Eric seemed like an ideal gentleman on their first date—attentive, polite, and thoughtful. He brought roses and a gift, remembered small details, and insisted on paying, leaving her with the impression of a charming connection.
The illusion ended the next morning when he sent her an actual invoice listing the date’s “charges,” each tied to an odd repayment demand such as a selfie or a second date. Shocked, she shared it with her friend Mia, whose boyfriend humorously sent Eric a counter-invoice charging him for wasting her evening.
After Eric responded with angry messages, she blocked him. The experience became a funny lesson about hidden red flags and how true intentions sometimes show up only after the date is over.
