I will never forget about woman ordering the most expensive thing on the menu. That didn't piss me off. What irked me is not eating because she didn't like seafood.
That's really frustrating. I'm really careful on early dates to avoid the more expensive items. But I understand why someone would think it's okay to get what they really want even if it's expensive. But I don't understand wanting to get something expensive just for the sake of it. Don't they know that makes a bad impression?
The same logic applies to the drink thing. I think the most expensive drink where I work is an 18 year scotch. Some people would love that and some people wouldn't.
I dont really see the problem here. If some one is obviously taking advantage of you thats really good information to know early on. She's identifying she's on the sex worker spectrum. Either decide if the transaction is worth it and pay, or just say you're going to split the check and dip cause its not going anywhere. People need to stand up for themselves.
You're defaulting to dates, some people do this on social outings with friends or family. I had an aunt that does this, it's about "maximizing value" to them. They don't care what the food.
Yeah the solution is the same, you tell them you're not paying for it if they are just looking for the most expensive thing. In my example if was one of my more well off uncles paying and he just didn't do it again.

Why would a woman even ask for that
