A lot of women have terrifying stories about their first dates, most of which are shared online. A woman and a man went to a fancy restaurant of her choice, where the woman had an amazing experience. She barred him and would not give him another chance after he paid their whole cost. The woman did not have any idea where they would have dinner when the man originally asked her out on a date. But she was honest enough to mention a fancy restaurant when he inquired what her favorite was. She made it apparent that they could eat in a more casual setting and that the restaurant’s offerings were somewhat expensive. She recommended a better-value Mexican eatery with excellent meals. Her preferred restaurant, meanwhile, would have set them around $500 on average.
The man really wanted to test the dish, so even with the price range, he decided to eat at the woman’s favorite restaurant. The woman frequently went on more informal dates. She would reserve her spot at her favorite restaurant for celebratory meals, special occasions, or self-indulgent moments. Since she is more interested in getting to know the man and learning about his background than she is in filling her stomach, she discovers that going to the restaurant is not really important for their first date. On the evening of the date, the couple placed orders for cocktails, appetizers, and main courses. They ordered dessert after having a nice chat. When the bill arrived, they both volunteered to divide it because the woman knew it would be pricey. Says she:
During initial dates, the woman would typically request separate checks, assuming the male might be hesitant to pay for the dinner of a lady he was not interested in. The woman and the man both put their cards on the table when the individual bills arrived. The man took her card and offered to pay for both checks when the waiter arrived to collect theirs. Then he said, “Oh, now that I finally know your last name,” after taking a glance at her card.
The woman’s mind went to something else as he was saying this. She works as a bartender and handles cards and transactions on the job. She also has a coworker who can memorize numbers fast. Such might result in fraud or a crime.
The man changed his mind and decided to pay for both checks, which irritated her as well. She had a sneaking suspicion that he was manipulating her, probably to get her to split the $250 tab. “Despite the fact that I had explicitly warned him we should not go there on our first date, I had the impression he was seeing whether I was a gold-digger or something,” she remarked. After supper she thanked him, left for home, and blocked him.
The woman claimed that he had irritated her by staring at her card, especially since she had refused to give him her last name.
