The
Date From Hell Archives
CHEAPSKATE!!Here
is my terrible date, and might I add I have never had another like it.

I
was invited by a guy to dinner and a movie. When he came to pick me up,
he said he wasn't feeling well. I asked him if he wanted to cancel the
date and try it again at another time. He said, that he still wanted to
go out and all he really needed was to sit down and rest for a while.
So that is what we did, right up until it was time to head to the
theater to see the movie.
At that time all of a
sudden he was well again. We got to the movie theater and when I asked
for a small popcorn he said he wasn't hungry. So no dinner, and no
snacks at the movies either. The movie ended late and so we decided to
call it a night. When I told him I was hungry and wanted to stop at a
drive-thru he said "I'm not hungry." I informed him that I was hungry
and that I would pay for my meal. Well, then it was OK.
I
ended up paying for a 99 cent hamburger. I began to realize he didn't
want to pay for any meals whatsoever. Later I thought it over and
decided that maybe he wasn't hungry....maybe I was being a bit harsh.
So I decided to give it one more try. He invited me to get an ice
cream. When we got to the ice cream parlor he ordered a sundae, when he
was done ordering, the attendant asked me what I would like, and my
date said "We are going to share mine."
I informed
him that the sundae he ordered didn't appeal to me, and that I didn't
like some of the items he had chosen. Reluctantly, he said I could get
the kind I wanted. Then I realized what a cheapskate he really was.
Needless to say, I never went out with him again. Now maybe you have
heard some really terrible stories, worse than mine, but I must say
Gentlemen, if you ask a woman out to dinner or a movie, or even for an
ice cream cone, let her get what she wants and be prepared for it.
Enough said.
