Would You Call This A Stingy Act? Date With My Girl Gone Wrong. by manos(m): 10:22am On May 07, 2022 |
Would you call this a stingy act? Date with my girl gone wrong. Short recap: Several years ago (probably around 2008), i and my girl had spent a year together dating at the time, and I was in my final year. We lived as neighbours in the same off-campus student's lodge. The school was located in a rural area, hence no access to good restaurants, supermarkets, malls and other places a couple could go to have fun. So we hardly ever did go out. On some fateful day, we had a break from school, due to public holidays and I decided to go to a nearby town to do a market survey/window shopping of some computer parts (I am a computer enthusiast). She had complained earlier on, that she was quite bored, so I decided to kill two birds with a stone, by asking her to come along with me so that we could have the experience together. Long story short, we went on the survey, which took about two hours plus and by time we were done, we were hungry and exhausted and luckily there was an eatry around that area. I decided that we should go in and have lunch. I made a rough estimate in my mind, that it would probably cost the both of us 5k to have a meal and drinks similar to other eatries which I was accustomed to at the time. But on getting to the checkout, I realised it was almost twice my estimate (at this time I was not working and paying for this meal of almost 10k was to come from my monthly allowance from my parents which was basically 20k). I quickly improvised given the situation i found myself and asked my girl to take her order. She requested for some fried rice and some chicken, while I just requested for a meatpie and drinks to subsidize the cost and then requested for 2 spoons so we could share the rice (Total cost now came down to roughly 6k). The waiter promptly obliged and hence i paid and we proceeded to our seats with the food. She asked if I wasn't going to order food for myself and i replied by telling her that I ordered for two spoons so that we could share (I could have some of her rice and she could have some of my meatpie). I noticed her countenance changed and she didn't like the idea. I asked her why she was upset and she couldn't mention. She commenced eating and I picked up my spoon to dig in to her rice (we always eat together from a plate at home, the difference now is that we are in public) and immediately I put my spoon in she stopped eating and refused to eat the food any further, safe for the few spoons she had eaten before I joined her. I tried to cajoule her to continue eating but she refused and at the end of the day I had to continue eating the food alone. I tried to make things lively on our way home by making one more stop before heading home, where I bought her some novels. (she loved reading romance novels back then) she picked 2 of them but still her countenance didn't really improve much. On getting home and some days later, when she was finally able to talk about it, she opened up and told me that she sees what I did at the eatery of not ordering for 2 plates of food for the both of us as a very stingy act. I tried to explain to her why It had to happen that way but she took it with a pinch of salt. Recently after all this years have passed she reminded me about that incidence again in an unrelated argument and I was shocked that despite my explanation of that event she kept it at the back of her mind as a reason to judge me as a stingy person. Now my question to the ladies (mainly because I am a man and understand that we see things from different perspectives) and anyone patient enough to have gotten to this point: Is this act really a stingy act? And please explain your answers. Probably telling me how you could have handled the eatry situation better if you were in my shoes. 1 Like |

That's woman for u.. If u dance to their tune then u are a mumu if u try to cut cost then u are stingy.. In short u can not satisfy a woman no matter ur effort, they will still have something negative to say to counter u. The worst of it all is those of them that don't forget events of the past.. They will keep reminding you of ur past actions ... Those ones are stubborn ehn... 10 Likes 1 Share

First thing first! Where are u that u are spending 5k-10k for meal of just 2 persons? Marriages are crumbling today cos of all these .....what I can offer / cash out mentalities taking to marriage. Immediately after marriage if it seizes to continue, that's begining of toxic/crashed marriage. Let us learn how to give what we can afford,not only to partners but also everybody, by doing that u won't be regretting ur actions. 7 Likes |

You shouldn't have order for food,the meatpie and drinks would have being enough, honestly i find it kind of embrassing sharing food with someone in public(especially a guy),i don't like it, i'm sure she's that kind of person,MEN, if you take a girl out and you know your money can't afford food you go for snack,it not a must that yot must buy her food just to impress her, personally i even perfer snacks because i don't like eating in public. 3 Likes |

Why didn't you just tell her you didn't have enough money and see what her reaction would be. Besides you still ended up buying novels for her on your way home and still expected her to believe you didn't have money? Some times, men are the architects of their own misfortune. 1 Like 1 Share |
