Well, in commemoration of reaching 200 posts without getting banned, I thought I'd start a thread in my new favorite part of dakka.

So, what is the most interesting and/or crazy person you've ever dated?

I'd start but mine have been sadly boring. I'm working on finding more crazy people though.

Feel free to discuss! I'd hate this to be a "x happened" thread where no one pays attention to what the other people are saying.

Well, to expand on what I said in the other thread.

A bisexual girl in gender studies that also happened to be a hooker. I had just come out of a relationship, and she was incredibly direct about her attraction toward me, so I went with it. It was actually one of my best relationship, to date, mostly because that girl was incredibly intelligent, and was one hell of a debater, even if some of the stuff she said was utterly crazy. But 2 months in I knew I'd get attached, so we parted ways.

Both very interesting and very crazy.

Hillary Clinton. And to this day Bill still doesn't know! Haha!

A member of the Mondale family. Walter's granddaughter.

Mmmm I attract psychos like a lamp attracts moths.

1st Serious GF: Former lesbian who's life I saved twice, left me for another girl who was in the hospital with her, last any one heard of her she was on drugs somewhere.

1st (and last) wife: I could write a book on her psycho. Abusive, tried to kill me with a frying pan, started cheating on me two weeks after the honeymoon, slept with approximately half my base, wrecked the house when she left and most oddly left the dog's tags on the hooks for their leashes... creepy as hell.

Interesting: Ex-fiancee from a tiny mining town in Alaska (population seven or so) extremely intelligent, completely under her mother's thumb.

Hot stuff!
Creepy what Internet allows to do.

I mean, I knew who she was well before we started dating. I got in by being the only guy that didn't ask her "Are you related to Walter?"

This is a bad, baaad thread.

Is this another Dakka meme I don't know off, like 'BLAME THE VICTIM'?

If not, you could also just go with the 'interesting' side of the question.

A very interesting redhead many years ago.

Fiery (but not crazy), passionate (but not crazy) and quite intelligent, too. Hated any of the usual redhead nicknames (as they do).

Relationship lasted about a year. She was good for me - we're still friends.

I don't - as a rule - get involved with psycho girls. That's my brother's role in life. He had this uncanny knack to piss off both redheads he's known (married one of them). Although the one he married wasn't crazy - she was also a lawyer.

Don't piss off the redhead lawyer - especially if you are married to her.

About the craziest i dated (only twice, so not enough to even consider a gf) was this mormon chick....thing is, she invited me to a 'church picnic' and i had no idea, as to that point she had only said she went to church....

She was also a model (she actually was in an ad in some teen girl targeted magazine)...combine mormon and model, and you've got one crazy girl.

Once I was in Niche in Sheffield, a club notorious for stabbings and general bad stuff (DJ stands behind a caged window for example) and was getting off with this girl in there. She told me her dad owned the club then started showing me photos of here seven children (she was about 20). I tried to bail as I didn't want to be on the Jeremy Kyle show and then she 'ordered' a bouncer to stop me. Then four of them dragged me outside and beat me up. So yeh that's the craziest girl I didn't date. My girlfriends have actually been all right on the crazy level, honestly.

Not my own experience, but i was told by a friend that when his GF found he was cheating on her, she sat down with a stack of his CD's / DVD's and phoned him up when she knew he wasnt at home. She asked him if he was cheating on her, each time he said "no" she snapped a disc in half. She got to about 26 discs snapped before he gave her the right answer....

I have a very good Craze-e-dar.

The first girl I "dated" after my divorce I met on a dating site.

She was 10 years older than the age on her profile and 50+ pounds heavier than her profile picture. She took her bipolar medication with her seven and seven at the bar. I told her I wasn't interested in having dinner with her and left after my drink. I made sure profile pictures were recent after that.

Another girl I met through a friend of a friend sort of thing was a former stripper that spent 6 months in the crazy house in her youth. I found all of this out after a few dates. Very talented young lady, but 14 years was too much of an age difference (she was very immature). Ah well.

Other dates I've had were perfectly normal, I'm afraid.

I'm just quirky enough that REALLY crazy chicks seem to avoid ME. The craziest girl I've actually dated is my wife. She once threw a bunch of gak and broke up with me just to have make up sex. Since I packed up all my stuff and was about to lead for good before she clued me in to the plan, it just came off crazy. She's just hyper emotional, now I just know to ride the roller coaster and be there when she comes down.She reminds me a lot of the character Gloria from Modern Family.

My roommate in Savannah found some real winners though. For his 20th birth anniversary we took him to a titty bar where one of our.coworkers wife worked and a stripper broke, BROKE! A belt across his back and later heated up and branded him with a lighter. He dated her for two months. THEN he started dating some columbian chick. She would get high (on coke, way to live a stereotype) and they'd have crazy sex; then she came at him with a knife and got him in the side. Hot, but totally psycho.

Another one of our co-workers married a girl we ALL knew was crazy. They started to be on the splits and one day he comes to work wit a black eye and some lame ass story he got jumped at a bar. A week later he has a broken arm. I swear to God she made him put his arm in the door and slammed it after whipping the gak out of him. I dropped him off at his place a week later and his door was kicked in. The place was tossed and that crazy bitch was waiting in the dark on the couch. I called the cops and we put him in the barracks to protect him from his abusive spouse. Bwahhahah.

This is a dangerous thread... my ex's brother is on these forums >.>

(for the record: She ISN'T crazy, she just has problems, I have a possible diagnosis for her that seems to fit (given to me by a therapist that I had to see to work through the problems she's caused for me) but its not my place to discuss that)

Well, to make a long story short, I met this girl online in October/November, we hit it off instantly. She warned me going in that she had depression issues, etc. and I was like, "It happens to the best of us" and went for it full steam ahead, even though it ended up being long distance a couple months later when I graduated college (in December). First couple months were great, I was absolutely totally in love with her like I've never been with anyone or anything else... then things started getting shaky. She had a suicidal episode in March after we had a fight, had to call the cops, afterwards she insisted she wasn't suicidal, then that she was, then that she wasn't, last time we spoke about the subject (about a month ago) her stance was that she was grateful that I did what I did. Convinced her to get therapy/get antidepressants, she had a reaction to the stuff in April/May and went legitimately psycho on me, told me that she had fallen out of love with me long ago, and that she was a slut and wanted to do drugs (I'm talking hard drugs here), etc. and did a lot of things that she would otherwise never do, and later ended up regretting. She broke up with me after about a month of me pleading with her to let me see her and let me talk to her therapist, etc. and getting pissed that she was basically, more or less, cheating on me. A few weeks later she came down from her high and crashed. We talked some, I eventually forgave her and we were 'just friends' for a bit. One day she was in my neck of the woods with a friend and asked if we could meet up. I agreed, met up in Times Square, as soon as she saw me she latched on to me and wouldn't let go and could barely contain herself from crying. She begged for me back, told me that she wished she could have realized how much I meant to her, etc. and she wanted to introduce me to her parents. I was a bit put off at first, but then all the old feelings I had for her came back. So, I went up to meet her parents. Arrived there late on a friday night, we stayed up late talking, she admitted to me that she is 16 years old (she had told me she was 19)... I'm 22... I freaked out (silently, to myself) for a few minutes, but she insisted that her entire family was aware of the age difference and they were all okay with it (it seems that was true for the most part), so I said... okay, why not? The weekend was easily one of the best of my life, she told me she had never been so happy before, etc. etc. and she couldn't wait to see me again. We agreed to not get back together formally until I came up to visit her again (scheduled for 2 weekends later), so that we wouldn't rush into things and we could work out our problems and start over fresh. The rest of that week was great. Then she spent the weekend hanging out with a friend... whos a lesbian... in the Navy... I had a really uneasy feeling about things but dismissed it as paranoia... well... 5 days after she had told me she couldn't wait to see me again, and she was so happy with me, and so glad that her family apparently loved me (she introduced me to more than just her immediate family), and that her feelings for me were coming to her so easily and naturally... she calls me up, and tells me that she realized that she is gay, and that she (somehow) forced herself to feel attracted to me and to love me, and that she was so sorry to hurt me like that, etc. All this happened about three weeks ago. She wasted no time starting a new relationship with her lesbian friend, has barely spoken to me since (except to call me this past sunday in what seemed to be a suicidal state because she was so upset that she had hurt someone that she 'really deeply loved' (apparently I have no idea what they have between them...), because they broke up after she confessed to her friend her age, and then got back together later that night after she apparently convinced her to come back). Needless to say I am still suffering/recovering from that traumatic experience...

It's worse too because I'm still in love with her, and am reasonably certain she isn't really a lesbian (though I do believe that she thinks that she is), and that this relationship will be short (owing to the nature fo the suspected diagnosis), and when its over she will possibly realize this as well and come back to me... the problem being that when that happens, i'll have like... the best three weeks of my life, and this is all going to start all over again... Also reasonably sure that what happened in April/May was going to happen regardless of what medication she was on... Don't know how to quit her >.< And to add insult to injury... a Sailor (I did Air Force ROTC in College, couldn't commission but still looking to get in, failing that Marines or Army, never Navy...)!? >.<

I have two near misses (mrs - pun intended ).

1 - playing wingman for a mate went back with his GFs twin sister to their house. She took me upstairs to her room which I can only describe as a little girls room. It was bright pink and filled with teddies and dolls. I get the mandollie comparion but this was in a wiole differant level of creepy. She was mid/late 20's and stunning it was so weird. I couldn't get past the idea that she might be a bit bonkersand made for the exit.

2 - while being my usual charming self at a local scumy club I came to the attention of a comely young lady and after a few drinks and dancing she suggested that we might want to retire to her place. Brilliant but first she had to go and talk to her mum - who now? She walked over to a group of Traveller women and talked to the butchest most tattood looking woman I have ever seen in my life. Then realised that the girl I had been talking to was the queen bees daughter and despite the opportunity of a night of gypsy lovin' I could well have to have breakfast opposite her mum In a caravan and then have to try to escape Dale Farm without a shotgun wedding taking place. Cue a trip to the gents and a quick exit.

It's not all spotting crazy early and running away though, the next time I didn't notice she was bonkers until we had two kids. Still she tolerates my toy soldiers and the kids seem to like her so so I guess she's a keeper.

Oh man. Take your pick.

Girlfriend 1: Decided to start dating all of my friends. Classic levels of high school instability. As an edit, I think I should mention that I only bring this one up because of what's to follow. Girlfriend 2 makes this make sense, somewhat, but ya know, actually TALK to me about it first.

Girlfriend 2: I found out after the fact that she was the one who lied to Girlfriend 1 about me cheating on her, causing her to go after all my friends. Lots of drinking commences before problem resolved by breaking up with her on her birthday after one of her friends (who understood my position) intimated that I might have been planning on getting her an engagement ring. I then make a pass at her friends. Classic levels of high school instability (and delicious petty, petty revenge).

Girlfriend 3: One of girlfriend 2's friends. Dated for about a year before I couldn't stand her paranoid jealousy. Would cut herself and on several occasions demanded to know why I wasn't hitting her "because she was wrong". In retrospect, I kind of miss her.

Girlfriend 4: Most normal healthy relationship I've ever been in. I dated her for about 5 years through college and then a year or two afterwards. We got engaged, and closer to the wedding, she slowly began to 'go crazy' in ways that didn't make sense. Wouldn't go out anywhere. Wouldn't eat. Was utterly convinced I wanted to hurt her. Tried killing herself. We went to counseling. Fearing I WAS somehow doing something to her, I went to counseling. A week before the wedding, I was talking to her mom on the phone, who urged me not to go through with the wedding, for my own sake, citing that she's not sure what's become of her daughter, but it's not something I needed to ruin my life with. I found out a couple weeks later that she was cheating on me with random guys at her place of employment who were 10-15 years older than her.

Girlfriend 5: Cried whenever I wasn't around. I'm talking, "hey, you remember that Warhammer tournament I have down the road today that's been scheduled for a month? Well, I'm gonna... uh.. wait, why are you crying?" I offered to let her come. I genuinely don't know what she wanted from me, I mean, except for me never to leave except for work, apparently. This was a seemingly normal friend of a friend. I've since been told that I break women and I'm not allowed to date friends of friends. :(

(at this point there's a slew of girlfriends and one night stands too immemorable to recount. They all lasted a couple months at most before we broke it off for whatever reason, be it on them or on me)

Girlfriend 8: Relationship entirely predicated on sex. Weirdest (best) relationship ever. Anything we did would basically consist of "normal dating person thing", go back to the apartment, take her home. At one point she said that she didn't want to date me anymore, but wanted to remain friends, but for about 3 months afterwards, absolutely nothing changed about any of our activities, then she just completely disappeared. If my roommate didn't remember her, I'd have sworn I just made her up.

Girlfriend 9: Completely awesome, if for a Jesus freak. Intelligent, attractive, and actually like me. We dated for about 7 months, and everything was great. She wanted me to get into Christianity, for which I started giving it an honest attempt. I'd talk to her about stuff related to faith, reread more of the Bible than I'd read before (I'd already read quite a bit), and things were going amazingly. Then one day she came over and out of the blue broke up with me. She said there was something fundamentally missing from me, couldn't really explain it better, but said that she was done. I'm still scratching my head about that one.

At this point, I'm single and kind of thinking it would either be doing my psyche or the entire female populace, maybe both, a favor by not continuing to attempt to date.

While not as interesting as any of the other posts so far:

My first(and so far only GF) I met in High School while I was a writer for a F2P MMO. She was the Head Writer. We became friends and she flirted with me a lot. I was completely oblivious to it until her younger brother pointed it out after about 2 weeks. We dated for about 6 months, in that time period, I learned I was not the first person she worked with and dated. She fired this guy and dumped him before we started up. He would stalk her and call her all hours of the night with threatening messages. When she would tell me, I would told her to get a restraining order on him and block his number. She never did, and one day broke up with me. We stayed friends for a few years until we graduated and both stopped writing for the MMO. She went to college, met someone, and married him. I joined Dakka.

I have a real knack of attracting the crazies....First serious girlfriend was an a-typical goth chick, hated the world, hated her parents, hated her school, in fact let's just cut this short by saying that she hated everything. Except me. For some reason I bought the little giggly girl out in her, she was completely different around me than around her friends... Her moods were up and down and generally she was hard to be around. Awesome body though, and some, erm, interesting piercings....

The next was a lovely girl who happened to be dating one of my best mates at the time... The wierd thing was, we really detested each other for the whole time she was with said friend. It got to the stage that if she was with him there was no way I could spend time with him. Around 3 days after they broke up, I met her at a 'Pitchshifter' gig at Nottingham Rock City. We ended up sleeping together in a toilet cubicle and seeing each other for nearly 2 years. All normal right? Wrong. She was beyond psycho, when we split up she burst the tyres on my dads car and tried to slit her wrists...... *shivers*.

I've had a lot of strange relationships, most of which were with Feth-Buddies. You know the kind right?
"so, struck out again huh?"
"yup, you too?"
"yup, wanna go to bed?"

I got married 7 years ago and am happy to report that all is normal. Well, as normal as it can be in a long term relationship....

Whoa whoa whoa -- let's not contrast those two paths, please!

Hey I think that out of the two of us, I got the better deal there.

I dated a woman that was a professional Dominatrix just before I met my wife. She would do online cam shows and such. She apparently made good money. It was crazy knowing/dating her, it was pretty brief and definitely got old fast And thats it for crazy worth talking about. The closest one after that would be a girl that was naming our children on the first date. I told her she was fething nuts, tossed a 20 on the table and left the restaurant. Thats REALLY funny when I mention that I was her ride

Classy move. Did you take her home? That would have been hilarious.

Dude, sleeping in a toilet cubicle is not recommended, especially with other people. I mean, where do you lay your head? Just sounds uncomfortable.

Funny, I didn't have to read beyond this point to agree with you.

Yeah, I know.... But she is hot! It's all good. After all, it's not like I didn't know where she'd been. Right?
