While things might have not worked out in the end, you learned me to appreciate art in ways I did not think possible. I wish I still had the chance to tell you.

I still cringe when I think about how he made me do salsa with him on the street.. He probably thought it was the most romantic thing ever but it was my biggest ick.
Got a date story of your own?
Share your storyOn our first date we went to a museum and dinner, and eight hours flew by. 3 days later, for our second date, we decided to spend New Years together
I had been dating this girl for just over a month. She invited me to her brother's housewarming. I expected 30+ friends to turn up, so I decided to make cupcakes to hand out to everyone at the party. Turns out "the party" was a dinner with her brother, his girlfriend and their parents(!!). Best part: she saw me baking the huge batch of cupcakes and didn't say a word about it. She's my girlfriend now :)
It was our second date and he went to the bathroom. The waiter came with the bill (we hadn't ordered it, we were still eating). I panicked and I paid. We laughed about it the whole night and he took me for another meal the next day

Breeze dates organised
She was living in Munich and I in Holland. We were meeting after a month but I just couldn’t wait. I asked my mom to drop me at 06:00h at the petrol station close to the border no questions asked. I noticed now I was madly in love. 12 hours later I arrived hitchhiking at your door to surprise you. And left two days later again. 7 years later we got married and you still give me the same thrill as that day
She arrived drunk, i noticed that too late, just when she started dancing in the middle of the restaurant
The date was average but good. We said our goodbyes, had intention to see each other again and exchanged contacts through the app. But apparently we both knew we weren't meant to followup, so we both kept the radio silence. We were a great match in that regard.
I noticed a few hours before the date on his profile that he had an extreme political view that would normally have been a dealbreaker for me, but decided to go regardless. In the end we spent hours talking about our opinions and, while there was no romantic connection, I learned so much and look back on the evening fondly!
Fancy a date story of your own?
Breeze skips the chatting and sets you up on a date. You just show up.
Get BreezeOkay so I went on a first date with this guy I met on Breeze, and at some point I mentioned how much I love loaded fries and how fries are obviously the best thing you can make out of potatoes. And this man genuinely goes: “What’s a potato?” I literally thought he was joking, but no. He had NEVER heard of a potato before. So there I was, trying to explain to a grown man what a potato is, and he was genuinely so blown away by this information. Meanwhile, I'm just sitting there thinking... is this not the biggest red flag you've ever seen??? 😭
I've always been the one behind the camera, never in the front. You noticed and took photos of me without asking. You even made sure our first kiss landed in our first photobooth strip on our second date. We didn't last; I guess that strip of 4 frames will outlast our connection.
We matched on a dating app, but I was leaving the city that night. I lost my flight, and she was flying in the morning of the next day! So we decided to meet at 8am in my airport gate. We had a weird but fun quick coffee and I almost lost my flight again. We are still in contact and will meet her soon again :)
So I'm on this date, and halfway through, the guy goes, "You know we've actually met before, right?" I had no idea what he was talking about. Turns out he was my best friend's summer boyfriend from a holiday when we were 14.
For our second date, I thought he was taking me out for dinner. Instead, he made me pancakes in his student flat: quite dirty, some mice, roommates walking in. I thought it was the cutest night, so I guess that says it all.
