Yeah, if he was on food stamps for any extended period of time, he would know which restaurants accept them as a form of payment, if any at all. Kinda sucks if OP didn't know he was on food stamps, but I agree that you should go on several dates before committing to a relationship to find this stuff out, if it phases you.

again!!! read!!! no where did the fml said this is a first date!

no where it didn't say it wasnt

To all: it originally said first date but was later edited.

No restaurant accepts food stamps. They can't be used for prepared food.

Most fast food joints now accept EBT. The government is extending the places that take it because more and more ppl are on the program. And the "restaurants" get more $ as to not accepting it. So the taxpayers are paying for your happy meal. :)

^hahah(:

how can you afford the Internet and/or computer etc but still need to use food stamps? I don't get it. I can see food stamps as a dire necessity type deal.

28- You must be sheltered or something(no pun intended). You are so dumb, you are really dumb. For real, homeboy. Ever heard of a library? Neighbors? Affordable Internet? or even cheap people?

Yet again, 28 food-stamps are for people who make a low income. They don't have to be completely broke.

Fuhohohoho!~ It's always so funny when people don't know who I am! I have no proper income, darling!~ I live off what the boys and I can take from those who have too much!~

robinhood?

get a job?

Get a job loser

Stop taking my hard earned money dipshit try and find a job

maybe he didn't even have that, probably was caught off guard:/ ladies don't always have cash on them. I prefer carrying just my card and DL. but I guess that's just me..

Ok, buying food is one thing. But, you've heard of "One person ruining it for everyone?" Well, there are a whole bunch of drugged-out persons running around taking advantage of a system some people rely on for dire support.

There is nothing wrong with food stamps it's the governments way of making sure that the people who make low incomes are well fed.

Dude. There is A LOT wrong with the food stamp system. At least here in Louisiana. People tack on other dependents to get more money, they find ways to lie about household income, etc. Although the state does make sure you can't use the cards on certain things. And certain stores just don't accept them. But the system is flawed. There's plenty of people taking advantage who make it so some that actually are in need can't get assistance.

117 is right....that's why poor people have like 800 kids. it's disgusting.

you're a freaking ignorant idiot if you think women are exactly 'equal' to men..

When you invite guests into your home for dinner, you don't ask them to bring the food. It should be the same for dates. You ask, you pay.

When you invite guests into your home for dinner, you don't ask them to bring the food. It should be the same for dates. You ask, you pay. BTW, don't assume all women want your concept of "equality". I know many young women who are fine with the traditional roles.

you're saying that the asker is also the one to foot the bill. but clearly, you're one of those that's content with the traditional roles. so that implies that the guy should be the one who asks out the girl, therefore always being the one paying. am i wrong?

What's wrong with going dutch? A lot of couples don't do the traditional "asking out to dinner" thing nowadays; they just decide to go eat together. A man expecting his date to pay is just as bad as a woman doing the same.

You're wrong. How is it clear I'm content in a traditional role? My husband and I often went Dutch when we were dating. Now, I almost always pay. He pays for other things. I wasn't applying my personal situation here. Just saying I don't know why many men are put out when a woman expects him to pay. If you are offering to take someone out, it seems logical that it is your treat. When I asked my husband out, I expected to pay.
