Pulling A Fast One

September 17, 2012

You know a date is really bad when it’s so short that your bus ride home counts as a transfer from your bus ride there. I think my entire evening with Xavier lasted 45 minutes. It actually didn’t start out terribly, but I knew from the beginning that we were very different. He was from […]

This story is from Jules, a 21-year-old student from Chicago, as told to Raz: I work retail while in school, and a while back, this unbelievably cute guy, Rob, started working in my store. He mentioned that he’d done some local modeling, so after our first day working together, I did a little Facebook stalking. […]

This story is from Kendall, a 23-year-old assistant fashion buyer in NYC, as told to Raz. I’d hooked up with Aaron in college, but since then we’d gone our separate ways: I live in NYC, and he’s in Boston. But a couple weeks ago, he reached out and we had a decently long text conversation. […]

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 Kate, a 24-year-old merchandising assistant in NYC, as told to Raz: Steven was introduced to me by a friend one night at a club. He was a year younger than me, and it turns out, went to my high school. After talking for a while, we discovered that he’d actually been […]

The Break Up

Here’s a little tale that I’m still bitter about even though it went down a couple years back: My friend Laura invited me to come along to a party at her friend Jordan’s house. The second Jordan opened the door, I was attracted. Then he introduced me to his girlfriend, Sammi. Bummer. Sammi and Laura […]

This story is from Lauren, a 48-year-old lawyer from Chicago, as told to Raz: After my divorce, it seemed that every one of my friends had someone “perfect for me” that they just needed to set me up with. The problem was, these bachelors were almost always at least 15 years my senior. “Get used […]

This story is from Jen, a 24-year-old journalist living in NYC, as told to Raz: Pat and I had been dating for a little over a month. He was funny and smart (an engineer), and when he invited me to a housewarming party at his new apartment, I was excited. This was my first chance […]

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!
