We have a nice dinner and as we're ready to leave, I realize I don't have my wallet... I left it in my car because I don't like sitting on it while I drive.So I say... "Uh, I don't have my wallet..." and look stupid.Because I'm the old-fashioned type, I like to pay for things on dates. So she hadn't brought her wallet with her either. D'OH. So she drove 15 minutes to her place, got our wallets, and we paid our tab, with the waiter giving me an understanding grin.So I tell her I'm taking her to this great movie that's just come out. We get there... and it's sold out.Bugger.So I say, "It's a pleasant summers evening, why don't we get ice cream and go for a walk?" We do, and it's very sweet. The walk, that is; of course the ice cream's sweet.We find ourselves outside of a park I played in when I was a tyke, so I helped her over the chest-high chain-link fence, hopped over myself, and we talked for a long while on the swingset.Time to go, and we walked back over to the fence. She's the independent type, so she wanted to hop over herself, without my help, so I vaulted over. She's also the independent type that wears sun dresses on beautiful summer evenings, and when she hopped over, the hem of her dress caught on the top of the fence. So the rest of her followed gravity down while her dress stayed up. That's when the other couple turned the coner and started walking toward us.Being chivalrous as well as old-fashioned, I was trying to not look, not touch, get her hem off the fence, and block the stranger's view. After a lot of hard work, I did accomplish the third.For as red as her face was, embarassed I recon, she took it very well, and we're still friends. But for some reason we never actually ever did manage to go on another date. That's my "Worst Date Ever" story <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
