Woman left horrified after man orders milk on their first date

A woman has divided opinion by sharing her disgust over a man ordering a glass of milk while on a first date.

Anyway, in this woman’s case, it’s that her date ordered a glass of milk when they were first meeting up.

Sharing her thoughts on Mumsnet, the woman said: "Went on a first date with a guy I met online last night, went out for dinner.

“When I got there I definitely found him attractive. However when it came to ordering drinks he ordered himself a glass of milk.”

She obviously wasn’t expecting that choice, describing it as a ‘turn off’.

The woman continued: "I've honestly never came across someone doing that in a restaurant and I just think it's really odd and really put me off him.

“I have tried to work out why this was such a turn off and I can't come up with a reason it just made me feel a bit yuck.”

Fair enough, some things just do make you feel like that.

She then turned to the community, asking where she was being unreasonable – AIBU, in the parlance of the website.

“It’s just so odd on a first date I feel,” she said.

Luckily, there’s a whole group of people who agree with her, describing the choice as ‘unusual’ and ‘weird’.

One said: “It’s childlike. Would put me off too.”

Another wrote: "I think it depends where you were and what you were eating - maybe with curry it isn't that odd, equally burger and milkshake is acceptable so milk isn't a massive step if he doesn't like the texture of a thick milkshake.

“Fancy restaurant having steak or pasta then milk is a bit weird!"

It certainly is.

However, others weren’t so sure, with one person commenting: "Wouldn't bother me. Better than ordering alcohol. Green flag from me!"

Another said: "Maybe he just prefers milk. I do too when at home, never ordered it with a meal so get why you might think it's odd but not the worst thing someone could do.

“It's only milk, he didn't order a pint of blood."

Well at least that’s something.
