Today, I took a girl to a sushi restaurant for our first date. She insisted she's had sushi before, but I had to watch her struggle with the chopsticks for a few minutes before mercifully asking the waitress for a fork. She then ate a fork full of wasabi, thinking it was guacamole. I think there won't be a second date. FML

Maybe she was too shy to say that she hadn't? Some girls don't want to disappoint guys sometimes, so maybe she said yes because she knew you liked sushi?

At least she didn't mistake the wasabi for pistachio ice cream :P

If you can't use chopsticks, eat sushi like a finger food.

As ridiculous as that as not being a frequent sushi eater isn't a reason to not date someone. Unless you're a REALLY big sushi guy and you always take girls to get sushi to find out if they're your kinda gal

I think it was the lying that made op not want a second date not the not eating sushi.

Maybe she didn't lie. Wasabe might be something she didn't have any other time she had sushi, and lots of people can't use chopsticks. Thinking it was guac is a silly mistake even if you've never had sushi though.

I eat my sushi with a fork. I hate using chopsticks.

That's kinda a messed up reason not to take her out on a second date. My being someone who doesn't eat sushi I could see myself doing this if I'm taking a girl out on a date and she really wants to have sushi.

Maybe it's because she lied that made the guy uncomfortable. Or that she was absolutely, completely, uneducated about it, after she insisted she'd had it before. Maybe he's being a bit extreme but I can see where this would be a turn off.

You won't date a person because they can't use chopsticks and isn't familar with wasabi? That seems really bizare.

Right?! What a fickle, shallow excuse!

Well you aren't supposed to use chopsticks with sushi but that's neither here nor there

It's perfectly acceptable. I do it all the time.
