Oops! Not dressed for the place?

Walk back out?

Not quite. These people are professionals at generating and faking social awkwardness.

“What A Jerk”: Woman Leaves Date In Less Than 2 Minutes After Catching On To His Plan
That’s the worst date. Entitled People, Relationships

‘Underdressed’ woman praised for trusting her instincts and leaving bad date after just 2 minutes

Why do men try to ‘humble’ women?Manipulative men often try to “humble” women by taking them down a notch to make themselves feel more important. This is a form of “negging,” a manipulative dating tactic, in which someone offers mild insults or backhanded compliments to undermine the other’s confidence, to gain power over them. “He was testing you to see if he could control you,” Kim wrote in the comments. ¶“We are raised to tolerate so much discomfort and disrespect, it’s taken me years, but I’ve finally arrived at the ‘ZERO ALLOWANCES for a man’ stage in my life!” Anderson wrote in the comments. Hopefully, her strength will give the next person who encounters this manipulation the insight and courage to cut and run, too.

Manipulative controlling men are dating hideously cruel women at overpriced restaurants. All of a sudden, I don't like the atmosphere, I don't like the food, and I don't like the staff at those places.

Or maybe it's that couple seated at the next table over giving me the creeps.
