How many times have you been on a bad date? It's usually a blind date or a guy you met online, but he looks nothing like his picture and you're not attracted to him. So, what do you do? Do you run? Do you hide in the bathroom and then sneak out when he's not looking? Should you tell the guy you're not interested and then excuse yourself from the rest of the date? The answer is simple...start drinking A LOT. Order wine, gin and tonics, vodka and cranberries, tequila shots with lime, etc. Drink until you're right at the point of oblivion, and then thank him and say, "We should really do this again some time." Make it seem as if you really want to see him again. Otherwise, he's going to feel pretty shafted, especially when he sees the tab. Kiss him on the cheek if you have to. Also, if you don't know this person, keep an eye on your drink. Make sure once the waitress or bartender gives it to you, it stays in your sight. You don't want Mr. Bad Conversation to slip you anything.
Now, drinking copious amounts of liquor will not turn that frog into a prince, but it will help you have fun with the poor sap. It might loosen you up a little bit, and who knows maybe you'll see another side to this guy. Maybe he isn't as bad as you thought and maybe, just maybe he's nervous and needs a second date to work out the kinks. These are all possibilities. There are a lot of guys out there who aren't so bad; they just need practice at dating. So, remember be positive, pleasant, and plastered and turn your bad date into a night you'll probably forget in the morning ;-)
