After A Date, She Thought The Guy Stole Her Debit Card And Ghosted Her
First dates are always awkward. Especially if you met online and haven’t ever seen the person in real life, getting to know a complete stranger can have its highs and lows.
But what if the lows get so bad that you find out the person who you went out with actually stole from you?
While probably not very common, this is, unfortunately, what happened to TikToker Lindsey Wedgeworth @lindseyxworth on a recent first date.
The hard thing for Lindsey in this particular situation is that her date seemed to be wonderful at first. Before the truth unraveled, she really thought that she had found a great guy.
“The date itself actually went really well,” she explained. “He was really attractive, really funny, has a good job, makes good money, lives close by–like basically checked and ticked off all of my boxes.”
For their date, they decided to go bar hopping, she said. It’s important to note that he paid for all of her drinks that night, as that argument comes into play later on.
While on the date, Lindsey felt a great connection with this guy and was able to comfortably be herself. She explained how she didn’t have to try too hard on the date.
Things left off on a great note for them after the date. And then the next morning rolled around, and the antics ensued.

“Then the next morning, he texted me and was like, ‘hey, do you happen to remember where I put my wallet?'” she said– confused, as she had no idea why he’d ask her. “I’ll be…damned if some guy thinks I stole his wallet on the first date.”
Little did she know that the reverse was actually what happened that night.
“He finds his wallet, which is great, but then he texts me, and he’s like, ‘hey, actually, like, your debit card is in my wallet,”,” she explains. “Which doesn’t make any..sense because I didn’t pay for anything that entire night, so why would my debit card be out?”
She didn’t think much of it past that confusion because they were going to meet up again for a date, so she could easily just get it back from him then.
Although this was her initial plan, it turned out that over the weekend, he didn’t reach out much, and they never made any definite plans to meet up, and she began to get a little suspicious.
“We’re again texting, nothing’s really happening from it, so I initiate plans,” Lindsey said. When he says no, she again thinks, “that’s kind of weird; why is he not trying to initiate plans with me? He has my debit card!”
As she was talking, she captioned the screen, saying that “he never offered to bring it to me or asked me if I needed it or anything.”
She began to get really suspicious of his behavior, to say the least. But it gets even worse from here because he reaches out to her the next day to see how she is. When she reciprocates, he never answers–ever.
“Now I’m super annoyed, super confused, and super just like, what the f***?!” she said. “So I check my bank account just for fun…there’s a charge.”
So not only did this man ghost her, but he also actually stole her debit card instead of returning it to her.
“He literally used my debit card at a club downtown,” she said, laughing sarcastically. “So I canceled the card and reported it stolen.”
But it turns out that the entire incident was a mistake.
Lindsey confronted him on the issue over text to tell him that she canceled her card, and he had no idea what she was talking about.
“He basically was saying, like this was a huge mistake, like total misunderstanding, he would Venmo me for however much he spent like he had no idea,” she said in a follow-up video. “We have the same debit card.”
It was apparently just a simple mixup, where he picked her card out of his wallet instead of his since they look the same, but one thing is for sure: always double-check your wallet before you leave.
