EPISODE 13: The 'Near-Perfect' Date That Became a Hilarious Nightmare

I’m not sure you’re ready to hear this story….

Let me set the scene: it's a Thursday evening in London, and I'm gearing up for a first date with someone who isn’t my type but seems promising. I've had my fair share of dating adventures in the past four years of single life, but this one... well, let's just say it's one for the books.

In this episode of The Date with Confidence Podcast, I’m sharing the comical and cringe-worthy story of a first-date experience I recently had. Get ready to cringe along with me as I reveal all the gory details of the hilarious nightmare that was a first date.

Here are the key topics covered:

1. Accepting a New Date: Just days after being rejected by the guy in the previous episode (Am I Delusional?!) I start chatting with a new guy who asks me out on a date. The way he asks me out is hot. Things look promising.

2. Preparation for the Date: I’m putting in all the effort; the fake tan comes out, the outfit’s on point and I spend a couple of hours doing my hair and makeup, anticipating an enjoyable date with a genuinely nice guy.

3. Meeting at the Station: Discover why I always opt to meet my dates at the train station and why I think it’s the secret to breaking the ice and kicking the date off in the best way possible.

4. First Impressions Shattered: Learn how my hopes were instantly shattered when I met him outside of the station. I promise I’m not a snob!

5. Persistent Nose Issues: I can’t even believe this happened! I reveal exactly why this was the worst date I’ve been on and how the dinner table etiquette was far from ok.

6. Awkward Bill Moment: Is this not the most awkward ending to a first date?!

7. Rejection: I don’t believe in ghosting so I’m sharing exactly what I said to him two days later to let him know I wouldn’t be going back for seconds (and why I felt like such an arsehole afterwards!)

This date was certainly one for the books! While it didn't end in romance, it’s given us something to laugh about. There are people out there who’ll think he was an amazing date but on this occasion, he wasn’t for me.
