Miscellaneous: So shite

So shite

Today, my date left the restaurant because I didn’t agree with his opinions about the mentally disabled or mixed race couples, etc. Basically, a real scumbag. He also left me the bill, and it turned out he had all the most expensive menu items, including a £120 bottle of wine. It cost over £300 total. FML

Today, I went on a date with a guy who seemed to be quite the gentleman. I was proven wrong when he told me to "shut it" during dinner, stiffed me on the bill, and then left me at the restaurant so he could get his own taxi home. FML

Tonight on First Dates

Today, I went on a date that went well, until the bill came and she quickly shoved it in my direction, then went to the loo. Rude, but I thought nothing of it… until our waiter took pity and told me I’m the fourth guy she’s had this week who'd been made to pay for her. I paid half, then went home. FML

Today, I went on a date. After we finished our meal, I had to use the bathroom really bad. When I said so, my date totally lost it and accused me of planning on climbing out a window and ditching her. "Fuck that and fuck you!" she said, then stormed out, leaving me with the bill. FML

Today, I went on a date, the first one I've been on since my last boyfriend broke up with me 6 months ago. We were at a restaurant, and at the end of meal he insisted on paying the bill. He wanted to leave a 15% tip but couldn't work out in his head how much to leave. The bill was for £100. FML

Today, my date unexpectedly brought her friend to dinner with us. They seemed bored of me after ten minutes and left me out of their conversation for the rest of the night. Oh, and they made me pay for both of them. FML

Today, I went on a dinner date with the guy I like. He ate all his food then started eating off my plate, going on to eat over half of my food. When the bill came, he made me pay for it. FML

Today, I was out on a dinner date when suddenly a girl walks up to us and says to my date, "Girl, you can do so much better." Hearing this, my date looks at me, nods, gets up and walks off. I still had to pay for everything. FML

Today, I went to a restaurant with my boyfriend. After dessert, he went to the bathroom so I quickly called the waiter over and paid the bill, thinking it was a nice gesture. When he returned, he broke up with me for "emasculating" him. FML

Today, I was on a first date. When the bill came, he refused to pay for my $6 salad. I had to go ATM-hunting to pay for my $6 salad. FML

Where did they say they expected him to pay for the whole thing? You're kind of putting words in their mouth there.

Sounds like you were setup. Did he originate the questionable topics?

“He also left me with the bill” that’s pretty self explanatory. She was expecting him to pay for her meal Even when they weren’t a good match.

....??? It literally isn't??? He left them to pay the whole bill, it doesn't mean, "Oh no, I can't believe he didn't pay for the whole thing." They're lamenting that they were left to pay for the whole thing. He made the choice to get really expensive things and then bail. Even if it's a shitty date, that's a dick move, and that's what the OP was complaining about.

They should have split, not that he was obligated but neither was she

you're obligated to pay your half unless the other person offers to cover you. so yes he was obligated

unless the other person offers to pay for you yes you are obligated to pay for yourself. he was most definitely obligated to pay at least half.

too bad that's not how the world works. if he leaves you can't just tell the restaurant you'll only pay half since the man who was here is a meanie....
