My date looked like Santa Claus on vacation but was far from jolly – his behavior made me bolt when he used the bathroom
A SINGLE woman has revealed how a date with a man who looked old enough to be Kris Kringle went from bad to worse.
She explained how his appalling behavior made it clear he was not filled with Christmas spirit.
Reddit user asked other users to share their worst dates in a and one person delivered.
Redditor admitted that she had been on bad dates over the years, but there was one that took the cake.
"One of the worst was this guy I met on a dating site. We agreed to go to dinner at a nearby restaurant," she explained.
A major red flag from the beginning was that his dating app profile picture was of himself but just a "few" years old.
"He straight up looked like Santa Claus on vacation complete with the Hawaiian shirt," she said.
The woman admitted that she was a little unhappy about that detail but didn't think it was the end of the world.
She recalled how she gave her date the benefit of the doubt, thinking he could be "jolly and fun."
"That turned out to be a big NO," she said.

The man didn't waste any time telling her he had not one, but three previous marriages under his belt.
As they ordered food, he brought up his first wife, whom he described as a crazy b***h.
His vocabulary didn't get any better because that was what he also called his second.
He switched things up a bit for his third wife, dubbing her a "psycho-crazy b***h from hell."
"He told me ex [number three] hit him in the face with a frying pan," she said.
"He seemed to enjoy my horrified reaction. That was, until I asked what he did ... to her to make her smack him upside the head with said frying pan."
She said it was an "awful date" and she "couldn't wait" to leave at that point.
It was as if he knew I wanted to bolt out the door. I got my chance when he finally went to the men’s room.

However, when she mentioned that she wanted to get home soon, he ignored her request.
Instead, he ordered dessert and told her they would "discuss that later" because he was paying for the meal and wanted to enjoy it together.
She waited a few minutes and then ";politely excused herself" to the bathroom.
He stood up and watched her go in and continued to watch her as she returned to the table, she said.
"It was as if he knew I wanted to bolt out the door. I got my chance when he finally went to the men’s room," she said.
She quickly handed the waitress money for her food plus a tip, explaining she was on a "very bad date."
The Reddit user then hurried out of the restaurant just before he returned to their table.
When he saw she was leaving, he "started screaming like a lunatic" at her through the front windows.
She didn't stop to listen to what he was saying and just ran to her car.
