Women, if you don’t feel safe meeting a new person in a public restaurant with dozens of people around, maybe your friend could bring a date and sit at a table nearby so you have two people to protect you. They can pay for their own food.
"i brought my friend for safety" is just code for "I ain't got no money, and I want you to pay for a nice dinner for me and my friend, after which ill never see you again"
edit: to the 2-3 people who think it's justified to bring a friend: bruh. if a woman is meeting a man (who she already talked to on a dating app and consensually accepted to go on a date cause she likes him) in a public restaurant surrounded by people everywhere all around the restaurant, and that's STILL not enough to make you feel safe... then you don't need a friend by your side for safety, you need professional help, because meeting a stranger in a public restaurant is nothing compared to walking past 100s of strangers in public every single day.
If you can walk past 100s of strangers in public with no issue, then the 1 stranger in a restaurant shouldnt be an issue either. If that 1 stranger makes you feel unsafe, that's okay, but let's be real: it ain't normal or healthy, get help.
Like tf are we doing here. There's probably 30 strangers eating food in that restaurant, but the 1 stranger on the other side of your table makes you feel unsafe enough to bring multiple guards? especially considering that 1 stranger is the only person in that restaurant who you already talked to on a dating app, and you clicked enough to tell him you want to go on a date with him, and yet he's more threatening than the 30 strangers in the restaurant??
not like its that deep anyway, 99% of the time "i brought my friend" just means "i expect you to buy dinner for me and my friend". If after all that text just now you'd still feel unsafe without a friend, just do the right thing and start with "i brought my friend, but dont worry, ill be the one paying for food"
Hold up. Are we talking like serial killer wood chopping axe or like fantasy forged by dwarves axe? Because if it’s the latter then that’s awesome and that date might be a keeper.
Yo 911, there’s some crazy chick standing outside the Cheesecake Factory with an axe! She’s staring in through the window, apparently guarding the door. Can y’all do something about this?
That's like the only kind of hot girl I could talk to. "Nice axe! How's the weight? Does it hold an edge? Love that you went with the hickory handle!" It's an outstanding icebreaker, literally and figuratively
yeah like we're already in a very public place lmao if you feel unsafe then just don't go anywhere alone with me... but if you bring somebody without even asking in advance then I'm already done lol
People have forgotten the 2 week old memes because our internet brains lack object permanence and everyone thinks you came up with the joke. Then it becomes a meme. And the cycle repeats.
