Today, I wanted to take my girlfriend to a nice dinner before prom. Her parents followed her in, and joined us to "keep an eye on me." They interrupted all our conversations, ate an expensive meal, then got up and walked out when the waitress brought the $95 check, leaving me to pay for it. FML

If they were going to spy on you, they could've gotten another table nearby and bought their own meal. Not that it's okay for them to spy on you, but that just made it even more rude. Why would they want to "keep an eye on you" during your dinner only? Did they think you guys would have sex in the restaurant?

Her parents sound like assholes. Seriously, who does that? My parents are protective but if I go to a RESTAURANT with a friend/s they just drop me off and pick me up when I call them to get me. At the very least if they were going to 'keep an eye on you' (which is ridiculous seeing as you were in a public place) they should have gotten a table of their own and paid for their own meals... If I were you I would have specifically requested a table for two when I got to the restaurant. That way when they sat at a different table you wouldn't have been given their bill. A $95 bill is hard for a high school student, must have made quite the dent in your budget =( I bet they ordered all the expensive things too.

I'm assuming the kid is in high school, thus a 98 dollar check is quiet expensive. And the worst part is that the parents who are adults is making a kid pay. Pretty shameless adults that girl got as parents.

53, if you spend $25 a pop at McDonald's, you're a gigantic fatass and no amount of bragging about your math skillz will ever change that.

From the looks of you batman, you probably need at least 90-100 $$ to go somewhere by-YOURSELF.

deputy I agree under 100 for 4 people is not expensive for a nice dinner- more like 300 ( and no I'm not some spoiled brat who mooches off their parents) ...though prom suggests the OP is in highschool so he's prob used to chain restaurant prices like the 99 ( which is nasty) and the parents should have paid for their own food.

Her parents suck. You should have told them beforehand that you're only paying for your date. Ha.
