This story is from Rebecca, a 25-year-old journalist in NYC, as told to Raz: I met Nick drunk at a bar (click here for details), and we started casually dating.

This story is from Emma, a 28-year-old teacher in Boston, as told to Raz: The school that I work at has an annual retreat for all employees, and for whatever reason, the men go to one location and the women to another. Ours was in New Hampshire, about an hour and a half from Boston. […]

This tale is one of voyeurism. I, Raz, witnessed a stranger’s awkward experience with a man and decided to share. This was also an awkward experience for me.

Bad Date

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!

Raz is on Twitter!
