💨 Abstract

The narrator recounts a disastrous date at a fancy restaurant where her date behaved inappropriately. He pretended to be a guest, ordered expensive dishes, and acted drunk, despite claiming to have only had one drink. He cried over his ex-wife’s cat, made insensitive comments, and tried to leave without paying. The narrator, there for a work review, was mortified. Though he later apologized, she ended the date and vowed to trust her instincts more in the future.
