My Worst DateI have horrible memories of a blind date where, desperately grabbing something at the last minute, I wore an enormously long scarf so she'd recognise me. I looked like a twat, it was clear she thought so too, and we stood saying nothing for 15 minutes in a pub before running away.
What's your worst date experience?

Not that I'm still bitter or anything...Breaking my board cherry. Woo.
This was many moons ago at a Sonic Youth gig. Something I had been looking forward to for a very, very long time. Me, my respective other and our friends got lost in the crowd rather frequently for brief times after going to the toilet or bar, but we found each other again relatively easily. At one point, I lose the girlfriend, but don't think it's any big deal since she would be back soon. Her absense turns into ten minutes, then twenty, then the gig is over and it's going-home time. Still no girlfriend. As it would turn out, she met some other guy at the bar and proceeded to hang around with him the rest of the evening before buggering off back to his flat. I get dumped shortly thereafter for "not having enough similar interests". Apparently, if I was a cheating manipulative whore, we would have got on great. Adding insult to injury, I met them at another gig about a year later where I was regaled with the story of how they met as though this was news to me.
I paid for the ticket too. It was not cheap. It irks me to this day.
