Just Don’t Do It
This story is from Kate, a 25-year-old (happy birthday, Kate!) merchandising assistant in NYC, as told to Raz: It was a Saturday night, and I went out for an old friend’s birthday party. It was a little awkward because her roommate Lara and I were kind of on the outs. Regardless, I showed up to […]
Moving On
September 10, 2012
This story is from Lilian, a 24-year-old legal assistant from Boston, as told to Raz: One weekend, I was at brunch with my friend Shelly and a lot of her friends. And when I say brunch, I mean drunk brunch. The mimosas and bloody Marys were flowing like water. At one point, Shelly informed me […]
Return of the Dreaded Ex
July 27, 2012
This story is from Rebecca, a 25-year-old journalist in NYC, as told to Raz: I met Ashton through my friend Sarah, who said he was a great guy who recently got out of a serious relationship. I was skeptical at first, but then she showed me a picture, and he was so pretty! Plus, Sarah […]
Back Seat, Windows Up
June 25, 2012
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. […]
The Guys Who Loved Me
June 18, 2012
This story is from Lilian, a 24-year-old legal assistant from Boston, as told to Raz: One Saturday night, my roommate Christina decided that we should have a party.

Never Let Your Ex-Boyfriend Set You Up
May 24, 2012
This story is from Ellie, a 23-year-old graduate student living in Los Angeles, as told to Raz: I have a really good relationship with my ex—we parted as friends—so when he introduced me to his new roommate, Tony, and suggested we’d hit it off, I trusted that he was a good guy. Tony and I […]
The Tournament
May 20, 2012
This story is from Rebecca, a 25-year-old journalist living in NYC, as told to Raz: Tyler and I met at a friend’s party. A friend who assured me that Tyler was a great guy and I should “totally go for it.” So I did, and after about thirty minutes of my flirtatious charms, he asked […]
Here’s Waldo!
April 2, 2012
There’s nothing quite like meeting people the good old fashioned way. You know it: you’re at a loud, crowded bar, and as soon as you mention that that guy over there is kind of cute, your best girl friend has tapped him on the shoulder and asked, “Have you met Raz?” So smooth. That’s how […]
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!
