He Spent $500 On A Flight To New York City To Take A Girl Out On A Date, But After 30 Minutes Together, She Wasn’t Interested
Big, romantic gestures clearly aren’t just made for the movies because this 28-year-old guy spent $500 on a flight to New York City to take a girl out on a date.
He first met this girl online, and they talked to one another for an entire month. Through text, she came across as sweet and hilarious.
He really felt that they were getting along wonderfully, and although he asked her if she would like to do a video call, she said no.
She did say a lot of things to him throughout their conversations that led him to believe she could be the one for him.
She was family-oriented, she told her dad about him, and so, he figured that he should make a bold move and take a risk, which was flying across the country to meet this girl.
He booked his flights, and he booked a $300 hotel to stay at for 3 days. He and this girl then agreed to grab lunch together before heading to a library and exploring the city.
When he met her for the first time, he gave her a hug, and then they sat down to have lunch. Lunch went great, but it only lasted 30 minutes.
At that point, this girl told him her parents were texting her, and she needed to go. He was so surprised, and his stomach began to sink.
He really couldn’t believe that he had flown all the way there and made such an enormous effort, only for her to say she had to leave.

After a moment, he said it was fine, and she should go if her mom and dad really did need her. But, as she got up and walked off, he knew he would never see this girl again.
“I texted her after I got to the hotel, saying, “I had a great time with you. It seems like you are not that interested. Hope you find the right one,” she replied “Thank you for putting in all your effort, I didn’t really feel a connection between us. I wish you the best,” he explained.
“It was very painful, I was in a city all by myself for 3 days not knowing anyone. I tried to talk to people, so I went to the Hudson River and did start a conversation which helped a lot.”
“I just want to let you guys know dating is hard, I’m 28, putting in maximum effort. I do not have any bad intentions, really a family person.”
