View submission: What’s the weirdest / funniest / dumbest ick you’ve ever gotten from a (potential) romantic interest?

We went on a date, and it was amazing. I swear he was the epitome of a gentleman—such a nice guy, I can’t even comprehend it. I was really into him, and by the end of the night, he offered to drop me off at home instead of having my best friend pick me up, which was honestly really sweet. Just so you know, my best friend was still trailing behind us.

The night took a strange turn when he walked me to my door, hugged me, and then pointed to my stomach, saying, “This is where my future children will be” I couldn’t help but bloody laugh because I was so confused. So, I just said I wanted to go to bed.

After I made sure he had driven away, I called my best friend to come to my house. We laughed so hard that we could barely get inside. Honestly, I was really freaked out by what he said because he was everything I had been looking for in a guy. From first impressions, he was hilarious and sweet. We talked about life, and he wasn’t even sexually forward at all. Plus, he was tall with a bit of a rugged look, and he made good money.

My best friend and I decided to call him. I asked, “What do you mean by your future children? That’s really confusing and kind of creepy.” He responded, “I’m just stating my wants and needs; I’m a dominant man.” I couldn’t believe it. I never spoke to him again. Honestly, it felt like such a loss.

Sounds like you dodged a psychological bullet! Good thing he couldn’t even finish the date without outing himself. Kudos for giving him feedback to think about (though not likely anytime soon given his incredibly cringe response)

I'm sorry, what?! Lol my face would be so twisted in disgust (as it was while reading this) if a man said this to me that he'd think I was having a medical episode.
