A Girl Wanted to Take a Selfie with Me on Our First Date
I went on a first date last night with a girl I met recently . . . we met at a bar and had some drinks.
She’s cute, and we did our best to hit it off, but it was kind of awkward . . . there was no way to shake that ‘awkward first date’ vibe.
And then . . . halfway through the date . . . she whipped out her phone and tried to take a selfie with me.
I don’t know if she was trying to break the ice, or make things less awkward, or what . . . but it just made things worse. We eventually finished our drinks and the date kind of fizzled.
Is it weird to take a selfie with someone on a first date?
