Ooh, let me think of some stories from my "work with a brotha" days...
#1
He took me on a "romantic" evening bike ride through the city (I was new there). For dinner we had a picnic in the park where there was a free concert going on. No biggie.
The next day he invited me to join him at another park for lunch. I got there and he pulled out the same meat/cheese plate from the night before (what we didn't finish).
#2
I met a guy while on vacation and he invited me to lunch. Once the check came I realized that he intended for us to go dutch. He told me he would have paid for the full meal, but he was broke until his next payday
. Naturally, I was extremely turned off but went to pay for my food anyway so I could bounce. The restaurant's payment system wouldn't take my card, so I had to go to the atm. This fool sat at the restaurant while I had to walk multiple blocks to find an atm. He was too broke or too selfish to just pay my half and let me give him the money back if he needed it that badly. I got back, paid, and didn't say anything to him-- just walked away and enjoyed the rest of my vacation with no broke man in my face.
#3
College days-- this guy I occasionally messed around with bumped into me at a concert. He offered to buy me a drink. The next day he texted me asking if I could give him the money back for the drink because overspent that day and was in the negative.
#4 -- Not me but a former coworker
She had a guy take her out on a proper date, but then call her the next day asking if she could refund what he spent. Yet again, he used the "overspent and now broke" excuse.
So glad I grew up and moved on from broke men.
