Her 'joke' kinda pisses me off ... Or makes me feel bad for her

[GeeMale]

I was texting this chick:

Me: Let's meet up on blah blah blah at this time blah at blah.
Her: ok
Her: I'll bring my gift cards
Me: You're good, I got you
Her: it was a joke buddy

Wtf? Is she saying she basically expects me to pay ....so shes baiting me? Or is she that damn cheap? Buddy sounds condescending to me lol.

Probably her way of saying the place is cheap. Low to no interest in dating, she must be toying with you, either flake or just use you for a meal. I'd change venue to an expensive restaurant some distance from where she lives and flake on her.

Lol wow thanks for looking at that way. Yeah that's what I'm going to do, feel kinda disrespected. That 'cheap' place is Starbucks....a common first date. So I assume she's just not into me and toying.

Dude, literally like she said IT WAS A JOKE. Dont be so sensitive. Alot of communication gets lost in text. You dont get voice tone, cadence, body language, energy etc. Its very limited.

I dont understand how what she wrote would cause anyone to be butthurt, unless they are very insecure and have some kind of ego issues going on. A real man would soldier forth and just "gift cards? lol alright sounds good! " And move forward with the plans. Even better call her on the fukking phone and make arrangements.

It was a joke that fell flat. She didn’t mean any harm. Proceed as planned.

I hate coffee dates

Do what you want but being that sensitive will really limit your opportunities if you can't figure out a way to get thicker skin

That's how I saw it....I was like cool guess we're not paying a penny lol... " Lol it was a joke buddy" threw me off so I got curious on here...not butthurt at all. I literally thought for a sec she meant that she couldn't give a f*** about hanging out and now she's being condescending about a 'cheap place' . Everything was cool later and good haha

I would have said, good then you are paying

don't take things too serious, if you find something strange, make a joke, its also a good way to see if she is smart or a idiot, idiots normally tend to get pissy against jokes, when smart people would laugh.

its something I notice over the years, smart people when do dumb things laugh it of since he knows its dumb what he did and its not a normal thing he do, idiots in the other hand are so used to do dumb things when they do another dumb thing they can't take it anymore, they can't belive they are dumb so they get annoyed
