OP here. I paid if it matters and the portion sizes were small to medium, which is why I assumed she didn’t like it.

The food thing is an excuse.

If she had the “courage” to tell you that was N issue the next day, then she could have easily made a playful joke in the moment like “no way!—get your own!…..I’m taking mine home for later!” —-with an easy laugh as she guarded her plate.
Instead, she said she didn’t mind if you ate it when she really did.

That’s just dumb.

Frankly, I think it was tacky to ask her for her food on a date. But it's also pretty tacky to ask for a doggy bag on a date.

Let it go. If she was really into you, this wouldn't have mattered. I guess she just isn't.

Food waste is what’s tacky. If your values don’t align, happy to toss you back into the sea.

I don't waste food.
But if I went on a date, I wouldn't order food I wasn't hungry enough to eat, or order too much so that I could take some home.

Honesty would have been telling him no in the moment when he directly asked her if he could eat the food.

What she did and then got mad about is the exact opposite of honesty.

OP, are you overweight ?

There is no food waste in this situation.

If you were paying attention, I was specifically responding to the idea that a doggy bag is tacky. Keep up or sit down.

It doesn’t matter who paid for it. It’s her dinner. Do you treat your friends for their birthday and then eat as much as you want of their food, because you paid for it? Boor.

Are you a lawyer or some aggressive profession? You are definite not in customer facing role … I am guessing. Just curious what you do for a living.

Troll. Sad that this board has become a home base for si many attention seekers

She might be a huge catch. She knew she could do better. Not some dude with a homeless-sized appetite.

She should've just said she wanted to take it home.
