This is incredibly petty AND texting on a date is rude. The Statesman reports Brandon Vezmar who is 37 years old, is suing is date for………..$17.31. That’s the price of one Guardians of the Galaxy in 3D ticket.
Vezmar told the Statesman
“It was kind of a first date from hell,” he said. About 15 minutes after the movie began, Vezmar said, his date started texting on her phone. “This is like one of my biggest pet peeves.”
Vezmar said that she was on her phone 10-20 times in 15 minutes to read messages.
Here are some more plot points: 1. He asked her to stop but she didn’t. 2. He asks her to go outside to text and she did, but she also never came back. 3. She left in her car, when they came together, so he had no ride home.
The 35 year old woman he was on a date with told the Statesman,
“I had my phone low and I wasn’t bothering anybody,” she said. She was texting a friend, who was having a fight with her boyfriend, she said. “It wasn’t like constant texting.
Vezmar called her to ask for his $17.31 back but she refused because he took her out. Then, Vezmar contacts the woman’s younger sister which is why the woman plans to file a protective order against Vezmar.
This is a first date from hell.
Moral of the story is stay inside and just be with your cat or dog for the rest of your life. Forget about people.
