The Road to Hell is Paved with Good Intentions

Looking back over my years of dating life, there are moments I remember with fondness. However, there are also moments I can laugh at now which were awkward at the time. In honor of such moments, I've translated some experiences - my own and others' - into an entertaining list of good ideas vs. bad ideas. Feel free to share some of your own making; I think we all would enjoy the laugh.

Good Idea: Hosting a movie night in a U-haul.
Bad Idea: Hosting a movie night on a mattress in a U-haul.

Good Idea: Wearing a dress to the prom.
Bad Idea: Wearing a teal dress to the prom when you're date is wearing a maroon vest.

Good Idea: Giving your date a good-night kiss.
Bad Idea: Giving your date's dog a good-night kiss.

Good Idea: Breaking the ice on a first date.
Bad Idea: Breaking wind on a first date.

Good Idea: Fishing for trout in a local lake.
Bad Idea: Fishing for wayward popcorn in your bra.

Good Idea: Grasping for the right words as you compliment her scarf.
