His girlfriend said to him that she would like to pay for half of lunch and he would pay for the other half.
When their bill came, he was surprised that she said she really did want to pay for the whole thing, and he allowed her to.
Their day together continued, and when it turned to evening, they decided to go get a few drinks before heading out to dinner.
They had a wonderful time at the bar, and they started chatting with other people and the bartenders that worked there.
“When we talked among ourselves we were discussing where to go after for dinner,” he said.
“After exploring mid-to-upscale options and deciding on a place, she turned and said to me “Dinner is on you,” then walked away to talk to the new bar-friends.”
“She was still talking to those friends when the bill came. 2 cocktails and 2 shots for $80. Yikes.”
He paid for their drinks and his girlfriend did see the bill before they left to go to dinner, so she knew how much it had cost them.
“When we got there and got settled, I asked, “You said dinner’s on me, is that still the case?”, which then evolved into an epic argument culminating in her comparing me to her ex and also saying that I was to blame for all of my many complex issues within my immediate family,” he continued.
“This argument eventually got to the point of name-calling, when she called me a cheap-a**…loudly and publicly in our hotel lobby.”
His intention was really to just understand who was going to be paying for their dinner in a calm way, though things clearly escalated in an insane manner.
