Last week, TikToker @dafna_diamant shared a video of herself supposedly leaving a first date that didn't go well. "Why am I doing this to myself?" she says, detailing a story of another terrible date she has experienced in New York City. She tells a story of meeting a guy that she met on a dating app, and things seemed to be going well. "He seems very nice," she says. "Things are going well." When the waitress comes to take their order, Dafna orders the branzino, and the guy orders the burger. When he was asked if he wanted cheese on the burger, he asked if it was an extra cost. The waitress responded and said it was $3 extra. He declined and lamented about the fact that you have to pay extra for everything these days. Dafna ate some of her food when it came out, then got up and went to the bathroom. She approached the waiter to pay the bill and texted the guy, "The check is taken care of. You should have gotten the cheese."
