Welcome To BADONLINEDATES.com

Don’t be misled by the name - this dating and social network has been created to turn negative dating experiences into positive ones. In fact, this site is the exact opposite of what the name implies.

BadOnlineDates.com is a completely new and different way to find camaraderie while meeting like-minded people. It’s unlike the other dating sites and social networks in that BadOnlineDates.com has been created to connect people from all walks of life through their bad dating experiences. And let’s face it, we’ve all been there in some way or another and bad dates may feel isolating and just plain suck!

On that note, who among America’s 90 million singles hasn’t been on a bad date? At some point during your life regardless of your age, gender or sexual orientation, you’ve probably asked yourself, just how many bad dates does one person have to be subjected to?

It was my own life’s multiple combo plate of bad dates, such as: the sloppy drunk guys; or the guys who never offered, but expected me to drive on our first date; and other similar experiences that inspired me to create this supportive community.

In the midst of my own search for love (current status: looking, but in no hurry), I also wrote a book called Don’t Use My Sweater Like a Towel where I devoted 12 months of dating and documenting with the specific purpose of collecting data, compiling research, and asking important questions that may or may not have been posed to the public in the way I have done.

On an unexpected and life-changing path, I discovered that: 1) we are hardwired to either be attracted to or repulsed by certain characteristics; and 2) we’re all really looking for the same things; companionship, to feel loved, and to feel safe.

That road to finding true love may contain a mixed bag of both good and bad date bumps. Do any of these sound familiar to you?

  • Yes, your date really did just run three stop lights while driving 60 miles per hour in a school zone.
  • Yes, your date just washed up their hands in your water glass.
  • Yes, the person you just slept with is hurrying you out because their girlfriend/boyfriend is on her way over.

And it can get worse!

We all know what we don’t like, especially in terms of what we look for in another person. The number one most important issue for me in life is respect, starting with yourself, then for others and the world around around you. You never have to accept disrespectful behavior on a date! No, nose picking is not sexy; and no, you should not spend your only free night of the week with someone whose dreadful table manners include a bird’s eye view of what they’re chewing. You deserve better and BadOnlineDates.com is here to help you find it.

We all have bad date stories to share.

BadOnlineDates.com is paving a new path through the dating and mating nonsense by using a keyword matching process that connects you to people who have literally and figuratively been where you have been. When you create a profile and share your bad date stories or story, the BadOnlineDates.com system will pair you up with other singles who have similar profiles.

How does it work? I believe that by revealing what you don’t like through a story sheds more light on your true dating colors, likes, and dislikes rather than the more traditional laundry list of eye color, weight, and education. Funny how everyone online is “down-to-earth” and how the he or she you just met seems like Mr. or Miss Right ‘till they go AWOL for two weeks, then call and think nothing of it.

Meeting someone with similar and comparable bad date stories will provide you with a deeper insight into that person’s likes, dislikes and behaviors right off the get go. Right away, you’ve peeled off that first and important layer of what you know you don’t want.

Banish Bad Dates Forever

Don’t be shy! Log in and tell your bad date stories or story, create a profile, type in the behaviors and traits that you are NOT looking for in the keyword match section and turn your bad dating experiences into positive ones by connecting with like-minded people. Your bad dates deserve to be exposed!


Happy Dating
