Fight or Flight

August 29, 2012

This story is from Lilian, a 24-year-old legal assistant from Boston, as told to Raz:    I met Ted for our date at a coffee bar. The conversation started out fine (just the basic get-to-know-you questions) until we came to the topic of his college experience—and his college girlfriend. As soon as he mentioned her, I […]

Missed Connection

This story is from Stephanie, a 24-year-old office manager in NYC, as told to Raz: It was my average terrible commute to work. The 4/5 train was so crowded that I was shoved up against the door. But I decided to make the best of it, cranking up the volume on my iPod and silently […]

I Promise This is the Last Time I’ll Make Fun of Kevin

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

We Need to Talk About Kevin

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 […]

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 […]

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!
