In this hilarious memoir, we bring you 28 disastrous dates that will leave you amused and grateful for your own dating adventures.

1. The Delusional Magician

It all started with a blind date set up by a mutual friend. Little did I know that my night would be filled with uncomfortable magic tricks, disappearing acts, and the realization that this magician wasn't just delusional about his tricks but also about his importance in the grand scheme of things.

2. The Serenader on Steroids

Picture this: a candlelit rooftop dinner, soft music playing in the background, and a serenade by a man who takes 'enthusiasm' to a whole new level. From belting out high notes that could shatter glass to exuberant dance moves, this date left me questioning my taste in music and my decision to choose a venue that allowed open mic nights.

3. The Extreme Foodie

When someone claims to be a 'foodie,' you would assume they have good taste. Well, let me introduce you to a guy whose adventurous palate included dishes that were outrageously bizarre. From deep-fried insects to fermented fish sauce, this date made me appreciate my plain old burger and fries.

4. The Conspiracy Theorist

Ever been on a date with someone who believes in every conspiracy theory out there? I have. From the moon landing being faked to vaccines causing mind control, this guy managed to make dinner conversation both perplexing and terrifying.

5. The Phantom Texter

Technology has changed the way we communicate, but some people take it to a whole new level. This date seemed promising until his phone became the center of attention. I spent the night talking to his illuminated face, as he enthusiastically texted away, leaving me feeling invisible.

6. The Over-Enthusiastic Traveler

Meeting someone who loves to travel is great, but this person took it to the extreme. From showing off pictures of every single vacation they ever went on to dragging me to a travel agency to plan our honeymoon on the first date, I quickly realized that I wasn't signing up for a relationship but a world tour.

7. The Serial Selfie-Taker

Selfies have become a part of our culture, but this date took it to another level. Every few minutes, my date whipped out their phone, striking various poses with pouty lips and duck faces. It felt like a photo shoot instead of a date, and I couldn't help but wonder if they were more interested in me or their Instagram likes.

8. The Animal Whisperer

Having a soft spot for animals is admirable, but this date took it to a whole new level. From feeding birds mid-conversation to stopping every few steps to pet stray cats, the date felt like an elaborate animal kingdom tour rather than a chance to get to know each other.

9. The Frugal Foiler

We all appreciate someone who knows how to handle money, but this date took frugality to an extreme. From sharing meals to refusing to pay for parking, it felt like I was on a date with an accountant rather than a potential partner. Let's just say, extravagant gestures were not his strong suit.

10. The Competitive Gym Rat

I enjoy staying active, but this date turned it into a competition. From flexing his muscles at every opportunity to challenging me to push-up contests, the night felt more like a Spartan race than a chance to connect on a deeper level. I left feeling mentally and physically exhausted.

11. The Social Media Influencer

Living in the age of social media, it's not uncommon to meet someone who wants to make a living as an influencer. However, this date took it to another level. From staging impromptu photoshoots to constant hashtags in conversation, it felt like I was on a date with a walking, talking advertisement.

12. The Grammar Police Officer

Proper grammar is important, but this date turned into a full-blown language lesson. From correcting my every sentence to providing unsolicited grammar tips, it felt like I was being interviewed by an English professor instead of getting to know a potential partner.

13. The Never-Ending Monologuer

Ever been on a date with someone who loves to hear themselves talk? Well, this date took it to the extreme. From monologues about their childhood to recitations of their entire life story, I barely had a chance to get a word in edgewise. It felt like I was in an endless loop of "me, myself, and I."

14. The Free Spirit

We all love people who embrace their individuality, but this date put free-spiritedness on a pedestal. From performing impromptu dance routines in public places to spontaneous singing in the middle of a restaurant, it felt like I had signed up for a date with a traveling circus.

15. The Overly Honest Confessor

Honesty is essential in any relationship, but this date took it a bit too far. From sharing personal stories that were better left unspoken to brutally honest comments about my appearance, I quickly realized that this person had no filter whatsoever.

16. The Serial Dater

Ever met someone who seemed to be on a perpetual quest for love? This date was one of them. From constantly checking their dating app notifications during dinner to bragging about their impeccable dating record, it felt like I was just another entry in their long list of conquests.

17. The Etiquette Stickler

Manners are important, but this date took it to a whole new level. From pointing out the correct way to hold cutlery to being critical of every table manner, eating became a nerve-racking experience. I found myself overthinking every bite.

18. The Memory Bank

Having a good memory is impressive, but this date had a memory like an elephant. From recalling my childhood stories to uncontrollably reciting random facts, it felt like I was on a date with a human encyclopedia. I barely had a chance to form a coherent thought of my own.

19. The Fashion Faux Pas

We all make fashion blunders at some point, but this date took it to another level. From wearing socks with sandals to a mismatched outfit that could rival a clown, it was hard to focus on anything other than their fashion choices.

20. The Conspiracy-Theorist, Part 2

Oh yes, you read that right. There was not just one but two dates involving conspiracy theories. From discussing alien abductions to the government implanting tracking devices, it felt like I had stepped into a never-ending episode of The X-Files.

21. The Bad Joke Teller

I appreciate a good joke, but this date took it to another level. From cheesy pick-up lines to cringe-worthy puns, it felt like I was trapped in a stand-up comedy club. Let's just say, my laughter was more out of pity than genuine amusement.

22. The Wanderer

Have you ever been on a date with someone who can't sit still for a minute? This date was constantly on the move, bouncing from one place to another. It felt like we were on a speed dating challenge rather than a chance to foster meaningful connections.

23. The Pet Talker

Yes, we all love our furry friends, but this date took 'pet lover' to a whole new level. From showing me endless albums of their pet photos to calling their cat every few minutes to check if they were okay, I felt like I was competing for attention with a fluffy creature.

24. The Self-Proclaimed Psychic

Meeting someone who claims to possess psychic abilities is intriguing, but this date was beyond interesting. From predicting the outcomes of every restaurant dish to offering spontaneous palm readings, I wondered if this person had a secret crystal ball hidden in their pocket.

25. The Musical Mime

Non-verbal communication is essential, but this date took it to the extreme. From mimicking words to expressing emotions through exaggerated physical gestures, it felt like I was on a date with a silent theater performer. Needless to say, conversation was somewhat challenging.

26. The Dreamer

Daydreaming is a common occurrence, but this date's head was constantly in the clouds. From discussing their ever-changing life goals to sharing grandiose plans for the future, it felt like I was in the presence of someone who had perfected the art of living in a fantasy world.

27. The Paparazzi

Everyone enjoys capturing memories, but this date took photography to the next level. From requesting endless selfies to covertly snapping pictures of our interactions, I felt like I was being auditioned for a paparazzi-filled reality TV show.

28. The Never-Ending First Date

Have you ever been on a date that seems to go on forever? This date was exactly that. From morning coffee to dinner, dessert, and beyond, it felt like we were stuck in a time loop. Despite the initial chemistry, it was clear that this relationship would never progress past the first date.

So there you have it! 28 disastrous dates that will make you appreciate the quirks and adventures you've encountered in your own life. The world of dating is full of surprises, and although these experiences might not have led to everlasting love, they definitely provided some unforgettable memories. Next time you go on a date, remember that even if it doesn't go as planned, it might just make for an epic story in the future.

Poppy Mortimer is hungry for love. Will she find The One, or lose her appetite for men, forever?

Smart, attractive, and fueled by wide-eyed optimism, Poppy Mortimer leaves rainy England to start a new life-and find the perfect man-in exotic Australia. Surely somewhere out there, a Chris Hemsworth impersonator is just waiting to whisk her off her feet and show her the real charms of 'Down Under'.

But as Poppy launches into 28 dates, ranging from the outright hysterical to borderline traumatic, it becomes clear she's going to have to kiss a few frogs-assuming she doesn't croak first. From the seven-foot giant with a disturbing workout practice, to the exclusive party that turns out to be a lot more than just cocktails and canapes, Poppy starts to wonder if she should sue Disney for giving her false hope.

With gusto, humour, and a lot of heart, Poppy digs deep into her past as a child of divorce, and her ongoing journey as a modern woman and devoted romantic. Through laughter, tears, and characters that are truly stranger than fiction, Poppy won't stop until she finds true love-or something even greater.

Fans of Bridget Jones's Diary and Sex and the City (or any person who wants to feel better about their own dating life) will love this book.
