Date night dilemmas

A few weeks ago we asked you to join in our survery of your date night dilemmas and disasters. Here's the results!

Days before the curtains are set to close for the finale of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, people across the country were asked to complete a survey on the worst thing that could happen to them before a big date.

The survey, made up of 100 respondents in the Midlands, revealed that the biggest issue a couple could face before the night is losing the tickets. Other responses include turning up on the wrong night and finding someone sitting in your seat, sitting on a chair which collapses mid performance and forgetting your date’s name.

One survey respondent commented, “The worst thing that could happen while on a date with my boyfriend would be my husband turning up!” 

The full list of date night dilemmas and the percentage of respondents choosing them was:

·        You lose the tickets:  32%
·        Your partner talks all the way through the play: 14%
·        Your partner talks about their ex too much: 13%
·        You realise you know absolutely nothing about the play you've agreed to see: 10%
·        Losing your wallet/purse: 9%
·        You spill your drink everywhere: 5%
·        You can't find anything to wear: 5%
·        You turn up ridiculously late: 5%
·        Your phone doesn't stop ringing throughout the night: 5%
·        You get a spot on the big night: 2%

Thanks to everybody who took part in the survey!
