30 Dating Disasters People Had As Teenagers

Being a teen is confusing enough. You’re already trying to get a handle on life and human behavior. Throw some pheromones and an overactive sex drive into the mix, and you’re basically operating at full fight-or-flight. Which makes it wholly unsurprising that teen dating is full of ill-advised mishaps.

For your entertainment, Redditors relived some of their most shameful teen dating moments, and shared them with the whole internet. Chances are you’ve probably got a similar story, and if so, reading these might relieve some years-old anxiety. Or, you’ve always been an oozing font of charisma, in which case, shouldn’t you be out at the club or in Hollywood or something?

ordinaryaveragedude . 10y ago I took a girl to the movies. We got to out seats and she hinted that she wanted popcorn. I didn't get the hint. She got up and got it herself. As she was coming back to her seat | uncrossed my legs to stand up so she could pass and I kicked the bucket out of her hands, it flew like three rows. I had many more dating disasters in my teens, that was a biggie though.
Redsut t 10y ago Wanted my relationship to be like a movie
 . 10y ago Dated a gay guys for six months. Was always super impressed at my 16 year old boyfriends ability to fuck me for two hours. Such stamina! I thought.
cyberine . 10y ago She kept on saying she was cold and I had a huge coat on. She asked to borrow it; I said no.
abqkat . 10y ago If you're 17 and a 30-year-old is telling you how mature you are and that he feels a connection to you, run! It's simply not true. No one that age should relate to a teenager - if he does, he's either very emotionally stunted or some other glaring deficiency in his life or personality.
oogapalooza 10y ago When I first got with my partner he was still living with his parents so I used to go round there and we'd hang a sheet over the top bunk to hide us in the bottom. One time we're both naked, going at it and the door opens. His dad strikes up an entire conversation about god only knows what while my boyfriend is poking just his head around the blanket, then asks where did you get a BlackBerry? That's oogapalooza's Oh did she leave it here? No she's here ... awkward silence Hi oogapalooza
 . 10y ago Went out with a girl in my freshman year of high school that didn't go to my church (this is forbidden). Told my older brother in confidence. Found out that nothing you tell my brother is ever in confidence.
Foothills228 10y ago When I was in Gr 8 I went for a bike ride with a girl from my school. We went to the park, hung out and kissed too! We get back on our bikes and head home. When we get to her house and she says My parents won't be home for a couple of hours, do you want to come in and hang out? to which I said No, I've got to go home thinking all about how I wanted to play Legend of Zelda. It wasn't until I was sitting in my room, playing Zelda
Stubbedtoe33 . 10y ago . Edited 10y ago Thought if a girl liked you and you liked them and it was known, they would keep liking you even if you didn't call them and talk to them all the time.
 10y ago Before we left for our date, I promised her dad we'd be back by a definite time (he was focused on it). But, we got distracted - and arrived back to her parents' house a little late. Her father was standing there, staring. At which point, he broke the stony silence by saying, I was late coming back on my first date, too. (The smile on his face told both of us that he understood.)
Caron1822 a 10y ago Not even in my mid-teens but I had a date with a girl in a bar and I didn't know what kind of beer the girl ordered so I asked her what kind it was, she explained to me and then proceed to do a cheers! I tough she wanted me to taste it so I took her beer and took a sip out of it and gave it back to her.... She looked at me surprised and I realized my mistake.. good times
mightyatom13 . 10y ago I promised a girl who had a crush on me that I would take her out to dinner for her birthday. Then, Iron Maiden announced they were playing that same day. I took her out like I promised. 30 years later and I don't even remember her name, but I know for a fact | should have gone to see Iron Maiden instead. Dammit.
princessbu2015 . 10y ago My early-teen awful mistake was dating someone who was no longer in their teens... Instead of having these wonderfully awkward memories of discovering sex with someone else just has confused/eager as me, I only have memories of being shamed for not knowing what the hell was going on.
Deathtanz 10y ago Edited 10y ago Oh man, it's time to share my biggest regret EVER. I was going out with this amazing girl. She is well endowed, slim figure, nerdy, the whole package! I always had feelings for her back in junior high, but I started to go out with her during university. One day we were watching a movie in her house (Battle Royale, nice!) and she had bought a bag of gummy worms. The movie was at the middle part, and she decided to put a gummy worm on her mouth, for me to bite it, and
 10y ago Was dating a girl I was probably 14 or 15 at the time and she was the same age. Her bedroom is down in the basement and the rest of the house is upstairs. At this point we've been dating long enough where we were regularly having sex. One particular time after we nude up, her family comes downstairs to tell us to come up for dinner. Now when I say her family, it was legit her grandma, 2 aunts, mom, dad, sister and her dog jack. We are both buck naked under the blankets, she's trying
PhytoRemidiation 10y ago I was 16. I took a girl on a date. She seemed nervous as I think it may have been her first date ever. We went to dinner for pizza. She ordered 2 slices. After she finished the 1st slice, we talked for a good 20 minutes. I thought she was done and asked her, Hey so are you done with that? She looked at me funny and said Uh yea, sure. I happily said Ok, can I eat that so it doesn't go to waste? And she said uhhh yea sure. I went ahead and finished
 10y ago I'm 17, she's 15, we met online. Thankfully I wasn't murdered. We meet up to see a movie and being a fat guy with a mushroom cut my mind is blown she is interested in me. Half way through the movie I work up the courage and put my arm around her. She leaned in. Yeah, cool guy now, I'm thinking. Few seconds later she leans in for a kiss and I'm like it's time, so I lean in for what I intended to be a kiss but instead blew a raspberry on her lips and turned
PaulBlart_MallCopAMA 10y ago It was getting close to prom and I didn't have a date, so I asked this girl out that I wouldn't have asked otherwise. 3 days to prom and the girl I really wanted to ask out broke up with her boyfriend. I thought, golden opportunity right here. Obviously wasn't. I asked her to prom, she said yes, and then I made up a story to my first date about how I forgot I would be out of town during prom weekend. She was upset but believed it. Ended up having a really crappy time at prom,
SkaldtheRed 10y ago Thought that there had to be some perfect way to ask a girl out and I couldn't just to up to her and say, Hey, I like you. Wanna hang out? Instead I had to do something dramatic, which lead to me learning how to make origami roses. Never actually managed to ask her out.
MLG_Snipar_420 . 10y ago Accidentally gave my then girlfriend a hickey. Her family found out and made fun of her. When I went over to their place they made fun of me, as her father just glared at me. Needless to say it was awkward as fuck.
 10y ago A fly kept bugging her. She was like: Ugh, damn flies, so annoying!. And then I said: Well, you know, flies, they like to hang around SHIT. Yeah.
dubbelpunt 10y ago When I met my first boyfriend I really didn't have any experience at all. Old fashioned first kiss, first bf situation. Once we got in between the sheets one day, I assumed we needed to kiss passionately. Really passionately. I was a bit sick at the time (running nose). Lights out and I began to kiss him like a maniac. Only to notice after a couple of minutes that I was tasting snot. | smeared snot all over his face. The poor soul didn't say anything about it. We went to sleep. Never mentioned it. Thank god.
Whiskeybent341 . 10y ago Edited 10y ago I told my mother about my first kiss after she picked me up. It was just a peck. She flipped the fuck out and called the girls parents and chewed them out for raising a slut. Needless to say she never talked to me again. EDIT: My date never talked to me again. My mother unfortunately did.
 . 10y ago Primary mistake: assuming that no girl could possibly be interested in me, and fleeing in terror from any that showed signs they might be.
roonerspize 10y ago I was an innocent, inexperienced, awkward young man. I finally dated a girl my senior year of high school who was considerably more experienced. She was well-endowed. I was always careful not to make too bold of a move. Towards the end of our short relationship, we were sitting on the floor in my room kissing and she gently pushed me back on the floor, straddling me on her knees and had her tits right in my face, still clothed, mind you. It was impossible not to glance down at them which she noticed and said, you
 . 10y ago When I was 13/14, I was totally in love with a 19 year old Army guy and I couldn't understand why my dad wouldn't let me hang out with him. | was SOOOOO mature, surely he could see that I couldn't date high school boys!
that_was_awkward1111 C 10y ago | had my first boyfriend in middle school. We didn't last long, but when I decided it was time to break up I was at a loss as to how one goes about ending a relationship. I turned to romcoms for cues and came to the conclusion that I ought to set up a date and break up with him at the end of it. We planned on a movie. I arrived early and took my seat. Не came in a little later, handed me some Junior Mints, and sat beside me. The previews started and
 10y ago On my first date I went to the movies with this girl and I thought it was going great. We laughed and joked about the movie and stuff. After the movie had ended is when everything went wrong. See I had never been in this situation before so I really didn't know what to do after the movie was over. | could have asked if she enjoyed the movie or tell her we should do something like this again but no. I decided the best course of action was to walk out the movie theatre and say
1010101 . 10y ago First date ever, at about 15, moved in too fast for a kiss, she flinched, I French kissed her eyeball.
midget9 10y ago On a first date with a girl, we decide to just drive around after dinner. We had a great time exploring and found this creepy road back in the woods that was closed and I decided I wanted to be a rebel and go around the barriers, but she got a little freaked out and objected. That's when I realized from her perspective some guy had picked her up and took her back in the woods in the middle of nowhere on the first date. Unintended creepy as hell but a had a second date!
