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
