"We grabbed a blanket from the house, laid it out near the hot tub..."

In celebration of meeting new people and the whole kaleidoscope of human experience that can come out of that, we're instituting a new feature where Hooksexup readers can share the details of their latest date. It's like a post-date conversation with a friend. If you're interested in sharing your date with us, we'd love to hear about it.

ACT 1: "It was supposed to be more civilized than our first meeting."

So how'd you end up on this date? 
We met, oddly enough, at a pool party at a hotel in Manhattan. We ended up being the last to leave after having way too many whiskeys and playing too much pool volleyball. We left at two a.m., went to a random music studio where some girl was working on her dream, left to hit another bar on the way home and ended up at my place at five a.m. This date was a week later.

Tell us what you knew (or think you knew) about them before you met up. Did you Google them? (Admit it.) 
We had already hooked up, so I knew a lot. And I also knew that she was fun but not exactly my type.

What did you plan to do? Whose bright idea was it?
We had just planned to get one drink. It was supposed to be more civilized than our first meeting.

ACT 2: "It was a bit surreal."

So, what exactly did you end up doing? Take us through the sequence of events. Just the facts here. 
We started with a cocktail. Halfway through, she gets a text message and starts laughing. I prod her to tell me what happened. So she says that her friends somehow were at some random person's house in northern Jersey and that they had a pool, a hot tub, and lots of free booze. It sounded just crazy enough to be fun. I mentioned I had a car and was up for it. We jumped in my car, and took off for Jersey. When we got there, we immediately got in our suits and swam around the pool and hung out in the hot tub.

Tell us about your conversations on the date. Were they interesting? Flirtatious? Combative? 
They were fine. I was trying to be a good conversationalist, but I wasn't drawn in too deeply.

What surprised you most about your date? 
After a while, we started getting a bit frisky in the hot tub, so we grabbed a blanket from the house, laid it out behind some bushes near the hot tub, had loud sex and passed out. When we woke up, everyone was up and in the pool already, but that didn't stop us for round two. When we got dressed and walked out to the pool, her friends were rolling joints and drinking beers, and one was dancing topless by the pool. It was a bit surreal.

Be frank: did your date get more attractive as the night went on? 
Yup.

ACT 3: "I just knew it wasn't for me."

How'd it end? Polite hug? Taxi sex? Fistfight? 
I hung out, smoked some weed, drank some beer, sobered up, and drove home without her. I think she got a ride later.

Hypothetically, if you started dating this person, what might end up bothering you? 
I can't say I got to know her enough to answer that. I just knew it wasn't for me.

Would you go out again? And if so, what might you want to do? 
Nope. She called a few times and I awkwardly ignored the calls. Not my best moment.

Time for a little objectivity: how close do you think your date's version of this story would be to yours? And what might they differ on? 
I shudder to think.

Have a great dating story you want to share with us? Tell us all about it.
