Date Night James

Just an awkward single man failing to date successfully, and chronicling his tragedy as he goes. #datenightlive #DNL4LYF

[Date Night James @datenightjames]

When the glasses are empty and you've bought the last two rounds... #datenightlive

[Date Night James @datenightjames]

Um, I bought the first round and the second round. And not because I offered, but because the glasses has been empty for some time and a reciprocation was NOT forthcoming. That's not good etiquette in my book. #datenightlive

[Date Night James @datenightjames]

I've managed to be just five minutes early, just long enough to massively freak out about everything in my life and turn into a nervous wreck by the time she arrives. #datenightlive

[Date Night James @datenightjames]

Also to anyone who believes that outfit dilemmas are a female-only problem: I had a full change of clothes five minutes before I was supposed to leave. #datenightlive

[Date Night James @datenightjames]

Someone just booked me into a work call 10 minutes after this date starts. Complete fuck-up. Time for a very awkward message... #datenightlive

[Date Night James @datenightjames]

We've come a long way but I'm still single, I'm still broke and I'm still all about the #deals. 241 cocktails it is. #datenightlive https://t.co/sG5G6wbXGM

[Date Night James @datenightjames]

When she says "I don't mind really, pick somewhere you like" and you're broke. #datenightlive

[Date Night James @datenightjames]

64 minutes till first date kickoff and I can't find any clean underwear. #datenightlive

[Date Night James @datenightjames]

Big money away tie tonight. Well not that big money: it's 2-for-1 cocktails. #datenightlive

[Date Night James @datenightjames]

Twice this year I have been dating someone who has moved abroad in the first two months. Im starting to think it might be me...

[Date Night James @datenightjames]

Fourth date. Yes. Fourth. Who'd have thunk it. Art gallery and dinner. Carslberg don't do fourth dates, but if they did... #datenightlive

[Date Night James @datenightjames]

She turned up thank god. I definitely ate too much and talked about my childhood traumas too much. #datenightlive

[Date Night James @datenightjames]

She's only three minutes late but have just had my first pang of "being stood up" fear.

[Date Night James @datenightjames]

In other news, city centre public transport is terrible preparation for these things. #sweaty #datenightlive

[Date Night James @datenightjames]

I come to this restaurant so much and they still won't give me a decent table. Come on, man. Help a brother out. #datenightlive

[Date Night James @datenightjames]

Incidentally, dinner is so much less of a challenge IMHO. Conversation more natural, plus I'm not distracted by hunger. #datenightlive

[Date Night James @datenightjames]

Not early enough for a pre-match pint. *sighs* guess we're going on dry! #datenightlive

[Date Night James @datenightjames]

Bottled the outfit three times before leaving the house. It's Liverpool in the cup final all over again. #datenightlive

[Date Night James @datenightjames]

Very nearly left a tag on the new trousers I'm wearing. That would have been a bad start... #datenightlive

[Date Night James @datenightjames]

@kethandawar I'll be ordering milk steak

[Date Night James @datenightjames]

When you have a date tonight and realise you've just put all your smartest shirts in the wash. #datenightlive
