You meet someone, have a few drinks, and then decide to take it to the next level — at least for one night. But sometimes what you imagine to be a quick no-strings fling can turn into a horror show when you least expect it.
We took to Reddit to find some stories of real people and their absolute worst one night stands, which may make you think twice before going home with that stranger.
"Police show up to his apartment and take him away in handcuffs"
"I had a pretty normal one night stand, the guy was nice and the sex was decent. Then at around seven in the morning police show up to his apartment and take him away in handcuffs.
"He tells me to call the number on a card and tell his lawyer ‘John has been arrested meet him at the station.' I stay and talk to the police, and every question they ask I answer with ‘I literally just met him last night.' It turns out it was for fraud related to his job. I thought I may have dodged a serial killer or something." - Anonymous redditor
"My wife checks my phone"
"We met at a bar and didn't talk much before he suggested we go back to my place.
"We did the deed, and afterward, while we were cleaning up and getting dressed, I said to him ‘That was amazing, we should do this again.’ to which he replied, ‘absolutely, let me give you my email address. I don't text because my wife checks my phone.'" - Redditor loki8481
"Why are there pictures of other girls on your phone?"
"I had an OkCupid hookup with a girl that said she worked in her father's auto garage. Everything went fine and she wound up spending the night. I woke up the next morning and she had snuck out.
"I had a text that said 'why are there pictures of other girls on your phone?' Of course, these were pictures of myself and friends, some of which were girls, at bars and concerts and nothing particularly sexy. I thought to myself, thank god she ditched, I certainly don't want to hang out with a girl that will go through my phone while I'm asleep on the first date, or ever. Later that day my car won't start, my mechanic said somebody had cut several wires for the ignition system." - Redditor Orphanleni
"I had either a blacked-out moment or was sleepwalking"
"I went home with a girl, fooled around awhile, then we fell asleep. I woke up in the middle of the night to her yelling, 'WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!?!' Apparently, I had either a blacked-out moment or was sleepwalking.
"Either way, I was peeing like a racehorse on her bedroom floor. I promptly pinched it off, ran to the bathroom, and finished my business before going back in to help her clean up the mess, totally speechless. The next morning her alarm went off and she said, 'I am going to take a shower and go to work. You should get ready too.' I put on my clothes and left before she got out of the shower and haven't talked to her since." - Redditor mdgrosseries
"I came home with the girl"
"Went home with a girl. Went to the bathroom naked during the night. Couldn't remember what door I was in. Saw the bathroom light was on and peeked my head in and it was her dad. I ran down the stairs to hear this 'what the f--- are you doing?' I couldn't remember her name and just responded with, 'I came home with the girl.' He must of only had one daughter and directed me to her room.
"The next morning when she was about to drop me home, she introduced me to her parents. Her dad said 'I know who he f------ is, I caught him walking around our house at 4 a.m.'” - Redditor baggyizzle
“That’s not Paul”
"I woke up naked in my friend's apartment next to some naked guy I didn't know after a night of hard drinking. I got up, got dressed and stumbled into the hall to go to the bathroom.
"I ran into my friend who said, 'you slept with my friend Paul last night.' I said, 'ohhh...yeah. ok, well, he's still in there.' My friend said, 'That's not Paul.'" - Redditor wegoodright
"He left in the morning and blocked me on all social media"
"I hooked up with a professional baseball player. He drove two and a half hours to my college and spent the night in my apartment. We got drunk and had sex.
"Afterwards, I ended up crying and told him how messed up I was that my mom had died a month before and this was the first time hooking up with somebody I didn't know. He left in the morning and blocked me on all social media. I still don't know why I did that, but I'll chop it up to bad decisions and grief." - Redditor trinidadleandra
"I had a very unsympathetic police officer"
"A lot of money was missing from my wallet, her phone number was fake, I had no idea what her last name was or where she lived, and when I spoke to the police I had a very unsympathetic police officer who made it clear she didn't approve of my bringing home a girl I just met at the bus station. Not my proudest moment." - Redditor pm_your_lifehistory
"So you won't be my girlfriend?"
"Chatted with a guy online, we met up in real life, both of us were up for some fun and went back to his house. We had a lot of fun and it was a really good time.
"As I'm getting dressed to leave, he starts talking about how we should see a movie the next weekend and I said 'no thanks.' He got really emotional and said 'So you won't be my girlfriend?' I reminded him that I told him I was just looking for one night of fun. He said he thought I would change my mind once we had sex and started telling how great of a boyfriend he would be and how happy he could make me.
"All I could think to do was say 'I gotta go' and walk out. He sent me messages for a few months until I guess he got the hint." - Redditor tattedupgirl
"There was never a hint that he was in a relationship"
"I met an educated, friendly and interesting guy at a bar. I wasn't necessarily into him as more than friends, but we ended up hanging out at my place and having sex twice. There was never a hint that he was in a relationship. The sex was phenomenal, so I was excited to text him in a few days.
"That was until my friend found him on Facebook via his phone number with photos of him and the same girl going back years. I was ready to cut my losses and move on. Then we found her Facebook with a wedding planning cover photo. That sinking feeling led to googling for their wedding site. He's getting married next weekend." - Redditor klnjkhjklg
"She leaned into my ear and whispered seductively"
"The first clue that things would go badly was when she was straddling me on the couch and went to take my shirt off. I guess I did something that she interpreted as reluctance because she leaned into my ear and whispered seductively, 'Don't worry, I'm fat too.'
"I hadn't realized that either of us was fat before that." - Redditor DukeMaximum
"She starts to stir, then has a full-on seizure right on my bed"
"Went home with a random girl, did our thing, went to sleep like normal. I woke up at 7 a.m. and tried to get her up. She starts to stir, then has a full-on seizure right on my bed.
"She was out of it for a good while afterwards, but, luckily, my coworker gets seizures, so I knew what to do. Unfortunately, since I knew nothing about her medical history, I had to call her mom to see if she'd ever had a seizure before. Turns out she hadn't, so I had to take her to the local hospital where I had to explain, in front of her parents and her sister, that, no, I'm not her boyfriend, no, she couldn't dress herself, etc." - Redditor beancounter2885
"The whole bed is covered in blood"
"During sex, he accidentally knocks down a picture frame hanging over the bed. The frame breaks when it hits his head, and hangs around his neck. It's just cheap plastic, and he doesn't seem hurt, so we just laugh it off, clean up, and get back to what we were doing ... I keep getting distracted by how weird he felt — like he was sweating marmalade.
"I ask if he will let me reach out and switch the light on to see what the hell this sticky thing is, so he moves, and I do. The whole bed is covered in blood. My hair is caked in blood. His torso is bright red. Apparently, a shard cut a vein in his neck that my face has been rubbing against. He looks at me and screams, runs to the toilet, and proceeds to throw up. Everything looks like a horror show, including me." - Redditor Viimuur
