Hey all,
Went on a first date with a lass the other that I met though Plenty of fish. All going well, chatting normally, sat in the middle of a small restaurant. I was just getting over a cold so I had been blowing my nose loads beforehand and was really hoping to avoid it that night. Instead, half way through eating I feel something drip and look down to see my nose gushing blood all over my best shirt! I grab a napkin and run to the loo. Shes seen it and so has half the restaurant! Whilst I spend 10 minutes in the loo trying to sort myself out shes text asking if Im ok. After I finish cleaning up and hoping that it doesnt happen again and that my face isnt covered in blood I sheepishly return. Moods ruined, theres blood in my fajita's so I left it and Im as embarrassed as anyone can be. I pay for both of us and we go. I promptly apologised but since the moods ruined theres nothing much to talk about and she says she will get in contact. She has but the first date is all I can think about now! How would you have dealt with it?
Seems like she's nice enough tbh by her reaction & getting in touch as she said. You're probably way more bothered than she is - whatever you do, don't go on about it in the coming conversations/texts/whatever would be my advice.
Funny as hell though 😀
To be honest, I've known loads of relationships that have started with a horror story. If she doesn't contact you, it wasn't meant to be. However, if she does, probably means you're off to a strong start.
She probably thinks you're a cocaine fiend!
Only joking, feel bad for you mate but don't worry. If she doesn't call because of this then she's not worth it anyway.
She thinks you do loads of coke probably
it's a good opener for your wedding speech
say 'sorry about that' once, carry on
She called you so don't worry about it. Just a nose bleed what's the issue?
I dumped my missus off the back of a motorbike and into a stream whist crossing a ford on a first date.
you should have asked her for a couple of tampons to stuff up your nose 😀

Brilliant.
TBH if you are a nice enough bloke and the date went well otherwise, she is a cow for not wanting to see you again for something as minor as that.
I have had worse dates, even if I haven't lost anybody off the back of a bike 😳
Sounds like a good excuse for a second attempt!
how would you react?
I'd have finished the fajitas, what a waste!
Just sit back and see. You're on to a winner if she calls for another date. Either that or she is super needy/desperate 😆
Don't stress, she's called. Move on..
Think there are far worse things that could have happened on first date....and I don't think I need to go into details.
I called my wife a "F miserable cow " at the end of my first date. The relationship recovered.
Dumping your now missus off the back of a motorbike on a first date is pretty funny!
Thanks for all the replies, I would rather forget the incident now than go on about it to her and keep apologising! Time to ask her out for a second date.
It all depends on what you did for her to punch you in the face.
I'd be more concerned about the blood in your fajita. Best get it looked at.
My missus brought an "overnight bag" that first date.
Success! I thought.
She's still here. It's been 6 years.
I've also done the qwerty thing, if they like you they save the revenge for later (She pushed me in the canal), still went out for two years.
Call her up and ask for a second go.
Stick a tampon up affected nostril and carry on...
Interesting first story to reminise about.......
Text her something like "It'll be a funny story to tell the kids...LOL."
Arrange another date and get on with it.(providing you were having a good time pre bleed!)
I went on a first date years ago and was severely beaten up by 5 or 6 bodybuilder types.
We had plenty to talk about on the second date.....
Good job you did`nt sneeze on her !
I'd take a massively over the top wad of tissues to the next date and make a joke about it.
I fell asleep at the cinema on a first date once. When she nudged me to wake me up I shouted at her and told her to leave me alone. We got married a year later (and are still living happily ever after 12 years on).
Simple. If she can forget about it, so can you. Relationship goes well, it's something you can laugh about later.
Brave to go for a meal on a first date, I must say!

Damn it, dribbled beer while laughing.
