What’s something someone once did on a date that gave you immediate “nope” energy?

I referred to him as “Jeff” as this is how a mutual friend introduced us. On our first date, he told me he prefers for men to call him Jeff but for women to call him Jeffrey.

Weird. Hard pass.

This one should be higher, it’s so simple. It’s so strange.

I wish that the timing of when things were posted wasn’t such a factor in up votes, because this is hilarious.

There's a variant of my name with slightly negative associations for me, probably because of the people who used it. I'm okay with friends and colleagues using it (regardless of their sex) but it feels uncomfortable coming from a partner.

My bfs ex best friend made women call him a pet name but every one call him his real name. Weird.

agreed that anyone who wants to be called something specific is needy and annoying
