Woman Was Left Shocked After Man Asked To Split The Bill On Date After Ordering Double The Amount Of Food
A woman was left unimpressed after her date ordered a steak, a salad, a side dish, an appetiser and a few glasses of red wine versus her one small salad and a cocktail and then asked her to split the bill in half.
The debate between who should pay on the first date or if people should go Dutch has been going on for too long. Now, is it fair to split the bill if the amount of eaten by both the people is completely different?
Well, a woman surely thinks so. This woman named Marina, who posts under the username marina_in_dubai on TikTok has divided followers by sharing how a dinner date went awry when the guy asked her to split the bill evenly.
Marina, who lives in Dubai, said that she met the man on Tinder and couldn't believe he wanted her to pay for his food.
She said: "So I'm on a date with this guy at the restaurant and he is ordering himself a steak, a salad, a side dish, an appetizer, and a few glasses of red wine."
Adding: "I just got one small salad and one cocktail. Then the bill comes and I obviously was like would you like me to contribute?"

"He is like 'oh ya sure let's do 50/50.' 50/50? No. Are you serious? Are you serious!" said Marina.
Adding: "No way. I am not gonna pay 50/50 for one small salad and a cocktail."
The video which has gone viral has been viewed more than 83,000 times. Many people had a very divided stand on this. While some thought this was funny, many thought this isn't fair.
One user said, "Well he should pay 50/50 for your makeup and nails and hair, because if you didn¡¯t do all that he wouldn¡¯t like it."

Another wrote, "I¡¯m not paying anything. Period. It¡¯s a date. Let that man be a man and not a friend."
A third user added, "This happened to me. I said I forgot my wallet and blocked him when I left." Yet another posted, "Feminism, equality, and stuff as long as you benefit right."
This is not the first time a woman has been disappointed on a date because of payment issues. Recently, another instance had gone viral where a woman described a date she had with a man who apparently only bought himself food because she didn¡¯t bring any money.
She posted pictures of herself sitting empty-handed while the guy was hogging on the food that he brought. People were pretty divided about this as well.
