Everyone has had at least one awkward moment during a first date but this Tinder date went from good to bad real fast. We’re cringing and laughing at it.
A Bristol, UK university student shared the very true and very awkward tale on a crowdfunding website. He set up the page to raise funds for the damages to his dorm after the embarrassing Tinder date.
Liam Smyth met a girl on Tinder and the two went out to have a Nandos. When dinner was done, they set off to his dorm for a bottle of wine and a few movies. During the movie his date excused herself to use the bathroom.
“We had a lovely evening, and enjoyed each other’s company very much.”
“After our meal, we repaired back to my house for a bottle of wine and a scientology documentary.”
“About an hour in to Louis Theroux and chill, my date got up to use the toilet. She returned with a panicked look in her eye, and told me she had something to tell me.”
A little puzzled, Liam encouraged her to tell him what she needed to. What he heard next was so beyond anything he expected to ever hear a person say.
“’I went for a poo in your toilet’, she told me ‘and it would not flush. I don’t know why I did this, but I panicked’, she continued ‘I reached into the toilet bowl, wrapped it in tissue paper, and threw it out of the window’.”
We know what you are thinking… “Nobody would do something like that! This cannot possibly be a real story?” Well it really is a real story and it only gets more awkward!
Turns out the window she threw her floatie out of, wasn’t an actual window. It was just a gap between two panes of glass. So there it sat stuck between the bathroom and outside world. Liam decided to grab a hammer and smash the window. His date refused and hoisted herself up to reach in-between the panes and hoist it out herself.
“Being an amateur gymnast, she was convinced that she could reach into the window and pull the poo out, using the tried and tested “inside out bag as glove” technique. Unfortunately she couldn’t reach. She climbed further in and had the same problem. Eventually I agreed to give her a boost up and into the window.”
“She climbed in head first after her own turd, reached deeper into the window, bagged it up, and passed it out, over the top and back into the toilet from whence it came. She called out to me to help her climb out from the window, I grabbed her waist and I pulled. But she was stuck. Stuck fast. Try as we might, we could not remove her from the window. She was stuck fast, upside down in the gap.”
There was no other option but to call the fire department in. They arrived in lightning speed and entered the bathroom to see the young lady wedged between the two windows.
“Bristol’s finest were on scene sirens blaring in a matter of minutes. Once they had composed themselves after surveying the scene in front of them, they set to work removing my date from the window using all of their special firemen hammers and tools. It took them about 15 minutes.”
The damage done to the two windows was quoted and as a student it was unaffordable so that is why Liam decided to share the story in the first place. He hoped to raise the £300 and promised that if there is any other money left it will be split 50/50 between two charities.
“If by some miracle I manage to raise more money through this page than the cost of the window, any remainder will be split 50/50 between two charities:
“First, toilet twinning, a charity building and maintaining flushing toilets in the developing world. 60% of people worldwide don’t have access to a flushing toilet.
“Second, to the firefighter’s charity. The guys who came to the house were brilliant, took everything in good humour, and professional.”
The fire department confirmed that the incident actually took place. Liam has raised over £1,750 in just 19 hours. The good news is that two charities will now get some extra funds thanks to Liam and his disaster date. You can see the cringe/hilarious images below.
