The worst date I've ever been on was: I went out to eat with my boyfriend of 1 ½ years and he decided to fill out a card for me for some contest. After a couple minutes, he handed me the card and said "You fill out the rest." Needless to say he had forgotten my birthday, which is why he gave me the card when that question came up.
