Notes in a....Hamburger? And Introducing the 'Dating Epic Fail' List

Contributed by Western Wilma:

Let me tell you a story from my life:

Long ago in a place far far away...there was a little girl named Izzabell. When she was just a small girl in first grade she began the adventure of 'dating?' Her best friend Manuel would walk her home to the stop light and exchange candy with her to show his love. The stop light of course was as far as Manuel was allowed to go. As the years passed Izzabell had many boyfriends that she ended up playing kick ball and football with during recess. Then she decided to 'go out' with some of her boyfriends. Since she wasn't allowed to date till she was 16. She would go to the skating rink every friday with her 'boyfriend' (Joshua). Then she realized there were many other opportunities out there so she continued to date other friends. Here are where the good stories begin and where the silly dates will be shared:

Once I was asked out with a note in a hamburger - Notes in balloons, Notes in ice, Notes in ice cream, Notes in leaves..... I know it was the dating craze to ask creatively, but really what else can you put notes in? I like the couragous 'knight' that just asks.

Here are some of the Dating Epic Fails I have experienced:

#1: putting your arm around the person you are dating after they tell you their back and shoulders are sun burned.
#2 insisting on only answering yes or no to questions and not reciprocating any questions back
#3 putting the moves on someone while they are asleep.
#4 Always looking somewhere else when talking or listening.
#5 obnoxious laughing at your own jokes
#6 Feeling for a garment line on their thigh
#7 Telling everyone but the person you are dating that you might be interested.
#8 Sincerely asking to make out with you on a first date
#9 Smashing your dates fingers in the car door.
#10 Cutting or Highlighting your dates hair..when you have no experience
#11 Insulting your date continuously
