Suggestion - don't talk about any physical woes, no matter how "promising" things look.

I remember a Date from Hell. I met this critter through match.com back in its early days. I had had reservations from the start, but agreed to meet her in a public place because I just didn't trust the situation/her. We met at a Steak 'n Shake for lunch.

That critter ran her mouth from beginning to end about every disease known to man that she had had or continued to have; explained how she was orphaned at the age of 6 and sold into slavery, on and on and on and on.

She actually called me and wondered when we'd connect again. I told her it just wasn't in the cards.

Indeed.  I would add to not speak of any past relationships either.  Especially the really bad ones.  I had a similar experience, but it was a blind date.  This man couldn't shut up about every girl that did him wrong.  GEEZ.  I ended up telling him this wasn't going to work as a date, and then we shared war stories.  He ended up being a pretty good friend.  HA!
R.I.P. LC and Crockspot.  Miss you guys.

Chase her.
Chase her even when she's yours.
That's the only way you'll be assured to never lose her.

Oh god I would never do that!!!He has met my mother and she is only 5 ft. He would narrow it down to genetics. Nobody likes woe is me convos, or ex's convos either.

I had a couple of semi-blind dates .... all I heard about were the ex wives and all their issues.  ::) I was really glad I had driven myself to the dates. Made it so much easier to leave!

As a general rule, I don't discuss exes until after the first couple dates or so.  Once you have become more acquainted with one another, it's fine to bitch & compare notes.

Exactly...but never on the first meeting.

Eupher, what you describe sounds like something we'd find at the DUmp. 

I had a blind date with a guy long time ago, and he told me, over dinner, a long involved story about how he couldn't find a bathroom once, and he had to take a dump real bad.
