[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. So we met and I was famished. My plan was to eat and pay for myself so I opened the menu. He stated that he usually doesn't eat past 7 pm because he gets bad dreams..!?? He didn't appear to be joking. I ordered an entree and he had soup. We split chips and guac, I had one glass of wine, he too. Convo was okay, he's cute but I wasn't impressed that he kept his hat on the whole meai.. But that's certainly not a deal breaker.  Well, the check came and I was talking so he picked it up and opened it. Since my plan all along was to pay for my own dinner I reached for my purse. He immediately stated, "Let's split it. I don't mind doing that, it's fine" (as if he was doing me a favor or something). Bill came to $52, we each put in $30. I mentioned how our server was excellent and maybe we should tip a bit more and he said, "well how do you want to do that?" I said maybe he could take the cash and put it on his card which he did. I was really only thinking a few more dollars but maybe that wasn't necessary. I was parked in a lot so he walked me to the garage (not the car) hugged me and left.

Clearly he's not interested but I wasn't impressed that he left with my $30 in his wallet. It just doesn't seem like a man who wants to impress me and put his best foot forward.

Would I go out with him again if he asked? Possibly but I wouldn't expect to pay.[/quote]

Yeah he's not interested in impressing you. I wouldn't have said to do a bigger tip, but that's just me -- 15% is plenty and I'd want to get the hell out of there. It's not just that though -- acting like he was doing you a favor by splitting, eating when he said he wouldn't/couldn't, walking you to the garage but not the car, and no kiss or attempt to kiss -- just doesn't strike me as someone who is interested. If you know that, then why would you waste your time. Unless he is so fascinating that you could talk to him forever or so cute you could look at him forever and are hoping that you'll just jump into bed -- but I'm not hearing that from your post.[/quote]
