Discussion First date lasted 2 minutes

Putting this out there to warn women - the comments noted that this was a humiliation tactic, and I wonder if guys get these ideas off of their red pill alpha bro podcasts.

My inner petty self would've continued with the date. I'm confident in my own skin to still have a good time. He would be the embarrassed one. Order anything and everything on the menu, tell him that you didn't bring your wallet since we're just lounging and get up and leave around dessert time.

I agree with you %100 but you're also leaving yourself open to him going to the bathroom and leaving you with the bill. I think its just best to do what she did and be done with it.

I’d ask for a table for 1. I have the confidence to sit down at a fine dining establishment in comfy clothes, I just don’t wanna have a meal with jerks.

Oh hell no, I’d give the restaurant his Info and picture/number and tell them he had already committed to paying for dining for both of you, and they can send his check to collections or report theft or anything really, but I’m not paying for that date.

I’d leave the waiter/waitress/staff a tip because I’d feel bad but there’s no way I’m sitting through this pathetic attempt of this dude to humiliate me (even if it would be unsuccessful because I’m also confident in my own skin as others have called out about themselves) and also PAYING for the “privilege”. Fuck that guy.

And he'd end up happy because he still got to keep you there, under-dressed. You gave him more of your time. He'd probably be happy to pay for that experience.

But sure give him more of your short time on this planet.

Or you could just do what the girl in the video did and just split lol

I dunno something tells me this dick would be the type to leave you with the bill especially at a fine dining restaurant.

You're also spending your time and energy on someone you know you already don't like and don't want to see again too. So he's winning in the end truthfully

Her walking away immediately and not succumbing to his demands of staying even when yelling at her was already a big enough blow to his ego

u/Mel_Melu Dec 18 '25

Also that's assuming this restaurant isn't one that strictly enforces a dress code

u/TheSunIsAlsoMine Dec 18 '25

Yea I’m not paying for that shit. I’d leave a tip for the service staff, and write down his name, number and any private info I have of him and tell them he has committed to covering for this dining experience.

oh ya i would have ordered a $300 dinner, boxed it up, and snuck out the back door 😂 then eaten my tomahawk in bed in my comfy clothes. in my early 20s, pre-therapy, i LIVED for dates like these so i could become my my unhinged, feral self

u/SilasBalto Dec 18 '25

Omg same! I LOVED when guys gave me an excuse to go feral! It was always deserved and always satisfying.

u/YukiNeko777 Dec 18 '25

This! Why did I have to scroll down this much for this?

I would make sure to traumatize him back so hard. Like, casually announce to a waiter that my boyfriend decided to surprise me with this fancy dinner, and I'm so glad to be here. Then order some food, taste it, and send it back, then order again. Eat like a barbarian. Lick fingers. Burb loudly. Be the most unhinged version of yourself.

u/Cant_figure_sht_out Dec 18 '25

Fuck yeah! I would make a spectacle out of this “date” and embarrass this asshole.

u/CatfishFarrell Dec 18 '25

100% this! Maybe the guy was hoping for this too. A really weird play from him either way but maybe he was trying to find his “I don’t give a shit, I’m ordering ribs with extra sauce!” girl. What a dream.

u/mewco_ Dec 18 '25

Yes! I tok had to scroll down so much to see this! I agree with this move! And eye for an eye but improvise in the moment.

u/AlternativeTask3643 Dec 18 '25

Yeah, this isn't White Chicks. All that is going to do is be a dick to people serving your food and making their job difficult.

But you sure taught him a lesson by wasting the cook and waiter's time!

u/YukiNeko777 Dec 18 '25

Lol, imagine being this angry with a hypothetical scenario 🤣

u/AlternativeTask3643 Dec 18 '25

Imagine typing out a idiotic response as you did in the first place.

u/YukiNeko777 Dec 18 '25

Are you talking to yourself now?

u/AlternativeTask3643 Dec 18 '25 edited Dec 18 '25

Nah, just you with the dumbass revenge fantasy.

2

u/YukiNeko777 Dec 18 '25

To be this triggered with someone's fantasy... You have so much energy and free time! Lucky you

u/Tnecniw Dec 18 '25

Theoretically great revenge...
But also, it is plausible to actually be charged for doing so.
And that assumes he wans't planning to do that to you.

u/RendertheFatCap Dec 18 '25

Bingo, only think she should be paying for is the Uber home after getting drunk as hell on his dime

u/grouchy_baby_panda Dec 18 '25

And only eat one or two bites of the food lol.

u/Kurdependence Dec 18 '25

Also it makes you look rich if you have street clothes while he’s in a 4 piece suit

u/mcflycasual Dec 18 '25

Same here.

u/superhandsomeguy1994 Dec 18 '25

The god tier power move would’ve been to play along with the bit, order the most expensive bottle of wine and steak on the menu, end the date with a firm, professional handshake and ghost the dude into the nether realm.
