A woman has sparked a heated debate over who should pay on a first date after her “polite” rejection led to a cruel message from the man.
The couple went out to dinner and the man decided to check in after getting home.
He wrote: ‘Hey, I had a great evening tonight. “I would love to do it again sometime.”
Her date later revealed she wasn’t interested, saying, “I had a great time tonight, but I’m not sure if we’re a great couple.” You’re a great guy, but be careful.
The simple message caused the man distress and he took out his anger on the woman.
‘Are you serious? You didn’t seem to feel that way when you ordered dessert, did you? And then let me pay the check! Classic spacious. So how many guys do you have paying for your food this week? Cake eating mf.’
Hundreds of people on Reddit took the man’s side, alleging that the woman took advantage of dating conventions to get a free meal.
‘I can’t even be angry. “If you know the date isn’t going to get you anywhere, show some class and don’t keep running up the bill,” said one.
A woman has sparked a heated debate over who should pay for a first date after her ‘polite’ rejection led to a cruel message from the man.
One married woman wrote: “I definitely think that if you don’t feel like going on a second date, you should pay for your own share of the meal.” But it’s just me!’
“Yeah, staying and ordering dessert when you know you don’t like it, the guy’s kind of shit,” one man said.
“If you know you’re not sorry, show an ounce of decency and offer to break up before you break up,” another added.
I’m a woman and I get annoyed by girls who order dessert and let the men pay. Surely, by dessert time, you’re self-aware enough to know that you don’t like the guy and that you don’t need to spend any more money. I would have skipped dessert and split the bill. Disgusting,’ one woman wrote.
But many criticized the man for his immature behavior.
“The language he’s using is red flag city,” one said. “I bet he thinks women owe him sex after he pays for the third meal.”
‘That’s why some of us are just ghosts. “The risk of someone being a psychopath is too high because there is no connection,” said another.
“Paying for dessert doesn’t entitle you to anything,” one woman wrote.
‘Why does every man’s reaction to any type of rejection take a complete 180 degree turn? Why didn’t they try to start a conversation to ask why? “She said I’m not sure buddy, that’s a clear indicator that the door hadn’t closed yet,” another noted.
