A 27-year-old man who found out that his date was a single mother has demanded she pay him back because he ‘doesn’t date single moms’.
The man took to Reddit’s AITA forum and explained that he has a ‘no single moms’ policy as he thinks it’s difficult to be spontaneous when it comes to making plans as kids have to be considered.
The anonymous man said she met a woman named Morgan when he visited a friend’s house about four months ago.
“Me and Morgan had an immediate connection. She was really cute and had a good personality so I was interested. I asked my friends girlfriend to set me up and she did,” he wrote.
“I got Morgan’s contact info and we started texting. During the conversation I asked if she had any kids and she said no. Perfect, because I don’t date single mums. I’ve had issues with it in the past and it’s just not something I’m comfortable doing anymore. I told her this and she said she understood.”
The two went on five dates together but it was after their fifth date when the man looked her up on Facebook. That’s when he saw that she has a child.
“She had a kid on her profile. I thought maybe it was a nephew. But kept scrolling and found more pics. Definitely her kid. So I texted and asked she if she had a kid. She said, ‘why are you asking?’ I told her about the Facebook. She then admitted to having a kid,” he continued.
“She said she didn’t like to bring him up until she knew she could trust a guy. And that she’s at the point now where she trust me.”
He said that he’d demanded she pay him back as he’d spent around $500 on all their dates.
“I guess Morgan told my friend’s girlfriend because she texted me, Saying that I’m being an a**hole, but my friend is defending me saying that I shouldn’t have been lied to, and paying $100 is nothing compared to the hundreds I spent on dates. And she still has the ticket.”
One Reddit user commented: “She’s sucks for lying but bro just let it go and move on. It’s $100. Not worth the energy to try to retrieve it, nor is it a good look. You had fun on the dates and it didn’t work out. That’s dating in general. Would you ask for the money back if you simply found you weren’t compatible?”
Another wrote: “I can see requesting the ticket back and reselling it. The rest I’d write off and move on. In the future, probably best to just split the cost of dates.”
