“But I said dressing isn’t outside food, and they didn’t have what I needed to enjoy my meal,” she explained. Yikes!
Still, she did not want to ruin the whole evening, so she wound up bringing the ranch out to her car before going back to sit down at the table. Afterward, they finished dinner and headed out.
At the end of the night, Michael then thanked her for going out on the third date. But, he also admitted how it was seriously offputting that she needed to leave and purchase a bottle of dressing instead of just enjoying one meal without it.
She didn’t understand his point, though, and pointed out how she would not have had to leave if the restaurant had some ranch or any other dressings “like a normal restaurant.” Once she said that Michael did not even walk her back to her care. Instead, he just left, and she went home to fill her roommate in on the whole date.
After she told her roommate about everything that happened, though, her roommate actually just asked if she was being serious. Then, her roommate proceeded to call her out for having bad etiquette and embarrassing Michael to the point that he would probably stop talking to her.
“I don’t think what I did was really all that bad,” she vented. “It was a condiment, not an entire meal from someplace.”
Nonetheless, ever since that conversation with her roommate, she’s been left wondering whether leaving a date to buy the ranch dressing for her dinner was a really rude thing to do.
Would you ever leave a date to go buy a condiment if a restaurant did not have it? Do you agree with her roommate that she acted rudely? Did Michael have a right to leave after dinner? How would you have reacted in this situation?
