He Got Accused Of Making His Friend Look Bad Because He Paid On Their Double Date, But His Friend Didn’t

This 18-year-old guy has a 19-year-old roommate named David, who also is a good friend of his. For several weeks now, David has been chasing after this 19-year-old girl named Mia, but Mia hasn’t really been interested.
Although David has repeatedly asked Mia out on a date, she replied back with several reasons why she couldn’t go.
Last weekend, Mia finally told David that she wasn’t able to go on a date with him because her 19-year-old friend Brooke was coming from a different college to visit her.
“So then David offered that he could bring a friend, that would be me, for her, and Mia finally said yes,” he explained.
“Mia knows me from some classes we have together, and I think she is a really nice person. I was really nervous about going because I have never been on a real date with a woman, and I knew Brooke was going to be totally out of my league, but I had the hope that going with David would make me look better by association.”
As his mom says, David is quite “handsome” and very popular with the ladies. David has also hooked up with quite a few different girls who go to college with them, and he honestly lost track of how many exactly.
Now, David is really interested in Mia because she’s on the basketball team at their college and close to his height.
So, the evening of his double date with David arrived, and as soon as he got to meet Brooke, he could instantly tell she had no interest in him.
Brooke spent the entire night on her phone and ignored him completely.

“I tried to talk to her following the tips David gave me, but she barely responded and was mostly just looking at her phone,” he said.
“I just knew she was disappointed because of how unattractive I am compared to David and how clearly she was getting the short end of the stick on this date compared to Mia.”
“When the bill came, I paid for Brooke’s part and mine. David only paid for his, and Mia made a weird face when she realized but didn’t say anything about it.”
After the bill was paid, he and David walked the girls back to Mia’s dorm room. When they finally headed back alone to their own room, David became angry with him.
David then accused him of making him look bad for paying for Brooke. David also stated that he was just trying to show off the fact that he has more money than David does, but that wasn’t what he was trying to do at all.
David then mentioned he was dating way too many girls at once to be able to afford to pay for their meals, so he had to get the girls to pay for themselves.
“As I said, I don’t have any dating experience, and I believed the man paying was the usual thing to do,” he continued.
“I feel really bad for hurting his chances with Mia knowing how important it was for him, and I have apologized profusely multiple times, but he is still irritated because of all this.”
He’s left wondering if it was mean of him to pay for Brooke when David didn’t want to pay for Mia.
