Who is the wierdest person you ever dated ?

[KatMac]

I dated a guy years ago before I came out and broke up with him within a few months. Shortly after, the police showed up at my door. Somebody had stabbed him and claimed they did it on my behalf. I told the police I didn’t believe it. The guy had a history of self-inflicted injuries. Didn‘t stop the police from making me do a polygraph, which of course I passed. Years later, the guy contacted me and apologized. He said “he just wanted to provoke me into calling him.” Ugh.

I dated a woman who had a mother with borderline personality disorder. It would take a six book series to explain all that crazy. The mother is now dead and my ex and I are BFFs. But omg, the mother was absolute evil. I still shudder when I think about it.

Mine was the guy who had me read the bible to him everynight even though he can read, the biggest jerk I have dated was the one who threw me aginst a wall because I did not talk enough leaving a big scrap on my arm

Many, many years ago I went on a date w/some guy I met online who was a carnival worker. I did not know this fact until a conversation during our first date. It was one of those situations where you try to be as polite as possible and then ghost.

First let me preface that I thoroughly enjoy weird.

I dated a guy who seemed to have chosen to have taken a Women's studies course to argue incessantly with the professor. It was constant. Many of us wondered if he would snap one day, mainly because a horrific shooting - targeting women - had happened in the province months earlier. And we were hypersensitive.

The next year he appeared on my balcony to see me. I wasn't home. And when he asked to come in and exit by the stairs, my male roommate told him to leave whatever way he came.

Oh and he also regularly wore a kilt.

That wasn't the 1989 École Polytechnique massacre was it?

Disclaimer: I haven't dated anyone since high school, because I started dating my ex-husband when I was 17 and haven't dated since we separated.

In high school my friend was talking to some guy in a chat room, and she conned me into going with her to meet him IRL because it was the early days of the internet, in the 90s, and we were young idiots. So we meet and this guy who had said he was 23 turned out to be 32!!! We were 15 at the time! He becomes sort of infatuated with me and showers me with presents for a couple weeks, begging me to go out on another date with him. I finally agree to go on a real date and he takes me to his parent's house for dinner and introduces me as the girl he is going to marry!!! Lol, that was news to me, and remember this is our first date and I was only 15! But on the drive there he made me swear to tell his parents that I was 20 years old, guess he didn't want them to know he was a creeper dating little girls? I refused to see him after that and he didn't take it well and the whole incident was a good lesson for me about how scary the internet is, unfortunately it took a few of these lessons before I wised up, the fact that I survived my teen years is a miracle.

The only person I ever sorta-seriously dated wasn't weird, but she was a pretty mean person - not just to me actually which should've been a red flag. I've been out on a few other dates, but most likely they thought I was the weird one since they all ended pretty quickly. They would be on here telling stories about me most likely.

 

[Cogswel_Cogs]

My wife.
Love the crazy ones, everyday you're guessing

 

[lifesavacation]

I went out with this guy that wanted to lick my toes on the first date. When I said no, he wouldn’t give me a ride home. I had to walk to a pay phone and call my dad to come get me.

 

[NFLDERS]

A Sadie Hawkins choice granted me. But because my choice made up with his girlfriend before the dance/date he sent one of his buddies to apologize, and explain. It was a nice gesture, but so very uncomfortable for me because out of some sort of feeling of obligation, I did spend the evening with him... sigh.

 

[AustinTink]

I dated a guy who had a Burmese python that he let roam freely around his apartment. Our first date was also our last.

 

[jaybirdsmommy]

My high school boyfriend was a little off but nothing alarming when we were together, just spoiled, entitled, and very very religious.

Come to find out 30 some odd years later that he has been in jail for years, and will (hopefully) never get out on child pornography and other related charges.

 

[LuvOrlando]

I got engaged at 20 but was able to squeeze a whole lot of mouth dropping nuttiness into those early years.

Had a few stalkers but one I had dated (15 he was 17) who stands out called one day to tell me the color towel I had used that day. I took the time to walk outside my house and realized someone could stand at the bus-stop across the street and watch me in my room, just eww.

 

[Mortlives]

Okay, I'll play. I think the winner was a guy I met on an app. He bareface lied to me about things that were easily checkable (like suggesting that a local concert venue was being torn down and turned into a parking lot - spoiler: it wasn't). He also unmatched me at the table. Honestly, I was only upset that he beat me to it.

 

[rjb123]

I have two odd ones. The first one I met while I was in my last year of undergrad. He was a nice law student. On our second date he started talking about bringing me home to meet his mother. In literally a couple of weeks! EEK! My other "bad date" was a blind date of sorts and as soon as we sat down to dinner he confessed he was married "but thinking about leaving her". Um, no. I didn't even make it through drinks! Buh bye!

 

[georgina]

Weird? I'm sure anyone I ever dated would say me.

The weirdest guy I ever dated was in college, for 3 years. Although we didn't end up together, a small part of me will always be in love with him. I guess I like weird!

 

[lisaviolet]

That wasn't the 1989 École Polytechnique massacre was it?

Yes.

-----------

The guy I dated was harmless. Was simply explaining the times/environment, how a man being overly aggressive to feminist study was both unsettling and a worry at the time.

(Not that it would be any different today, but back then that level of horrendous violence - and vitriol - was not the norm.)

That subject came up once when I was in college. I was taking an English literature course, but taught by a very feminist professor. It had happened months previous to when it came up, but that class is actually where I learned the word "misogyny". I leaned a lot of new words/phrases in that class, including "mea culpa".

I had far different experiences than most of the other students in that class. It was mostly women and mostly liberal arts majors. I was an engineering major taking that class to meet a "breadth requirement". But I certainly understood the issue of women in engineering. I didn't necessarily sense any disdain for women who chose the field.

Carnies are such romantics. I'm sure he's stripping a tent somewhere thinking "That Kathryn lost out on so many free rides on the Tilt-a-wheel."

I had had a pretty intense relationship with a guy who ended up having some pretty big issues. We ended it mutually, and I did still care about him a lot and took some time to get past the experience. I felt ready to move on and part of that was actually trying to date.

So, I met "The Film Buff" on-line. We actually had some really great conversation. He asked me out for dinner. So first thing, he of course did not look like his picture. His hair was grown out and disheveled and he had crazy eyes. We sit down and I'm already on edge. We look at the menu and he starts talking about how he wonders if they have oysters and goes on about their aphrodisiac qualities. Were at a freaking Red Lobster in the middle of nowhere, there obviously aren't oysters.

So we we order and were talking. The conversation is extremely weird and he keeps on trying to hold my hand when I put it on the table. The topic of conversation included him asking me what kind of soap I use and when I told him I didn't want to discuss it he said, I bet you use Dove. Than he went on to tell me that if I wanted kids that he (at 50 years old) was ready and willing to have more.

During the course of all the weird conversation we get our meals and were about 3/4 of the way through when he says, do you remember the movie ET? He starts moving his hand into the way ET held up his finger to Elliot and I was like HELL NO. He said we could just tough fingers like in ET. That's when I was done being polite. I firmly told him that I did not want to hold hands or be touch by him. He up and slowly walked down the row of booths to the other side of the dining room and than walked back and walked out towards the door.

I motion the server and asked him if he would get my portion of the the check ASAP. He did, I paid. I was considering what I should do, like possibly asking the server to walk me to my car and my date came back in. He acted like nothing happened. He told me he thought the trees looked really pretty with the ice frozen on the branches and had gone outside to take photos.

I told him thanks for having dinner with me, that I really needed to go home to pack for my business trip and that I'd settled up my check. Before he could really say anything I got up and said have a good night and took off.

It's hard to judge the weirdest, but this guy deserves a blue ribbon. Not just the ET thing, but how can you even know what soap someone uses? He seems like the type that would say "I have my mother's skin!" and then you find out he has his mother's skin dried and stretched into a lamp shade.

I've dated a few. My most recent ex was a really nice guy. Unfortunately he still lived and worked with his father, who is a drunk, mean, evil narcissist that does random violent things like setting fire to my ex's XBox...while it was still in the middle of a wooden table in his room! Yeah, thanks but no thanks.

But the prize goes to the one I didn't actually date, at least to my knowledge. Friend of a friend that I met at a local bar, chatted for all of 5 minutes. A week later, he shows up at a different bar that I happen to be at and tries to give me expensive lingerie. I decline of course, and sort of back away slowly. A month after that, he comes storming into the same bar screaming at me about how he's breaking up with me because I don't pay enough attention to him. Okaaayyyy....
