Today, I agreed to go on a date with the creepy guy from my Economics class because I'm so broke that I could really use the free meal. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, just like the past 2 weeks, I'm so broke that I only got to eat dinner because I went on a first date with a guy from Tinder. FML
Today, a guy invited me to a first date at a new restaurant. I was going to pay my way, but when he saw how steep the bill was, he insisted that I pay for his meal too, to prove I'm a "real feminist". FML
Today, I went on a date. I took her out to an expensive steak house. When she was done eating, she got up, said she was married, and told me she only accepted the date because I'd be paying for it. FML
Today, I went on a date with a guy that I have been crushing on for 2 years. At the end of the date he tells me that he is moving away and as his going away present, I could pay for dinner. 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 went out on a first date. He insisted we go to McDonald's and split a Happy Meal because he "didn't want to waste any money on a first date." FML
Today, a first date with a guy went so badly that he actually paid me to never call him again. FML
Today, I went to the movies with my crush, who had asked me out on a date. Assuming he'd pay, I left my money at home. When the time came to buy the tickets, he only bought one for himself. FML
Today, I went on an a date with a guy I met online. We were waiting in line at Starbucks when he turned to me and said, "Do you want anything?" Just before I was about to answer, he practically shoved in front of me and paid for himself. The cashier looked more horrified than I did. FML
Today, a cute guy I recognized from one of my classes messaged me on a dating site. He wanted help with homework. FML

That's funny, I was on a date with the girl from my English class who usually rejects me but finally said yes. Wait a second...

Just know this isn't applied to you, #49! Your girl is from your English class; OP's 'creep' is in Economics!

One date won't kill you

Free meal or not it still isn't fair to the creepy guy because you're using him.

Just use him and lead him on. I'm sure nothing bad will come of it. I suppose a full stomach will sooth your conscience. Maybe you should study morals and ethics.

Your mean, using this guy! I hope karma bites you in the ass!

I wonder if you have learned from your class that in every date the guy has to pay for everything, what if he's broken just like you or if he just have money for his meal? I feel sorry for the poor guy, thinking he has a date and all...

Since you're from Brazil I won't grind your grammar/spelling, but in my opinion, the guy should at least OFFER to pay for the first meal. I'd probably split it, myself, if he was willing to pay, but if some guy walks in EXPECTING me to pay? You can say goodbye to a second date; it's not exactly setting a good precursor to how things will work.

The problem here, #74 were her true intentions, not the money at all. Plus if I ask someone out, I would gladly pay for her, as long as the bill is not that much expensive. Plus, most of girls from here that I've dated liked to go out and pay for their stuff, I'm not sure how things around your place though. Please, DO mind my English, I'm learning it, and I need to know if there are any mistakes in my spelling so I can correct myself for the next time!

That is a very fair point, 109; I wasn't keeping OP's situation in mind when I made that comment. I mean, I live in southern US, so like I said in an earlier comment, it's pretty much considered standard the asker at least offer to pay for the one they asked (around here at least; but I'm also in small town USA where you're SOL if you're not a white anglo saxon... Huh, maybe I should adjust my cultural expectations... >.>) And my apologizes if my comment seemed a slam at you; I'm just getting miffed at these reverse-sexist-whiners going 'well he shouldn't have to even offer to pay'; when for me, it's not the point of the guy paying, it's the symbolism attached to it.
