People Share Their First Date Horror Stories

From the outside, this one is pure psychological chaos. She invites him on a date, gets physical, sits in his lap, whispers in his ear — every signal flashing green. Then the moment he leans in, the brakes slam: “I have a boyfriend.”

This is the nightmare where reality rewrites itself mid-scene. There’s no clear rule break, no obvious misread, just total contradiction. He’s left replaying every second, trying to figure out where the imaginary line was. The date ends, but the confusion sticks around indefinitely.
