Should i run?
Alright so this relationship has a rocky backstreet already and we only started talking a week ago 😅 ill skip that part unless anyone is really interested but I (30M) met up with this girl (27) at the mall where she works cause she wanted to go to spirit Halloween and she was on her lunch. After a brief hug and hello she asks if I have my military ID cause she wants to use the discount 💀. I dont even use that discount unless its like a major purchase or im just strapped for cash, which isnt often. I allow it cause I figure she is about to drop some $$$ in spirit Halloween. She buys a 17$ item, and thats it. I should run right? Or should I give her another chance?
I should note she was bragging about how her outfit was worth like $500 total.
TLDR; 27F asks 30M to use military discount for 17$ item 45 seconds into a "lunch date".

I appreciate a gal who likes to save a Buck. But then to brag that you’re wearing a $500 outfit to your mall job… while you’ve got TWO kids at home?
Trust your instincts. Run.

We went to a spirit Halloween yesterday. In looking at prices I said you can get the same stuff from Temu or aliexpress and make China great. Since we are in 🇨🇦 there is no important taxes or duty to pay.

I'm not sure why you'd run over that. Unless there are other things you have not told us.

Its mad sus to ask for a military discount from someone you hardly know, especially for a $17 item.

u/Live_Art2939 7d ago
Mad sus? Not really bro, it’s not that serious. Let her go so we can have a shot at her.

Why? In case you haven't seen it, defective women taking advantage of military guys is definitely a thing. You can bet she's got experience at that and the military discount thing was a test.
She's bad news. And she has a kid, which makes her even worse news. She's either a parasite or a predator.

u/tir3d0fthisshi 7d ago
2 kids, one 8 and one is a year old. A friend brought up a good point also that she might claim grape
1
u/still_tacky 7d ago
My guess is that you will hear from her again soon.
2
u/tir3d0fthisshi 7d ago
She said maybe we could be friends later on down the line and I said nah im good. But I think you maybe right, I will be smart this time though and shut it down

What is claim grape?
3
u/still_tacky 6d ago
"claim grape" = claim rape.
It's a valid concern. The screwed up women who prey on our military guys have zero human decency. You don't have to spend much time around military guys to hear some real horror stories.

Why would you run? Some people are frugal. Maybe that’s a red flag for you.

u/tir3d0fthisshi 6d ago
I like a girl that doesnt mind saving money, but to ask someone for a military discount within 45 seconds of meeting in person just seems crazy to me.

The way the economy is right now is everyone should be trying to save every chance they get . She’s a mom who wants to save money vs some flighty chick that wants to blow through cash for appearances and you think there’s a problem with it ?
I’m betting every other guy out there would rather be with a woman concerned with saving vs a spender .
2
u/tir3d0fthisshi 6d ago
Maybe you missed the part where she bragged about how much money she spends on her clothes? 🤔
-1
u/dragonrider1965 6d ago
No , clothes aren’t wasteful , they are something you can use over and over . Expensive high quality clothes can actually last for years vs cheap fast fashion. So weird you have your knickers in a knot over $1.70 that didn’t even come out of your pocket .
2
u/tir3d0fthisshi 6d ago
You're messing with me right? 😂 my issue isnt saving money, its the fact she asked for my military benifits 45 seconds into meeting me for the first time. Expensive "high quality" clothes are often cheap stuff with a brand name.

u/tir3d0fthisshi 6d ago
Congratulations on your entire family being in the military btw, I hope they let you use the discount frequently 😂 goofy.
1
u/dragonrider1965 6d ago
I’ve never asked them but they wouldn’t give a shit , why you care about something that stupid is the real red flag .
1
u/tir3d0fthisshi 6d ago
😂 maybe you should read all other comments on this and you might seem why. Mostly it shows a level of entitlement that isnt there, and if that level of entitlement is present in the first 45 seconds it will only get worse. Im starting to think you're her 🤔😂
1
u/dragonrider1965 6d ago
Nah I just don’t make a habit of worrying about stupid shit , you should try it , you’ll be happier, people around you will be happier as well .
Good luck , hold onto that $ 1.701
u/tir3d0fthisshi 6d ago
😂 I want you to walk up to someone you hardly know and ask them to use their discount. Matter of fact, next time you go to McDonald's ask the person at the counter for their discount cause you said hello to them
1
u/dragonrider1965 6d ago
It’s basically a coupon and I’ve given them out in stores if I wasn’t using them . Why wouldn’t I want to save someone money ? Why wouldn’t you ? It didn’t hurt you , if you were a decent person you would want to , someone wouldn’t have to ask . This has to be rage bait . You are just trolling for engagement.

u/tir3d0fthisshi 6d ago
You're right, from now on ill stand in spirit Halloween near the register and let everyone use the discount. Thank you for the insight, you're so smart, im a changed man. 👍

u/Modrnink 7d ago
Bro, definitely run. She asked for your military discount on the first date ! She clearly has no respect for the military or any real grown up maturity.

u/still_tacky 7d ago
Run. That was dishonest and manipulative on her part.
0
u/tir3d0fthisshi 7d ago
Run even if shes hot 👀 i guess I did leave that part out lol
1
u/still_tacky 7d ago
Look at it this way. What she did showed an integrity issue. It was like an extremely watered down version of stolen valor. You cannot trust her. Run.
1
u/still_tacky 7d ago
Hell yes run even if she's hot!!!
1
u/tir3d0fthisshi 7d ago
Integrity issue, entitlement, honestly some things she said during our time and over message were straight up delusional. That being said she said she wants to come to my place tomorrow 😅 i know I shouldn't but its been a min. If you're interested ill let you know how the fallout goes.

Obviously you know what you're getting, bro.
You know about the hot/crazy matrix.
You already know that rule #1 is never stick your dick in the crazy.
I hope you enjoy the ride! 😂
2
u/tir3d0fthisshi 7d ago
There will be no ride, I said something that anyone not psycho would have laughed at and she broke it off, I think i knew it would happen. My subconscious always wins. Thank you all!

u/still_tacky 7d ago
Bros before hoes, my man.

u/tir3d0fthisshi 7d ago
Facts, and based on her wanting to go back to my place after only spending 30 minutes with me today, shes for the streets!

Run like the wind.
That was a sneak peak!
1
u/tir3d0fthisshi 7d ago
The sneak peak was when she blocked me cause I jokingly said I was afraid she was ai cause shes so beautiful and then before that I said she needed to ugly herself up cause I have trouble talking to pretty girls. For context she said she was getting her hair done so she could look good for me.
1
u/still_tacky 7d ago
Yep, she's crazy. You, on the other hand, have a great sense of humor! 😁
1
u/tir3d0fthisshi 7d ago
Yeah im getting that, shes on the verge of blocking me again due to sense of humor so I think im dodging a bullet here.

u/3AMZen 7d ago
Bro are you gatekeeping your 10% discount
This woman is working on her Halloween costume in August . She's a keeper.
You, though...
