Smooth

By Jank - 30/06/2024 06:00 - United Kingdom - Doncaster

Today, on a third and hopefully eventful date, I tried to be smooth and pull out my date's chair for them at a restaurant. I misjudged the distance and ended up pulling the chair out from under them completely, causing them to fall. The rest of the date was spent apologizing profusely. No third base either. FML

Cursed

By Freddie - 25/03/2025 15:00 - United States - Chattanooga

Today, I went on my first date in months. It was going well until the waiter brought our drinks. I went to take a sip of my cocktail, but I misjudged the size of the glass and the stupid paper straw, and spilled it all over myself. The waiter said, “Well, at least it’s not a first date curse,” and I replied, “Oh, it definitely is.” It was, because I doubt I'll be seeing her again. FML

Many of those rules are, quite frankly, just impractical, and I say this as someone who is described by most as a gentleman. Trying to open a door for a girl, when it opens away from you, just makes you look like an idiot. Same with pulling a girl's chair out and pouring her drink for her. Women are no longer seen as fragile creatures, and rightly so. The art of being a gentleman needs to keep pace.
