When it comes to dating, perhaps no other city in the world is as full of horror stories as the Big Apple—just ask the gals of Sex and the City. Trust us, we've been on our fair share of them, and there's nothing we like more than a morning goss-fest with our coworkers dishing the details on last night's fail. And, we know you want to get in on the interoffice chatter (and yes, we'd like some solidarity here), which is why we're running our very first NYC Dating Horror Stories feature starring—you guessed it—our readers. We want to hear the crazy, the ridiculous, the vomit-inducing...every salacious (or lack thereof) moment from your odyssey of awful. And thennnnn....we're going to run our top picks as a slideshow story, illustrated by none other than our favorite hot sketch artist, The Blake Wright. C'mon, you know you want your nightmare immortalized in drawing and print forever, especially if it messes up his (or her) google-ability.
To enter, email us at submissions@refinery29.com with a 200-word or less*, clear and concise description of your NYC dating horror story. Please include your first name (you can change for anonymity) and neighborhood.
