Woman Tells Hilarious Story Of Her Date With A Very Elderly Man

Woman Tells Hilarious Story Of Her Date With A Very Elderly Man

We're talking really old.

If you haven't been on a bad date or had an awkward dating app encounter then you haven't lived. It's horrific when it's happening, but afterwards you have a funny story to tell your mates.

That's exactly what Twitter user priya_ebooks found when she reluctantly went on a date with a guy from OKCupid.

Priya says she met this guy who had a dubious main picture but a profile which explained all the places he'd been in the world. He seemed interesting so she agreed to a meet-up. The first alarm bells rang when the knight in shining armour proposed dinner at six.

I'm not sure what race has to do with dinner time but she suggested a coffee instead. She arrived at the café and waited, but no one was there.

It was only after 10 minutes that she noticed a man behind a rack of coats, and realised he was her date. What ensues is both hilarious and terrifying:

She put a rough estimate of his age at around mid-to-late eighties. Apparently, the guy was drinking tea because coffee keeps him up at night.

Now, it was up until this point where I thought our protagonist was a bit harsh on the old guy. That quickly changed after this tweet

She says she didn't tell her friends because it was too embarrassing. But luckily the experience hasn't turned her off meeting the one and she's returned to online dating.
