nothing from this point on could be considered normal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Elyse becomes an impromptu chauffeur to the restaurant (because her date doesn\u2019t have his keys). Their destination? Taco Bell, where Mr. Forgetful orders 100 hard shell tacos \u2014 yes, you read that right, a full one hundred tacos<\/em> \u2014 and leaves Elyse footing the bill because, you guessed it \u2026 he forgot his wallet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Back at the Temporary Taco Temple (his house), the guy dramatically spills out the tacos on a table and bellows, \u201cLet\u2019s feast!\u201d Cue the cringe-worthy silence, punctuated by crunching tacos. Enter his dad, munching a taco while standing between them. When Dad invites Elyse to his study, she thanks them for the experience. Elyse escaped with more Taco Bell tacos than she\u2019d care to ever eat \u2014 and her life, too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The date: Ride together to the pizzeria, order pizza to share, sit at the booth, and enjoy a good meal. All things are going well for Kennedy<\/a>, but that\u2019s about to stop. Like, the date is literally<\/em> about to stop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Her date (Mr. Driver) says he ate too much after finishing his slices, and his stomach isn\u2019t feeling so great. Rather than excusing himself to the men\u2019s room, though, he just lies down for a nap right there in the booth. Kennedy signs off TikTok while wondering what to do, and there he is, just snoozing away. He was her ride home. So what is she to do?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Kennedy, call a cab or an Uber. Mr. Driver, dude, props for being able to sleep in a fully lit pizza place. Take a nap first next time, though.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Raych Fayce\u2019s<\/a> bad first date story technically qualifies, since her date technically was a date. It may have been the shortest first date in history \u2014 or at least TikTok history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Raych showed up to her date at a wing bar, late \u2014 \u201creally f*ing late,\u201d in the words of her counterpart. Admittedly, she was quite late because, in her words: 1) she didn\u2019t want to go in the first place; 2) had to do her makeup; and 3) has ADHD. But as it \u201creally f*ing late?\u201d Who even says \u201cf*ing\u201d before their date even arrives? Someone who knows what they want and is quick to judge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As she walks in, her date tells her that the lot where each of them parked had a tow sign posted. They should probably move their cars and go out to relocate. She finds a spot on the street, and he a spot in the garage. That\u2019s when the date is \u2026 put into park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n His next move is to text that he\u2019s not feeling it. They\u2019d seen each other for \u201c45 seconds\u201d \u2014 less time than she needed to put on foundation \u2014 and he already knew things wouldn\u2019t progress from his end. That\u2019s definitely someone who knows what they want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Was this a veteran move so he could get out early on? Was it the worst first date ever? Did he even pay for that garage spot? Well, she may not have paid for his dinner, but it did cost her some coin for parking. In the end, she may have dodged a proverbial bullet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n TouchMyBurrito<\/a> has a story that challenged the TikTok comment section with the appropriateness of social norms. Cheapskate scoundrel, or gentleman who makes wise investments? <\/p>\n\n\n\n The primary topic of conversation throughout dinner was her ex, and Mr. Burrito decided he wasn\u2019t going to be a rebound relationship. He said they should split the bill, to which she replied she didn\u2019t have any money on her. He was stuck paying the full (expensive) bill of $160 CAD. When she asked about post-dinner drinks, he said sure, so long as they got her wallet first. <\/p>\n\n\n\n He knew there wouldn\u2019t be a second date, so why honor the gentleman\u2019s role for the first? Maybe he should\u2019ve suggested a dive bar where drinks were cheap instead \u2014 or something like Taco Bell, where dinner is cheap in the first place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jake Banfield\u2019s<\/a> story seems to have the class (and safeness) that Elyse\u2019s lacked. A Tex-Mex restaurant where chemistry is in the air, and margaritas are $10. Little did Jake realize he was on a date with a beautiful fish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n They each started off with a margarita, and then a second one. He stopped at two. She proceeded onto a third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth and tenth, only stopping when she couldn\u2019t count on her fingers anymore. <\/p>\n\n\n\n One, two, skip a few, ninety-nine, one hundred dollars. Jake was a gentleman, and paid for the $100 of margaritas, plus his drinks and their food. He\u2019s fully confident that she told the truth when they parted, and she said she had \u201cthe best time.\u201d We bet she did!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Before you go on a first date, make sure you know who it\u2019ll be sitting across from you at the table. Spokeo<\/a> can help you verify the identity of potential dates, so you don\u2019t end up with a bad date TikTok story.
