People Share Their First Date Horror Stories

Everything’s fine. Normal date. Normal conversation. Then, somewhere between the radio and the turn signal, she drops a sentence so deranged it permanently alters the vibe of the vehicle. No buildup. No joke framing. Just a sincere belief that people over 65 should be eliminated.

At that point, the date is over even though the car is still moving. There’s no clever response, no debate worth having — only the quiet realization that you are trapped in a moving object with someone who just revealed a deeply unsettling worldview. You nod, you survive the drive, and you never, ever ask follow-up questions.
