Today, this guy and I went on a date to the movies. We got up to the desk and I asked for one ticket for 'Jennifer's Body.' The guy moved his way in front of me and said, "make that two tickets." He then walked away to look at movie posters and left me with the $22.50 charge. FML

Today, I went to the movies with my crush, who had asked me out on a date. Assuming he'd pay, I left my money at home. When the time came to buy the tickets, he only bought one for himself. FML

Today, I went to the movies on a date. I went to pay for the tickets when I realized that I didn't have my wallet. Instead of my boyfriend paying, he laughed and paid for his own ticket. Then he went ahead and saw the movie without me. FML

Today, I went to a movie with this guy. He was late so the only seats available were the ones in the very front which he refused to sit in. As we were looking for two seats, he spotted one near the back and sat down, leaving me to sit by myself in the front. FML

Today, I went on an a date with a guy I met online. We were waiting in line at Starbucks when he turned to me and said, "Do you want anything?" Just before I was about to answer, he practically shoved in front of me and paid for himself. The cashier looked more horrified than I did. FML

Today, while on my way to the movies, I stopped at a gas station to pick up candy so I could avoid the high prices at the movies. The guy who tore my ticket asked for my purse, confiscated my candy, and then kicked me out of the movie theater. That guy was my boyfriend. FML

Today, my boyfriend wanted to take me to a movie after days of not seeing me. This long-awaited date involved me paying for food and my movie ticket when he ran out of cash again. He then dumped me as we left the theater walking to his car. Yes, I financed my own breakup date. FML

Movie night

Today, I went to the movies with my boyfriend. We went inside the theatre and he saw a couple of his friends. Instead of saying hi and coming back to watch the movie with me, he ditched me for them. When I reminded him he was forgetting something, he grabbed the popcorn out of my hands and left. FML

Today, I went to the cinema with a girl I like. Knowing she has a bit of a soft spot for me, I was keen to sit in the back row. Too bad her sister tagged along, insisted that we sit somewhere else, and scolded me every time I so much looked at her. I ended up paying for the unwanted guest as well. FML

Today, I went to see a movie with 4 friends. I didn't realize that I was the only one who didn't have a date. The theater row had just enough room for everyone but me, I got to sit in back of everyone else while they were making out in front of me for 2 hours. FML

And you paid? Why would you pay? Tell them "No. I just want one ticket." Don't take that shit, damn it.

Gotta love overpriced movie tickets. If a ticket is $11.25, a large popcorn would be about $9.00. That's a ton,

$11.25 is overpriced? you'd have to pay 2 or even 3 times as much around here

my movie theater's ticket prices vary. on a weekend, you might pay $8 but on a Wednesday afternoon you would pay $4

What? Just say "just one ticket actually" and pay for one ticket. You also know that you can return movie tickets for a refund if they haven't been ripped and the show hasn't started yet? EDIT: I finally understand what you wrote after reading it about 5 times. Just get him to pay for the popcorn / parking / drinks, etc, etc, etc

That's why he buys snacks, which is the real rip off at the theater. Or since it's the first date and you probably don't want a guy who expects you to pay for everything, just say thanks and nevermind and walk home like someone with a spine. :)

If you asked him out on a date to the movies, then it was your responsibility to buy his ticket, and it was very rude of you to only ask for one ticket. If he asked you, then he should have bought the tickets. Since you describe it as a date, and not "hanging out" or "seeing a movie" its a safe bet that at least one of you asked the other under the pretense of going on a date. In which case, one of you was responsible for buying the others ticket,unlike a situation where two friends go out together
