Stories of Walkouts: Vignettes of Assertiveness
The article chronicles twelve distinct stories, each shining a light on moments where a nice guy realized that his date was crossing a line. Here are a few notable scenarios:
The Disrespectful Conversation: One man described a date that quickly soured when his date received a phone call and became rude to both him and the staff at Starbucks. Recognizing this behavior as disrespectful, he left without further engagement.
Self-Absorption on Display: In another scenario, a date revolved entirely around one woman's grievances about work, leaving little room for mutual conversation. Frustrated, the man left after no effort was made to engage with him.
