Today, I had a date with a girl I've liked for a while. We went out to a nice Italian restaurant for dinner. I was obviously going to pay, but when the bill came I realized I'd forgotten my wallet. When I told her, she thought I was a cheap liar and now she won't answer my calls. FML

Sounds like you dodged a bullet there. Anyone who expects their date to pay and is offended when they don't are usually cheap themselves.

If you had clearly said you were going to pay I can understanding her being upset, but even so she overreacted and is a bitch. Could you not have offered to pay her back though and avoided it being an issue? I think it's safe to say you lucked out though, she doesn't seem worth your time.

To everyone saying she should hear him out, I'm pretty sure she heard all she needed at the restaurant. While it was an honest mistake on his part, it looks really bad.

what would you do if you were dining alone? man up and deal with the situation with the manager, leave your date out of it, that will show her character, what you showed that day was a pussy and she already has one of those

If she didn't hear you out,or at least offer to pay her back later or take the next bill I'd say dodge a bullet probably was just looking for a free meal.

Sounds like you are better off in my opinion

Leaving the house? Keys, wallet, phone. Been drilling this into my kids heads for 15 years.

At least she was going to let you attempt to pay My girlfriend refuses to allow me to pay for her (for anything) if not attempting to pay for the both of us But they wonder why chivalry is dead

Doesn't sound like your girl is the type to be too upset over a sexist system dying.

Whoever who asked the other out is obliged to pay unless there is an agreement beforehand. Gender does not matter all, what matters is that another person is taking the time out of their day to spend time with a person who initiated the date to begin with. Basically if you ask someone on a date pay for it.

This is a nice sentiment but 99.9% of the time the man asks the woman out so they will usually always have to pay. Until such a time as women actually put themselves out there and ask the guy out, going halves or at the very least expecting to pay for yourself isn't unreasonable.

Honestly ydi, but hear me out! You shouldn't leave your house without your wallet in general, sure it sucks but it also should be habit.

I understand her being upset. OP didn't say she expected him to pay for the whole thing, the girl probably just wasn't expecting to pay for the whole meal. If someone asked me on a date and I had to end up paying for the whole thing without knowing I would be mad too.
