The Back Door
This story is from Rebecca, a 25-year-old journalist in NYC, as told to Raz: The first time I hooked up with Damien, this happened. Let’s be honest, the disaster of this date was not entirely his fault. The condom thing was all his roommate, and the rest of it… well, you can’t blame a guy […]

August 20, 2012
This story is from Christina, a 25-year-old dance teacher in Boston, as told to Raz: I met Nus at a speed dating event. He seemed charming, funny and confident—everything I don’t usually see in a man. We were on a second date, and he suggested karaoke. We both got a little drunk, and belted out […]
Burning Love
August 13, 2012
This story is from Rebecca, a 25-year-old journalist in NYC, as told to Raz: Damien and I had been on three dates before drifting our separate ways. But a couple months later, when I realized how long it had been since I’d last had sex, I decided to give him another chance. I texted him […]
An Evening Stroll
August 6, 2012
This story is from Alejandra a 24-year-old management consultant from Boston, as told to Raz: Charlie was a friend of my sister’s boyfriend. We’d met a couple times, we’d flirted and I had a crush.

The Weary Traveler
August 3, 2012
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. […]
Timing is Everything
July 30, 2012
This story is from Christina, a 25-year-old dance teacher in Boston, as told to Raz: This was my fourth date with Matt. A co-worker had set us up, and he seemed nice enough. We’d done some fun activities: ice skating and dancing. And he was six years older than me, so I assumed he was […]
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 […]
Sexual Dysfunction
July 20, 2012
This story if from Roxie, a 22-year-old grad student in Boston, as told to Raz: I have a confession to make: I didn’t stop seeing Johnny after this happened. Yeah, yeah, he was a player with really, really gross things under his bed, but I mentioned the really awesome sex right? Anyway, a couple weeks […]
My Last One Night Stand
July 16, 2012
This story is from Jamie, a 23-year-old photographer living in Chicago, as told to Raz: After a few months of wallowing in sorrow over a bad breakup, I decided to go a little bit crazy. In hindsight, trying to fill the void of my ex-boyfriend with sex was a very bad idea. Nobody told me […]
What Lies Beneath
July 13, 2012
This story is from Roxie, a 22-year-old grad student in Boston, as told to Raz: I’d heard about Johnny before I met him. Let’s just say his reputation was somewhat slutty. No, it was very slutty. But when we met at a party, we really clicked. He was so cute, we had so much in […]
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!
