Today, I met up on a blind date. He took a phone call one drink in and said he had to leave because he didn't know it was his buddy's birthday, and they were having a party without him. I offered to split the bill and put out a $20. He got up, unlocked the bicycle behind us and rode off. FML

Today, I went on a blind date. Not only did his phone go flat before I found him, but we were at totally different bars. FML

Today, I went on a blind date. He took one look at me and said, "Well, we might as well get a drink anyway." FML

Today, my blind date thought the best way to start off is to show up blind drunk. She ended up puking on the table and leaving me to pay. FML

Today, I went on a blind date. As soon as my date saw me walking towards him, he checked his watch and said, "Oops, wrong place." Then walked right past me. FML

Today, I went on a blind date. Not only I had already been on a date with the guy before, we'd also had both forgotten about it until halfway through the dinner. FML

Today, I went on a blind date. My date spent the whole time at the restaurant on his phone and didn't even try to show interest. Thankfully I'll never have to deal with this individual ever again. FML

Today, I went on a blind double date. My date was drunk before I got there. He kept getting my name wrong, and ended up spilling a glass of red wine down the front of my dress. FML

Today, my friends set me up on a blind date. I thought it went well, and while saying our goodbyes, I leaned in to give her a kiss. She pulled way, laughed, "I'm not drunk enough for that," and left. FML

Today, I went on a blind date that my friend set up for me. It was going pretty good, then he said he was going to go out to smoke. 10 minutes went by and he still hadn't come back. I called my friend and she said he doesn't smoke. FML

Wait? So if you ride a bike, you are poor? What if he lived nearby? Or his car was in the shop or didn't want to drive? Gold diggers are terrible people. Stop being one.

How could he not know it was his friend's birthday? That was just an excuse to leave, OP. You shouldn't have offered to pay for any of it.

I think the dick move is when he didn't pay for his beer. It was a blind date, never have dinner on a blind date! Also, you need to have a serious talk with whoever set this up for you.

If it makes you feel better sweetie, at least he didn't take the waitress's number before high-tailing it like one of my blind dates did!

Also, I think the whole bike issue is teenagers vs. adults. The teenagers and young twenties people obviously think it's fine. I'm 30 and make a very decent salary. Showing up on a bike would be a negative to me, yes, because I'm not looking to be anyone's sugar mama.
