Hard pass

By Gioia - This FML is from back in 2013 but it's good stuff - Bulgaria - Vidin

Today, I was so nervous about a first date that while trying to break a silence in the beginning, I asked, "So, you afraid of any insects?" No wonder I didn't get a second date. FML

The irony is that he had a phobia of social butterflies.

I don't see anything wrong in that question, maybe bit weird but.. yeah.

If he answered, "Yes, chickens," you should have terminated the date instantly.

I know right? Chickens are like the least scariest insects, in my opinion...

Nerves get the best of us! Keep trying op! It's a legit question though. Lol.

The Japanese Hornet. That's what I would have said. The Japanese Hornet.

That's actually a great date topic. Why ask the typical boring questions you get on every date? "I'm afraid of dragonflies because I was once told they bite!"

That's what you get for trying to show her your inch worm.

I don't think that's a very bad question to ask, honestly. It might spring up a long conversation about animals! Why anyone would refuse a second date for one question or nervousness alone is beyond me.
