Dine and Dash?
07-21-2016, 09:58 PM
Dine and dash is butthurt beta behavior. You know the waitress/bartender gets totally screwed if she can't pay, right? The poster at the 4 Seasons had it right, pay for your drink and a very nice tip for the waitress and bounce, show you have class. Now the waitress is your ally in the future, she'll remember you. I know not everyone has worked in food service [or seen Reservoir Dogs famous opening] but these people live on their tips generally.
I have never heard of one of these lizards bringing 3-4 friends out with them, that's amazing. I guess I would tell her to come with me to another venue and if she balked I'd leave immediately. And if she did you know she's dtf.
Recently, I was with 3 friends at a popular club and we drank a lot over several hours. We accidentally left without paying because we all thought the other guy had paid, were drunk as hell, and waitress didn't bring a bill to anyone.
Next morning I get a msg from the host, he must have had my cell from before since I go there 1-2x a year. He said, not in an accusing tone, that we had simply forgotten to pay, and the the poor girl was on the hook [after all she could be scamming the club.] I asked for the total and it was like $1375, so I gave him my card and he charged me.
Not because I'm a hero, I'm not. Because it was the right thing to do.
The guy was so happy at the resolution, and I'm sure expected an argument or never getting called back. Next time we go, he's said he's giving us the best table and comping our first bottle. And I bet he & the waitress will tell the hottest chicks in the club to hang with us.

Not Dine and Dash specifically.
When the bill used to arrive, I would look them deadpan in the face and say "You get this one, I got the next".
I would say 2/5 would oblige or simply say 'no problem'.
They were also same age group if not older.
I used to do it for self-amusement but it actually worked quite a few times.
Generally though, I will just put cash on the table for my part or put my own part on the card, if their company was shitty.
Otherwise, I get it, I anticipate it already.
I stopped doing dinner with chicks I am not banging though as dinner is something I would like to share with someone I am really interested in getting to know.
I do the same with drinks, you get this round, I get the next.
It qualifies and buys some time (bitches wanna get their full value).
If their company sucks, I'll do a shot and part ways. I always got shit to do.
I have however gone to the movies and left halfway, saying I am going to the toilet.
My buddies and myself have our own WhatsApp group and will fake calls if required to get out of shitty situations.
I am very anal with my time.
This was all until last year.
Now with my girlfriend, we split most of the times but when not, I get the bill.
She always buys me stuff though which I appreciate. She knows I am picky and practical with gifts so she buys me stuff such as:
- electric drill
- slowcooker because I am lazy
- gym backpack
She calls them pink jobs and blue jobs.
She knows I will get the bill if not split; On the flipside, she cooks for me always and does my laundry amongst other 'pink jobs'.
Went on a bit of a tangent on the relationship side which isn't really relevant.
Long story short, I keep shit dutch. Make them work for that meal.
I generally am generous with my friends (male and female though) and in my culture, it's a very 'hosting', today me tomorrow you exchange.
NB: No US chicks involved in the above. Haven't actually bothered as I banged the US girls independently (club bounce).

I haven't done this for years, but it looks like I was always doing it wrong.
I always thought 'Dine and Dash' was something you did with the girl, not to the girl.
You get to be co-conspirators, sharing your wicked plan together, quietly figuring out the best way to do it, encouraging her to lie with a straight face. Private world + thrilling rush = intimacy forged.
Maybe I just dated too many Commie Chicks in Uni. Then again, girls were much skinnier back then, so could run, even in Doc Martens.
I'd never do it now. I'd feel sorry for the staff.

^^Curios as to what made you think you'd be responsible for everyone else's drinks. If they'd been there for an hour before, they likely had their own tabs.

I never "dine & dash"ed, because I think it is a butthurt behavior. However if the chick is unpleasant or there's no vibe, I'll inform her that we'll be splitting the bill. Dashing can cause problems, as the employees can be held responsible if she cannot afford the bill. Anyway I usually split 50/50 unless I already got something from her. For example, last week I invited 2 of my harem plates to a rooftop restaurant, bill around $500 and I paid the 2 times, because they are my best plates and never deny me sex. It goes both ways. If I still didn't bang the girl, I will do a split.

^ What do you do for a living?
I have never dashed before but if I'm not feeling a chick I will go for the split. Some of these girls out here are just serial dating to get free stuff. I really hate when a girl says she really wants to go to this or that restaurant. If you do then go out and buy your own meal.
For me it has come to the point where I don't even take chicks out to eat anymore. They think they can just order anything and not even have to worry about paying. It must be nice being able to do that. This bit me in the butt 2x this year. 2 dates with 2 hb9. They wanted to go to Houston's and Pappadeux respectively. Both dates cost over 100$ and I didn't even bang. Matter a fact after both dates I rarely even heard from the chicks.
So for me, I'll save dinner dates to chicks that I actually like and have had sex with. Until then I'll just do drinks. If a girl asks me about eating out I just tell them I don't eat out.

Exactly... a $50 no big deal in the city for cocktails... my point was it was not a victory... more like dodged bullets on several levels... a cautionary tale no matter how street wise you may be city banglers inventing new ways to best you all the time especially with what started as a simple text.

Not a dine and dash but same concept so will post here. More like "fly and ditch".
Situation - took a young lady 10 years my junior to a very expensive destination wedding in LA. I banged her out on Fri but she was annoying as shit all day Sat, including during the wedding. Left the wedding early because she was "hung over", which was an embarrassment. First thing Sun morning I texted my assistant - "unbundle our upgrades". She's like "seriously?" "Yes, and not only that, but put her in a middle seat and keep me in 1st class". My assistant had a thing for me at the time so was almost giddy executing my instructions. It was a rather nice moment seeing her walk by me in 1st class while I was being served my first cocktail of the day.

This thread is mostly stories about first / second dates --
Any spectacular dine & dash break-ups of longer term flings?
i.e. "Fuck this" + walk-out + [optional spill your drink on the table] + throw down ~50% in cash to keep it classy + never contact again
... on a 6+ month fling?

@456
I wish.
6 months into it, most guys are trying to keep it going, or blissfully unaware.
Chicks are the first to fall in love
First to want to be exclusive
And first to want to be out
Hallowed is the player who gets into something and ends it. The player m.o. is to avoid the tie down in the first place, because breaking up a relationship is too mentally and emotionally taxing.
