Default car dies after start up from sitting 30 mins after long trip?

I drove 20 minutes tonight - started it up and let it sit for a minute like I always do, then drove it - drove perfectly fine. Got out and talked with someone for 30-45 minutes and started it up. Started up fine again, but once I started going forward and started braking, it wouldn't idle and just died. I started it up again ... had some trouble but finally idled. I crept forward a bit and put on the brakes ... died again! This happened a few times and has happened to me in the past too. After those initial problems, I would drive it and it wouldn't have any problems at all. Driving the whole time from cold until shutting it down it would drive fine too ... is this a tuning issue?
