Please tell me your wildest dating experience in Vancouver
I just moved here last month and have already been through some disappointing but hilarious moments.
I met both men online.
Guy 1: We were scheduled to have lunch together. But a day before the date, my bank account got blocked when I tried to send money to a family member overseas.
I told him that we should postpone as I’d not have enough money until I sorted this out with the bank. But he told me not to worry about it because he’d pay for the lunch, so we met up.
During the date, he told me he had a crazy ex. I also learned that he had kids but didn’t see himself as a single father because he hadn’t met them for many years.
After the date, he told me he’d pay enjoyed meeting me and wanted to see me again. I told him that I didn’t think we’d be a good match and wished him luck. He then asked me to pay $25 for the lunch.
Guy 2: He told me he was 45 (I’m in my 30s). We met up for coffee, and the conversation went really well.
During the date, he mentioned that his retirement was approaching, so I asked him how old he was. He said he was 54.
At first, I thought I must have misunderstood something, so I went back to our initial messages after the date. When I confronted him, he said he got judged based on his age and he always felt like he was 45. He also mentioned that since we had a connection, this shouldn’t be a problem.
I’m not traumatized by what has happened but just want to read other people’s experiences to have a good laugh and stay positive.
