Well, at least you had a date.

OK, here we go.
So I was meeting people on Match.com a few years ago. The strategy was, 2 or three exchanged e-mails, going to phone conversation ASAP, if the first phone call went well then coffee/drinks ASAP. I figured out fairly early that the less time in email or phone, the better.
So this "32-year-old" woman and I had exchanged a few emails and I had sent her my phone number. She called me on a Wednesday afternoon and wanted to know if I'd like to meet for drinks. In 45 minutes. Well, my schedule was open and she sounded pretty sexy, so I agreed. BTW, I was 35 at the time.
We met at a local pub at about 4:00 (McMenamins, for you in the NW) and she ordered a pitcher of beer. She was already pretty relaxed, and when she ordered the second pitcher she admitted that she had had a couple of glasses of wine before hand. Didn't seem to slow down her consumption, though. During the second pitcher, she made the following confessions:
1) Her younger boyfriend has just dropped her a few weeks ago - said he needed space, then stopped returning calls. Clearly not over him.
2) She just got "laid off" from her job as a counselor in a school for special-needs kids. Oregon was not laying off at the time... suspect she got fired.
3) She was not really 32 (like I cared!). She was 35. I asked why she lied about this (while wondering what else was fictional in her bio). She said that she didn't want 40-year -olds hitting on her. I explained that 40-year-old men, like 35-year-olds and 25-year-olds, will pretty much hit on anything with a pulse. In hindsight, I don't buy it - I think she lied to this boyfriend guy about her age and was hoping he'd see her ad and call.
Well, at this time, she's pretty drunk, and also admits to not having had lunch! So I tell her that we need to get food into her, and we go to a youth-oriented, casual Japanese restauarant nearby. Fortunately, they are empty.
She orders sake for two as soon as we sit down. At this point I am suspecting that she's just looking for casual sex to take the edge off of her getting dumped and fired, and I am debating my ethical position on this as I notice that she has killed the rest of the sake, and after praising the beautiful sake "set" (which didn't match), she proceeds to stuff it into the pockets of her cargo pants.
I manage to get her home, all the while continuing the debate in my head, which was obviated as soon as I get her into her house and she has to run to the bathroom and throw up. So here I am, first date, holding her hair out of the toilet and fetching her a glass of water as she cries. A drunk, crying, puking, depressed woman. I got her to her bed and I went home.
The next day she called me and told me that she was so embarrassed that she could never see me again - and she wasn't ready for a relationship anyway. Of course, I know what this means. About a year later, I meet someone who knows her (a former co-worker at the school! PDX is a small city) and it turns out she is married to a guy she first dated immediately after our date!
Anyway, that's my worst.
