Not all dates end up being as romantic as one might hope. But even the bad or weird dates can make for a pretty epic story (just maybe don't try to tell it on your next date, or you could become someone else's weird date story).
Someone asked men of Reddit: "What is the weirdest date you have been on?" And the responses did not disappoint (even if the dates did).
These 19 men share stories of dates they've been on that range from surprising and unconventional to completely batsh*t bonkers:
1.) From LoanedPurr:
We had pizza sitting on the floor, surrounded by her pet pigeons. No, not the cute doves.
She had a bunch of those rats from the skies that swarm cities. She finds them hurt and takes them in to care for them.
It was not a bad kind of weird.
2.) From Ben1313:
I went on an ice cream date with a girl once. It was going pretty well, then she abruptly got up and said "I need to go".
20 minutes later I get a text saying she was lactose intolerant and that she wanted to try again later that night.
