    Just wondering what to do in the situation when the profile of your date and reality are two completely different things.

    In my case, the date that had been texting me sweet nothings all week turned up in a track suit and looked like a truck driver.

    I couldn't wait to get my dinner down my neck and get out of there.

    Maybe I should have just dumped her in the car park and gone straight home?
    Wow that's so truck driver ist.

    Are you assuming all truck drivers are fat cnuts with a moustache?

    Also did like none of the photos even suggest this?

    What made her think a tracksuit was the best thing to wear?

    So many questions so little genuine interest.

    So I order a big beautiful steak, she orders the same, they arrive and we tuck in

    I need a pee, so head off to the toilet, when i get back, something looks odd but cant put my finger on it, i dont remember eating so much steak, I look over and the head waiter is laughing and pointing and Scuffy mike, indicating he had eaten my steak !!!!

    i then notice my wine glass is empty !!!
    ROFL!!!
    This is the by far the moat hilarious thing I have read on here.

    she turns up with a scruffy middle aged "Male" friend

    "ohh do you mind, I was going out the door and Mike popped round - so I brought him with me"

    The head waiter bursts out laughing as he fetches another chair (to this day, he cant keep a straight face when I go in)

    I had a go. Hated it.

    Turned up to a date in Boisdales and saw this lonely guy surrounded by champagne and oysters as I walked in. I can't stand oysters so I popped out before he saw me and found a homeless guy in need a of a meal to help me out.

    Having been married over 20 years this internet thing is not something I've ever done.

    Mate of mine recently divorced just used to spam everyone and see if any bit. Law of averages he did quite well. Not always top quality but every hole is a goal and all that!
