«Me, him and the waitress»: the story of one bad date

How to make a date successful? Hundreds of books have been written about it and as many training videos have been shot. And the most important rule indicated in them says — be attentive to your partner. During the meeting, there should be nothing more important than him — no news or calls from friends. True, judging by the experience of our heroine, not everyone follows this testament.

Many girls have a whole list of unsuccessful dates during which something went wrong: the appearance of the counterpart did not match his photo on the site, the meeting place was unsuccessful, or the partner himself turned out to be strange … But situations like Emily from Los Angeles, happen infrequently. At least I want to believe it.

Emily saw her companion not for the first time — their acquaintance took place two days before the date: “I was standing in line at the bar, and he came up and spoke to me. And I felt very comfortable.”

As a result, the girl gave her phone number to a new acquaintance, but it was not him who aroused her interest, but his friend — Emily expected that they would spend time together, and then she would get to know him better. But she failed to put the plan into action.

X-day has come. “When he suggested that we meet for dinner, I thought that we would gather with the whole company,” the narrator explained. — When I realized that we were left alone, it was too late to retreat. And I thought it was worth giving him a chance.»

The meeting didn’t go well from the start. The young man talked all the time about himself, about his desire to run a youtube channel with fashion tips for men, and even commented on the appearance of his companion. And then he started flirting … with the waitress. Which Emily recorded on video, later posting it on TikTok.

And then “everything got even better” — according to the narrator, the waitress answered the flirtation, not paying attention to the fact that the girl was next to them.

Emily’s first thought was revenge — she noted that she wanted to ask the guy to buy her a drink, and then go flirt with someone else in front of him. But the girl did not do this. She just talked to another woman and went home.

Emily’s video story quickly became popular and garnered over a thousand comments. Many were surprised that the girl stayed at the bar and allowed flirting next to her, instead of immediately leaving.

Someone even sided with the guy: “Maybe you weren’t interesting enough? If you played on the phone or made him «pull» the conversation on you, then this is your problem. But it’s not. According to Emily, the counterpart called her several times after that meeting, but she did not answer him. And who is not interested here?

It’s nice to know that everything ended well. The narrator specified that this story did not upset her and did not turn her away from new acquaintances. On the contrary, some time later she had an “amazing” meeting with an “amazing” person. We can only assume that the new companion knew the rules of good dates. And he did not flirt with anyone except the girl.
