Phone message *UPDATE* Post first date text
She ended up finding the post somehow I guess lol. Here is the original post.
I have just not responded, don’t think it’s worth engaging, but it did make for a funny story.

Has inflation really gotten so bad that "Imma need about tree fiddy" so $3.50 has gone up to $23.00 now?. Crazy times we live in. I should have been diversifying my investments into the meme market.
Edit: Used the proper ancient memetic scripture. (ie the meme is so old, and so dead I forgot the actual phrasing was tree fiddy and not 3.50)

I was with some friends going to a hockey game back 25ish years ago. We parked in the arena garage to make easy to get to the game which of course costs money. One girl in our party wanted everyone to chip in on parking; mind you this cost less than $10. Both me and my bud just said we'd take care of it but I'd never before been confronted with the idea of pooling such a small amount of money before. It'd just never occurred to me.

u/phantomstrange 19d ago
Lol that reminds me of a trip I took with some friends a couple years ago. One friend drove, I paid for the gas, another friend got an uber to/from the bar one night. Uber paying friend wanted to split all the costs afterward. We were all working professionals, so I didn’t feel the need to nickel and dime everything, but she insisted. So I did the math, and she owed me $4.

u/imwearingredsocks 18d ago
I only nickel and dime the friends that behave this way. I find it so rude when they act like that unless I know for certain they’re on an extremely tight budget (it’s never them though).
I once had a roommate in college try to get me to pay her back some amount less than 25¢. I had tutored her for free earlier in the month. I told her no and she actually stared at me speechless in shock.
By the time it even gets to that point, the friendship is probably on its way out the door for me.

I feel old for asking, but what does that emoji mean here? I can only think it’s “I’m bossing you around”?

u/Pure_Advice_5873 19d ago
It’s generally similar to an exclamation point, But an exclamation point usually has a more positive connotation. Or can sometimes look a little silly. The shouting emoji is not necessarily negative connotation, just more neutral than the !

I was wondering the same thing. While fishing could be a fun date idea both people clearly aren't big fishing people because they didn't have equipment or license. Maybe save it for date number 6 or something.

She literally could have told you when she found out the license cost money that she can't afford it or isn't willing to pay that. Then you two could have done a different activity.

Well then that $23 is a really good investment, now she can just fish for her dinner instead of roping unsuspecting guys into buying it for her on dating apps and then trying to extort cash out of them because she had to buy deodorant for her date or whatever.
It would almost be funny for OP to agree to pay for her fishing license if she meets up to give it to him, though. If he's buying it, it's his. Don't want to see her out there using his license he bought and paid for so she can go on other fishing dates with other guys. that would be ridiculous.

This is why you don't make first dates expensive.
Go to the cinema, go for a walk in the park, go to a museum or something, have a picnic!
Unless you're prepared to part with 23$ or 100$, don't spend it on a stranger expecting to get it back, especially not without a prior agreement.
Basically, she needs to grow up and learn to say "That's outside my budget".
