    Or maybe, just maybe, we should love people as they are and not make up stupid societal bullshit to follow for an indeterminate amount of time. I get you don’t want to let out all the crazy before you know someone, and maybe this really is too much up front and your point stands. But I don’t think it’s that grevious. Maybe they are cheap, or maybe they wanted to show how skilled they are, or maybe they thought “this is really cool to me, I hope she finds it cool too”.

    Either way it’s clear she’s not a fit for him. But that’s kind of a stupid note to end things on. I hope he finds someone more tolerant and understanding that takes an interest instead of being judgy and “weirded out” by essentially a hobby.

      Nah. Being cheap is a frustrating personality trait.

      Source: obsessively cheap, penny pinching father. Just pay for the damn nuggets like a normal person.

        Maybe he’s not cheap at all. Maybe he just wants to stick it to the Man in small ways, with 30 nuggies as a reward for his hard work.
