Go broke, go woke

By Anonymous - This FML is from back in 2010 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, I went on a date with my new boyfriend. When the check came, he asked, "Do you accept food stamps?" When the waiter said no, he checked in his wallet and said, "Well all I have is five dollars." I ended up picking up the $20 tab. FML

Oh shit, you payed for a tab, and an expensive one at that! This begs for a chivalry/equality debate, no?

I don't think ANY restaurant takes food stamps...if they did, the boys and I would be able to eat like kings more often!~

Awe! He tried! A+ for effort! If my man did that, I wouldn't be posting it on FML, that's for sure!

You should pay for part of it anyway dumb bitch

If the bill was $20, he was making her pay for part of his portion, too, assuming he at least gave her his $5. That would make him the dumb bitch, not her. He's the moocher, not her...He's the one who went out to eat without having enough to at least pay for his half of the meal.

I always thought guys paying was dumb I'm a girl and your a living shit

Still you call him your new boyfriend... YDI!!

They are probably 13 and went to McDonalds. Just Saying YDI

I willingly paid for my first date with my current boyfriend. We usually switch off on who is paying. this is the 21st century, get with it, ladies!

I don't get what the big deal is? So you had to help a homie out. He must like you to ask you out when all he has is food stamps and $5
