First Date at Dominos

She noted that instead of getting upset or continuing as if nothing happened, the man became visibly uncomfortable and kept apologizing throughout the meal.
She revealed that the man kept apologizing throughout the meal after realizing her age, making the date feel awkward but also respectful at the same time.

She wrote:
“He was 33 and I was 19, he kept apologizing while we were eating pizza in Domino’s. He said if he knew my age, he wouldn’t have asked me out.”
Her statement sparked mixed reactions, with some praising the man for being responsible and others questioning how the age conversation did not come up earlier.
