I went on a date with a guy in college and he talked about how big various anime girls tits were the entire time. Insta-ghost. Idk if that was a fixable personality trait but it wasn't my responsibility anyway.

Not quite as bad, but I went on a date with someone that just explained video games I hadn't played. He would ask about a video game and if I hadn't played it he'd speak about it uninterrupted for 10-20 minutes explaining the levels. Not even interesting lore or anything. It would be like listening to someone explain a speedrun, but their speedrun is just playing the game normally. I like video games and play with my partners and friends, and I even watch videos about video games I haven't played and I could only stand 3 of these rounds before ending the date. He was completely uninterested in talking about anything else and didn't even want to talk about games I had actually played. Only games I knew nothing about. Totally bizarre. It felt like a prank. Would make a great greentext from his perspective though.

Man that reminds me a lot of the game, oh I forget the name of it, but it had some vowels in the name, where you go in thinking the point is to kick a lot of butts and towers but it turns out the real point of the game is getting your ass kicked and having your team yell at you.

Like this one time I was playing and wanted to try this annoying character that bugged the hell out of me when others played him. Can't remember the name but he'd go like "ahhhhh" and then you'd be slow and couldn't use abilities even if you ran away and the ground would do this explody thing. Doesn't that sound soooo annoying? Anyways, I decided to try playing as this guy but I kept just dying instead of annoying the other team.

I see you want to say something but shut up for a bit, I'm not done yet.

So then I decided to try jungling. No, not juggling, I mean fighting the guys in the jungle. That way, I don't keep giving gold and xp to the other team when I repeatedly die, except for a few times when I accidentally thought their base was the jungle.

Anyways, we should play some games after we have sex at the end of the date. If you brought a gaming laptop, at least. If not, you can watch me play or give me a bj while I play or something so it's fun for you, too.

The cringe is so real. I had a guy bring his gaming laptop to a third date at my place. I was super into him and we went to my bedroom and he just set up his laptop. I could not pull him away from showing me his cool single player gaming collection. It's my fault because I kept going out with guys I met at cons. After the third time you think I'd learn my lesson but I didn't stop until poly became more pervasive and I ended up on dates with people who just forgot to mention that. I don't mind poly but you should be upfront about it. So glad I don't have to date anymore. It's an absolute disaster out there. Best of luck to everyone still doing it.
