After their first date didn’t work out, a woman blocked a man because she felt he had crossed boundaries and tested her finances. She asked the Reddit community to validate her actions by sharing her story there.
Many women have posted their terrifying first-date experiences online, but this woman’s encounter stands out in particular. She chose an expensive place to eat at with the man. She barred him and wouldn’t give him another chance after he paid the whole amount.
She hadn’t really thought about where they would dine when the man first asked her out on a date. But when he asked which restaurant was her favorite, she frank mentioned a fancy one. She pointed out that the restaurant was expensive and recommended that they go somewhere more laid back, like a great-looking Mexican restaurant that would cost less. The average check at her favorite restaurant comes to about $500.
The man was keen to test the dish and insisted on eating at her favorite restaurant despite the exorbitant cost. The woman thought it unnecessary for a first date, even though she typically saved this meal for special occasions. A lavish dinner was not as interesting to her as finding more about his character and beliefs.
They ordered beverages, appetizers, main entrees, and even dessert while out on the date. Everything looked to be going well as the discussion flowed. She said she was concerned because he had insisted on going to the pricey restaurant after looking over the menu when the bill came and offered to divide it.
On initial dates, she usually requested separate checks since she thought a man might not want to pay for a meal if he wasn’t into her. When the waiter arrived to take their cards, the man took hers and promised to pay for both checks even though they had both put their cards on the table. Then he said, “Oh, now that I finally know your last name,” after taking a glance at her card.
She felt awkward after hearing this remark. She works as a bartender and has witnessed colleagues quickly recall card information, which could result in fraud. She felt her privacy had been invaded and didn’t appreciate him staring at her card.
She was also irritated that he had decided without splitting the bill. She felt as though he was attempting to determine whether or not she was a “golddigger,” and she surmised that he was testing her to see if she would pay half of the $250 total. She was offended by this, particularly because she had informed him right away that their first date didn’t have to take place at such an upscale establishment.
She thanked him after dinner, went home, and blocked him right away. She had not wanted to give her last name, so the fact that he had looked at her card without asking her permission was the last straw.
She got a range of responses when she shared her tale on Reddit. Several users agreed with her that the man made her feel uncomfortable and violated her privacy, and they wholeheartedly supported her decision to block him. Some, meanwhile, believed she might be overanalyzing the circumstances.
She handed the man money for her share of the bill in reaction to the criticism, stressing that she hadn’t forced him to eat at the pricey restaurant and that she would have been content with a straightforward Mexican meal. She thought back on the encounter and took away a useful lesson for further dates.
