The dead art of the PUA
Today, I went on a blind date. She seemed really nervous, so I tried negging to loosen her up. She decked me. FML

A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Today, my friends set me up on a blind date. I thought it went well, and while saying our goodbyes, I leaned in to give her a kiss. She pulled way, laughed, "I'm not drunk enough for that," and left. FML

Today, I went on a blind date that my friends set up. Not only did my date visibly recoil at the sight of me, she ended up trying to convince me that we're actually cousins. When I told her how absurd that was, she muttered, "Fuck it" and left. FML

First date, first impressions
Today, my blind date thought the best way to start off is to show up blind drunk. She ended up puking on the table and leaving me to pay. FML

Don't be that guy
Today, I was set up on my first blind date since my divorce. My expectations were low, but when she showed up, she was a smoking hot. She was way out of my league, she was delightful and kind throughout the date, but my low confidence shined through. That night she acquired an expensive dinner and a stalker. Me. FML

Today, I went on a blind date and mistook someone else at the restaurant for my date. We had a great conversation… until the real blind date arrived. The look on both their faces was priceless. FML

Today, I went on a blind date. My date would respond to me by saying "retweet" and "favorite" when she thought something was relatable. FML

Today, I went on a blind double date with my friend. My date was actually blind. Not so bad, he seemed nice, until he told me I sound ugly and annoying. My friend laughed and agreed. FML

You didn't dodge the bullet on that one! Verbal abuse leading to domestic violence? You two need to go your separate ways.

It means to go negative. For some reason, there are those who think insults and put-downs are a good strategy for dating.

Back-handed compliments that are really put downs to lower the victim's self-esteem ... it's a form of sexual "grooming" and emotional manipulation to in an attempt to get the victim to try to gain approval from the attacker.

Negging is an act of emotional manipulation whereby a person makes a deliberate backhanded compliment or otherwise flirtatious remark to another person to undermine their confidence and increase their need of the manipulator's approval. The term was coined and prescribed by pickup artists. Wikipedia

Probably would have had more success with offering up pegging!

According to Urban Dictionary, it's undermining a woman's self-confidence so she'll be more vulnerable to advances.

I don't condone hitting people, but you certainly deserved a negative reaction. (A more appropriate response on her part would be telling you to GFY and walking out the door.) What the **** were you thinking? I sure hope this woman tells all of your mutual friends what an ass you are.
