Woman is horrified by what a man says to her on a first date
USA - This one sentence caused her such horror that the first date was already ruined. Melinda (35) from the USA had naturally dressed up to please her date. But the man had nothing better to do than to immediately make a negative comment - even when greeting her.
The 35-year-old vented her anger in a video on TikTok on November 11. In the clip (see below), she explains via subtitle: "I had a date in this outfit today, super cute, right? You know what the first thing he said to me was? 'Wow, you really have a lot of gray hair. But I looked really cute."
The video has since become a viral hit. In addition to 1.6 million clicks and a good 145,000 likes, the many comments are particularly striking. More than 17,000 users have commented on the incident so far.
Many of them show solidarity with Melinda, but are also unable to understand why her date had to use such an abusive tone right at the beginning.
In an interview with Newsweekthis week, the TikToker explained why she was particularly shocked in this case .
Melinda explains her failed date in a viral video
"I had told him beforehand that I was letting my gray hair grow out," she told the US magazine. Incidentally, the reason why the single lady is back on the prowl is a rather sad one.
"My mother died recently and she always wanted to see me happy in a relationship. I think that's part of my motivation for dating someone now," says Melinda.
After the failed first date, however, she can also see something positive about it. "It was a relief to know that so many other people thought it was rude or weird too and that I wasn't being overly sensitive," she told Newsweek.
Her conclusion isall the more curious: "It was a fun experience to have a viral video. I'm just glad I looked good in it".
