Adventures with Benji: Part 1
I take back every bad thing that I’ve said about my other online dates, because this one was worse. I almost want to contact Kevin and apologize for making fun of him. Ok, no I don’t want to do that. Kevin sucks. But Benji is a whole new level of terrible. Benji is the new […]
I Promise This is the Last Time I’ll Make Fun of Kevin
March 10, 2012
Ridiculous way that Kevin (a.k.a Sushi Boy) tried to fill an awkward silence #5,823,674: “You know, sake is just hot vodka.” Between his business savvy, his culinary expertise and this fun fact, Kevin’s infinite wisdom is truly astounding. —Raz, 25, NYC
Mark Sucks
February 29, 2012
My latest adventure into the world of online dating almost made me want to throw in the towel. My date was with Mark (aka Negative Nancy). I learned a lot about Nancy throughout our date, and from what he told me I compiled this list of ten things that, according to him, really suck. Things […]
We Need to Talk About Kevin
February 17, 2012
I mentioned my first ever online date in a previous post, ”Risky Business,” but there was so much more that happened on that never ending date. My friends will forever refer to him as Sushi Boy because of this little doozy: So, Kevin was a nice Jewish “business man” from upstate. We’d emailed a little […]
Risky Business
February 9, 2012
This is a real conversation that I had with Kevin, a nice Jewish boy who I had met online. My first online date. It did not go well… Raz: What was your major? Kev: Jewish Studies Raz: Wow, how did you go from Jewish Studies to owning your own business? Kev: Oh, well when I […]
Have We Met?
February 9, 2012
Tom and I met at Libation, a bar on the lower east side. It was 3am. It was dark. I was drunk. The next day he texted me asking how the rest of my night was. We continued to have short, meaningless text conversations for weeks. Yes, weeks… that turned into months. When I received […]
Real dates, real men, real disasters
Who Am I?
I’m Raz, a twenty-something girl, living in New York City. I would say I’m pretty normal. I’ve got a good job (that doesn’t pay very much), good friends (none of whom I want to date), and a tiny apartment in Murray Hill (which I love). Did I mention I’m single? But it’s ok, because I’m realizing that dating in this crazy city can be kind of fun… if you have a good sense of humor.
Basically, these are my real-life dating stories. And yours. If you’ve had a date that made you wonder if you were secretly being filmed for an MTV reality show, I want to hear about it. Email me your tales of embarrassment, idiocy and intrigue at baddatesgoodpeople@gmail.com (along with your first name, age and location), and you may see your story on this blog!
