Some of the experiences that make us just stop

The Five Kids Fiasco


It all started innocently enough - a dinner date with a promising lady I met online. Little did I know that she would turn up not alone, but with her five kids in tow! I must say, managing a table for seven was not what I had anticipated. Needless to say, that one didn't lead to a second date.


Dashing about like tiny dessert monsters, her little rascals turned the place upside down! I couldn't escape fast enough, so I faked a bathroom break, settled the bill, and ninja-ed out the back door. Lost her number, and poof! She vanished into the dessert-covered horizon. Dodged that sweet bullet like a pro!

BBQ Blunder


Picture this - a sunny afternoon at a family barbecue, the smell of grilled sausages in the air, and me attempting to impress a potential date with my culinary skills. But alas, she was not impressed. In fact, she decided to make a statement by throwing her entire dinner in my face! Talk about a fiery end to a potential romance.


My mom goes full ninja mode, jumps over the table, grabs her hair, and gives her a few good slaps across the face. Then, she goes all Olympic on her, drags her down the 50-meter driveway, and does a dramatic toss off the property. And just like that, poof! She vanished into thin air. Mom's got some serious moves, I tell you!



The Unwanted Stalker

Ever had a stalker?, it's terrifying

Ever had the feeling of being watched? Well, I experienced that and more when one of my dates turned out to be a full-blown stalker. From surprise visits to incessant phone calls at all hours, I couldn't shake this person off no matter how hard I tried. Let's just say it was a relief when I finally escaped their clutches.


One fine evening, she decided to play the role of a bird and perched herself on a tree right outside my window, giving me a front-row seat to the show. I wasted no time and dialed 911, summoning the cavalry. Officers Mitch and Fox swiftly came to the rescue, trying to talk her down from her tree adventure. But oh, plot twist! She went full ninja mode and snatched Detective Fox's gun. That's when Detective Mitch channeled his inner action hero and fired three shots, bringing a dramatic end to her tree-climbing escapade. Talk about a tree-mendously intense situation!


The Unforeseen Twist

Just when I thought things couldn't get any worse, I discovered that one of my potential matches was not who they claimed to be. Imagine my surprise when what I thought was a promising connection turned out to be a man! Let's just say there was no second date - or any further communication, for that matter.


So, picture this: I show up for the date, and let me tell you, she was rocking a more masculine vibe than her pics. But hey, I shrugged it off. Then, her voice didn't quite match up, but I brushed it aside too. It was all good until we both hit the restroom and she casually strolled up to the urinal next to me, doing her thing with a surprise package. I had to make a quick exit, and there she was, smiling at me while I was washing up. I bolted out the door, ran to my car, and zoomed straight home. And that, my friends, was the end of that unforgettable date!



Conclusion: The Dating Conundrum


So there you have it, dear readers - my escapades in the world of Perth dating. It's safe to say that finding love is not for the faint of heart, especially when you encounter characters straight out of a sitcom. But hey, at least I have some hilarious stories to share at parties, right?


So, to all you single folks navigating the murky waters of online dating and political gatherings, take heart - you're not alone in your misadventures. Who knows, maybe your next date will be the one that makes all these escapades worth it. Or at the very least, they'll provide you with some fantastic anecdotes to entertain your friends with.


And remember, in the world of dating, sometimes you win, and sometimes you end up with a face full of barbecue. Here's to the journey, the laughs, and the hope that true love might just be around the corner.


Cheers to love, laughter, and the quest for that special someone!



Encore - Toothless Venny

Toothless Venny meant well

Alright, buckle up for the wild ride of encountering toothless Jenny! She introduces herself as "Venny" because, well, her teeth are on vacation. It's like a dental mystery novel unfolding before your eyes. Her dating profile, from the pre-drug era, shows a whole different Jenny – lost in addiction's Bermuda triangle.


Meeting Jenny face-to-face is like switching from black and white to technicolor. She casually asks for a smoke and orders top-shelf drinks like it's her royal decree. And just when you think it can't get crazier, her squad of Eshays pops up, turning the hotel into a reality show set.


Jenny goes full diva, playing musical chairs with the seating like she's the queen of the banquet. You, sensing the drama, ninja your way out to order drinks, then pull a Houdini disappearing act as Jenny's entourage turns the hotel lobby into a circus.


As you sprint to your car, Jenny's voice fading into the night, you decide to ghost her faster than a haunted house. Blocking her number is your grand finale, closing the curtain on this bizarre rom-com gone wrong. Bye-bye, Jenny, and hello to a new chapter of dating adventures!
