I'm supposed to meet this 24 yo hottie tomorrow.
She suggests a place here in Amsterdam and a quick glance at the menu online shows the prices are not for the faint hearted. (standard cup of coffee 9eu)
I'm thinking about cancelling, I don't even want to suggest a cheaper place and be accused of being tight azz on money.
How to proceed?
Had a chick pull this on me years ago. She suggested the most expensive place in town for our first date. I suggested another more simpler place since this would have been date one. She was adamant saying she wanted to go to expensive place with the justification "I've never been there and have always wanted to go." I said that i would prefer some place a little more toned down. How about we save the fancy place for a later date here is how the rest of our conversation went.
Her -"Oh come on I've always wanted to go to the Estrel. I have never been and think it would be awesome."
Me "how about this. Tonight will go to Kelseys and we will save the Estrel for another night down then road. Sound good?"
Her "mmmmm."
Me "what's the matter?"
Her " you're not a tight wad are you? "
Me " ok. Fine. Lets go the Estrel. Dinner is on you tonight."
Her " WTF? Uh no!"
Me smiling from ear to ear, " what's wrong? You're not a cheap tight wad are you?"
She sat dumbfounded for about 20 seconds saying nothing then i said "don't slam the car door on your way out. Dates over."
