On a blind date! Been invited to dinner by some friends that keep trying to set me up, abysmal failure so far but 10/10 for effort.

So based on previous experience should I go or just stay in and watch Netflix

Just do it. Might as well. May go terrible yet it may be the one, like Neo. You won't really have lost anything by doing so.

You HAVE to go is the correct answer.

Up to you. A totally blind date would not be for me though. They could be an amazing fit for you, but imagine you turned up and there wasn't any attraction or common ground

If your friends are going to be there I don’t see why not? I guess it won’t be as awkward being in the company of people you already know.

I think the friends would be there too. I'd also be worried that the date would almost be entertainment for the friends though

In my experience the type of woman that go in blind dates are the type that need a guy to be blind to agree to date them

Historically over the last couple of years of these 'set ups' (5 so far) all have been excruciating.

Well, here we are, stuck in a classic first-world pickle. While we're out here waging war for that one precious date, there's someone in the shadows, pondering the existential dilemma of whether to skip a date altogether. In a perfectly just world, they'd be tried for Date-treason

Best of luck mate.

Go. You have nothing to lose.

I had my first serious relationship with a blind date, we had been set up by our mutual friends who were dating at the time.

Abysmal failure so far? How many times have they done this before?

I went on a blind date last year, we dated for a few months but agreed it wasn’t going anywhere. Distance to travel and busy work / home life but she was a lovely girl and wouldn’t struggle to get dates.

So you could get lucky and find she’s quite special.

Go. I went for lunch 4 months ago with a guy I’d barely chatted with although I had met him in person. 4 months later we’re still dating and making plans for a few months ahead.

You just never know when it’s going to work out. There was no ‘instant click’ but it’s uncanny how compatible we are even with an age gap.

Personally I see it like its like a free lotto ticket.

It might get you nothing or it might get you a wonderful experience.

Often with these things it's what you can make out of it yourself.

I am biased tho. I have 3 kids. Any excuse for a meal out without them is taken instantly

I've been set up unknowingly or I'd not have gone, once before by a "friends" wife, testiclular torture would have been better.

Me not a chance!!, as its yours or someone elses pain , thats always fun to see hear about.

So yeah do it

Update on last night's blind date:

Friends (I'll loosely call them that for now) organised a dinner and attempted to set me and Fiona (name changed for privacy reasons) up as a blind date. Initial reaction nice sparkling eyes unfortunately it then went down hill rapidly. Firstly she allowed 'friends' dog to give doggy kisses (her description mine was allowing dog to slobber all over her). Then I discover she love and has several dogs (I'm not a fan), conversation then meandered over to politics (yes I know politics, religion etc should never be discussed but it was) to discover she's an ardent brexitier - game over.

Meal was pleasant, conversation lively but as a set up...........

Coming to the conclusion these dinner dates my so called friends are for their entertainment and feels much more like the guardians lunch across the divide column.

So onwards in my search for fuck knows what

You need to focus on the important stuff more, look past the negative stuff.

Did she have good lips you could imagine wrapped around your beautiful penis?

How tight did her arse look when she stood up from the table?

Does she like ghostbusters?

Sorry to hear it didn't yield anything. At least some of the things you experienced acted similarly to filters and you discovered incompatibilities immediately. Thank you for sharing
