It’s no secret that blind dates can be awkward, but they can also be pretty expensive—especially when you try to finesse your date into paying for your entire family. That’s the hard lesson one woman had to learn when she invited 23 of her family members on her blind date to “test” the generosity of the man she was set to have dinner with…and it backfired to the tune of thousands.

I totally fucking knew this did not happen in the United States.
I guess I'm psychic... or, people are totally predictable as I've been saying my whole life.

Is her name Donald Trump? Or did she just graduate from Trump University with a degree in Grift

Why would she bring 23 family members with her on a date? I guess...this was in a country which the custom is women are chaperoned on dates? Good on her date for refusing to pay. One chaperone is sufficient...

She wanted payment in Liu.

I know a woman from a SE Asian island country. She’s divorced from a very wealthy man and lives a plush life in NYC. Her daughter has a fiancé who pays for EVERYTHING. The daughter is very well-educated and is successful in a lucrative profession. But this woman tags along on their dinners and the occasional vacation. The fiancé is wrapped around this girl’s finger and buys whatever she wants - she spends her own money on certain things, but he’s told to buy her other things, and if she wants her mother to have something, he will buy it, too. The daughter isn’t even that pretty, so I don’t understand how this guy is so whipped. There’s something shady about her, but I’m always nice and don’t ask any questions or let on that I’m suspicious of her. Gawd knows what kind of shit goes on there.
Anyway, this story reminds me of these two grifting women (who have their own money).

I'm confused. Why did the blind date guy even start the date when she showed up with her posse? I'd have been out of there before the menus even got handed out.

Forget it, Jake. It's Chinatown.

It made zero sense until I saw that it was a foreign country. It’s an impossible scenario in the U.S.

R9: Who are you describing?
Someone I know.
Named Sharon?
I’d rather not say.

Why did I guess correctly this happened in China?

R18 - And the worst of it all was that after $3100 worth of dinner, all 23 were hungry again an hour later.

Asian romantic comedies are actually documentaries- who knew!

She did this shit with a straight face? And her family was stupid enough to go with her?
