'While a merely disappointing or "bad" date isn't grounds for a lawsuit, there are situations where legal action could be possible,' attorney Mary Cannon shared with DailyMail.com.
Sadly, while you can't sue someone on the grounds of having a bad time, Mary said there are certain situations that you can hit them with the weight of the law (stock image).
'If your date spreads false and damaging statements about you after your date, it could give rise to a defamation claim,' Mary pointed out.
'Basically, while most bad dates don't lead to legal action, there are a few clear instances where someone's behavior could have serious legal consent,' Mary explained.
'If your date's negligence or otherwise reckless behavior results in harm, such as a date that ends in injury from driving while intoxicated, he or she could be held liable for your damages from the crash,' she said.
