For many, the first date or outing with a girl is always an opportunity for guys to prove themselves, not only in terms of chivalry and politeness but also to leave a good impression on the other person. However, recently, the online community was abuzz after reading a confession from a guy about his first dating experience, where he only had 50,000 VND in his pocket and was bluntly called “country bumpkin” by the girl. What many thought would garner sympathy turned out to backfire, as most of the online community condemned his lack of chivalrous behavior.
Instead of going out for a meal, coffee, or watching a movie like other couples, the guy chose a tea shop as the meeting point for their first encounter. Furthermore, he was even too shy to order a plate of sunflower seeds and confessed to the girl that “I only have 50k left in my pocket, and I need to save some for gas on the way back.” Even when the girl was about to leave, he showed no regret, only concerned about who would pay for the “lemon tea,” and criticized the girl for being stingy. At this point, it was quite unbearable, and naturally, the online community had plenty of negative comments for the guy.
“At this rate, it’s clear the original poster will never have a girlfriend.”
“For a first meeting, at least be decent and make a good impression. Once you’re in a relationship, taking her for iced tea can wait.”
“Bringing only 50,000 to meet for the first time is truly a lost cause.”
“At this point, what kind of relationship can you have? Use that 50,000 for something better, dude.”
