Today, I went on a date at a restaurant with a guy. When he promised I wouldn't have to pay the bill, I didn't think he meant we'd be dining and dashing. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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
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 on a date with a guy. I lost interest in him quick, so I excused myself to go to the bathroom, hoping to make a run for the hills. As soon as I reached the front door, our server yells out, "I hope you’re not thinking about dining and dashing!" FML
Today, I was on a date with a guy I've been crushing on. In the middle of the dinner, he said he had to go get something from his car. When I asked what it was, he smiled and said it was a surprise. I waited for my surprise for half an hour. Then I decided to pay the bill and go home and cry. 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
Today, I was on a dinner date with a guy I really like. I guess I was on my phone too much because halfway through the date he sent me a text saying how much my half of the bill would be. FML
Today, my date refused to pay for my dinner, even though he promised to beforehand. It turns out, he assumed I would just be ordering a salad for dinner, "based on your slim figure". FML
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. 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, my date mugged me, just minutes after I paid our bill at the restaurant. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

He seems a bit cheap. I wouldn't be expecting any presents if you decide to go out with him.

So not only is he a cheepo but he got your face on the wanted list for the latest crimes. Smart idea!

At least he had the balls to dine and dash... Tried to be positive but couldn't think of anything positive about him. FYL. I suggest you dump him.

YDI for going on a date with a bum that has no respect for businesses or the people that work there.

I would break up with him if I were you. The waiters have to pay that money out of their paychecks

Like how u say y'all. I definitely read this in a country accent. This is not meant to be offensive btw
ohxdamnxkay02 12
its the thought that counts..right?

What if he owned the restaurant and he was a billionaire and he told all his dates that they wouldn't pay and pretend to dine and dash and see which of the women actually liked what he was not what he did? Sounds like a better story to me.

"Okay, 3 2 1 Run!" "wait what?"

Atleast the food was free.

He's a billionaire who wants to attract women who enjoy petty theft? Doesn't sound like a particularly well thought-out plan to me.

I'm from NY born & raised, we say y'all there too. Not just a country thing.

@79 unless he wants them to like him for being a tool i dont really see how that plan is going to work. @OP run. get out of there. go back the following day with the guys name, phone number and address and tell the boss of the restaurant exactly what happened. never speak to the douchebag again unless youre as worthless as he is.

ugh, i forgot one thing youre supposed to bring with you...the money for the bill...

They just comp the meal and plus that all restraunts always way over price there food so it's not like it really puts them behind or anything.

He didn't force you to fine and dash. If you feel so bad about it, you could have paid and went home without the date.
Ali_Br_fml 33
er I mean Dine & dash... swype doesn't always know what I want to say... But it's better than my ipod...

Omg I know what u mean...in an IM with my boyfriend, it changed "great" to "feet"...wtf?? LOL

4- I agree, she's just game for the rush as well!

Maybe the girl didn't bring any money because he promised to pay for the meal
Ali_Br_fml 33
True #28, but I always like to bring money with me just in case my date is horrible and I want to leave on my own terms... That would be enough for a cab/bus/train ride home, and my meal/event. That way he can't make me feel trapped in any way. The only good advice my evil almost-stepfather gave me was to carry vex money so I don't fall into a situation I don't need to be in. (yes he really was evil)

I prefer the term 'Chew and screw.'

If I went on a date and that happened...he sure as hell wouldnt be getting screwed by ME that night! **** cheapskates!
FarSide 23
Okay... I'll troll. Is what OP and her date did ANY different than taking out a girl, paying for both dinner and a movie... and then the girl NOT putting out, and leaving the poor undeserving guy with a case a blue balls? I think not.

Sounds like a fun guy!
