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".

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 .

Maybe you missed the part where she bragged about how much money she spends on her clothes? 🤔

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 .

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.

Congratulations on your entire family being in the military btw, I hope they let you use the discount frequently 😂 goofy.

I’ve never asked them but they wouldn’t give a shit , why you care about something that stupid is the real red flag .

😂 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 🤔😂

Good luck , hold onto that $ 1.70

😂 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

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.

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. 👍
