I was 17 when I asked Sarah out on a date. I was so nervous, I barely ate all day. We went to a nice restaurant, and I wanted to impress her. So, when the waiter came, I said, I’ll have what the chef recommends. Turns out, the chef recommended something spicy. Very spicy. Halfway through dinner, my face turned red, I started sweating, and my eyes watered. Sarah just stared at me, probably wondering if I was about to pass out. I tried to act cool, but let’s be honest I looked like I was dying. She laughed and said, Next time, maybe stick to the menu. There was no second date.
