Today, I went on my first date in 6 months, to a Thai restaurant. We both got food poisoning and spent the entire evening alternately running to the bathroom while pretending that we were fine. FML

I understood your problem OP and am really feeling very sad about it. But i couldn't understand what made you feel reluctant to inform the staff about some quick-confidential emergency help when your date was in bathroom, as you two were using bathroom alternatively.

It's sucks when you're thai'd down to the toilet with an upset stomach!

That's not food poisoning, that's the result of eating Thai food

OP, your nickname is cleverly put. Also, that's your chance to have a relaxed date with each other in sweatpants, with Netflix, ginger ale and crackers. Sounds like a fun time to me. Hope you guys get well quickly!

That's not food poisoning. Food born illness takes hours at minimum usually the next day to actually feel sick.

I suggest picking another location for your second date. That said: Now you both have at least a story to tell your children if all goes well. "I honestly don't know if it was love on first sight...migh've been the foid poisoning i had on our first date."

I'm so sorry that happened! But at least it wasn't just you or him. Or then it may be a little awkward.

I'm surprised nobody has said this yet. If you two liked each other enough to pretend to be completely fine through food poisoning there's probably real potential for a relationship. Plus, this gives you an excuse to call her the next day and ask how she's feeling!
