First dates are supposed to be thrilling, romantic, and delightful experiences. Unfortunately, not all first dates go according to plan. Sometimes, they can be spoiled by awkward encounters, intrusive behavior, and even aggression. For one woman, her first date was an exceptionally pushy experience that left her feeling vulnerable and uneasy. However, rather than letting the incident define her, she decided to take control and get her payback. Her story is proof of the power of self-empowerment and standing up for oneself, even in the face of tough and uneasy situations.
It Was a Bad First Date
When the OP was 18, she lived a fifteen-minute drive from the Canadian border, and because she was legally able to drink and gamble there, their first date took place there.
“I couldn’t drink in the US but could in Canada and we wanted to go to a bar/casino.”
He Picked Her Up in His Little Sports Car
The pair hit the bar and casino, got a little tipsy, and played the slots. After a few more drinks, she realized she was getting to her limit.
“I got to a point where I was decently drunk and knew if I had any more alcohol, I would be out of commission.”
He Was Trying to Get Her Inebriated
She began to feel they should wrap up the evening, but her date had other ideas.
“I told him I was done drinking and wanted to start heading home. Instead of listening to me, he went and got us both another round and handed me a big Long Island Iced Tea.”
He Didn’t Respect Her Boundaries
She refused the drink and told him she couldn’t drink anymore, as she knew she was at her limit.
“He didn’t take too kindly to that and got pushy. He told me, “You have to drink it. I bought it for you. If you don’t drink it, you’re going to make me waste money.”
He Wouldn’t Take No for an Answer
The date began to turn sour, and despite her refusing the drink over and over again, he wasn’t having any of it.
“I got very frustrated and upset because I was alone with this pushy man in another country, and I was very upset with myself for getting into this situation.”
He Refused to Take Her Home Unless She Drank the Cocktail
The discussion quickly erupted into an argument, with the man giving her an ultimatum.
“He agreed to take me home after I finished the drink.”
She Snapped and Formulated a Pay-Back Plan
Annoyed with being effectively blackmailed by her date, she devised a little payback plan.
“I took the drink from him and chugged it. We got into his car and started for the border. It’s important to note that this guy was VERY proud of his car.”
He Bragged About His Car While She Tried to Keep the Nausea at Bay
Her date rambled on about his car while she focused on not letting her queasy stomach get the better of her.
“My goal was to make it through the border crossing at least, which was proving pretty difficult.”
She Timed Her Revenge Scheme Perfectly
She managed to keep from barfing until they had crossed the border, and when they did, she let him have it… literally.
“I turned in my seat to look him in the eyes and I told him, ‘I didn’t appreciate how you forced alcohol down my throat after I repeatedly told you no.’”
All Hell Broke Loose
She explained she knew her limits, and he had disrespected her. She then told him there was a reason she couldn’t drink anymore.
“Then, while maintaining direct eye contact with him, I started vomiting in his car.”
He Absolutely Freaked Out
She threw up EVERYWHERE – on the dashboard, the seat, the floor, etc. He went nuts, at which point she started crying and told him it was his fault.
“I told him he could either take me home or let me out of the car now, but I will call the police if he doesn’t proceed with one of the two options.”
He at Least Had the Decency To Take Her Home
He dropped her off at her house, and she never saw him again. Hopefully, he’ll think twice before pressuring someone to drink again.
