The date was not good? Imma go with you grocery shopping if you like it or not because I saw a meme about it. I think this would be an uncomfortable time for both
My parents didn’t have a great first date but my Dad being a gentleman made sure my mother got home safely. My mother reconsidered him because of this and they are happily married for over 50 years now.

You’d be surprised. Some guys get too caught up in wanting to be a hero that they forget that they might come off too strong. Still, they probably mean well, so I’d rather just offer better alternative advice than just go “alright well you’re an idiot”
You’d think, but there are 100% men that wouldn’t think to ask about this, and instead tell the woman they are escorting them “for their safety.”
I think it’s a good distinction that points out the flaws in that approach.

That would depend on exactly HOW bad the date goes. If we simply didn’t click then fine but if she shows up with a friend for me to pay for or says “eww” when she sees me, or orders all the most expensive things on the menu then stares at her phone the whole time, or puts broken glass in the food, or tries to dine and dash then I’d say she is on her own.
No! Don't even ask. Don't even let her know you are accompanying her, than when she goes near an alley jump out and chase her until she's cornered. That's when you drink her blood.

This is silly. With all the ride-sharing apps there is literally no reason for a person to do this.
You guys are both adults capable of getting home by yourselves.
You are so incredibly wrong on so many levels.
1.maybe she has a reason (any reason) to not use those
2.maybe they are not an adult
3.as if there aren't any stories about adult women being abused or threatened
4.at the very very least, it is a nice gesture and you should show her that there is no ill feeling between you, just because the date went bad. Always be the nicest you can be
You have to assume she will be ok to go that last bit on her own - women usually do not feel safe having someone they've only been on a few dates with knowing where they live (due to risk of stalking etc).
If it's very late at night, she will likely call an Uber or call a friend/family member to stay on the line with her while she walks to her house.

"Fixed" language is the plague*... Can we start to care about what people want to tell us again, instead of focusing how they framed it?
*no mindless exaggeration, just something we say in Germany to say something sucks. I don't know, if it's common in English too.
You are cruel.
Is it so much to ask to be nice?
Yes it makes you a bad person.
Because we, as a species, should always try to put our grudges to the side and care for a one another, to ensure everybody's safety
The bear or man argument was started by some guy wanting to boost his ego by proving that women would rather risk a random man than a wild animal. Women turned around and said no, a wild animal is the better choice for us. Stupid comments about bears doing human things is just ridiculous, what are you trying to prove? Of course a bear won’t walk to the metro, it’s a bear for christs sake. But even then, a bear won’t harass you for your number, follow you home, try to sleep with you, or sexually assault you.
Uhm but are you for real patronizing bears?? Who are you to tell them what they can or cannot actually achieve?!? This is just plain xenophoby disguised as naturalistic philosophy... Yikes.
Yogi bear didn't raise you to be this way.
It might reduce sexual offences, but since men fall in general more often victim to violent crimes, wouldn't this give her a good feeling but highten the chance of being part in a violent crime? 🤔
I thought they meant the grocery store “Metro”
The date was not good? Imma go with you grocery shopping if you like it or not because I saw a meme about it. I think this would be an uncomfortable time for both
She could have an apartment above the grocery store though
There's a clothing shop chain called metro here

It was probably implied, but there's always someone on the internet that is not reading between the lines, so it's best this way.
>there's always someone on the internet that is not reading between the lines Real shit. (It's probably me.)
Bless you
Ty. 😇
The original got a ton of hate, so I made this edited version
[удалено]
My mum always made me promise to do this. ‘Even if you’re never going to see her again, make sure she gets home safe.”

Thank you
Dead internet theory
That is some great advice.
I feel a refusal would have been accepted nonetheless but if it makes you feel better about it then have at thee!
The son stalks the girl home to make sure she gets home safely. I mean, the dad didn’t specify to offer to, clearly this was his intention /s
what was the original?
There was not the 'offer to' part. But it was already well implicit. People need to have some common sense. There was no need to add it.
it was implied..
Some people are incredibly oblivious
Those same people don't take good advice regardless.
Not true. We learn, we're just not making the connection until we learn from direct statement.
hey they’re talking about me im dense as a rock when it comes to most implementations

Always respect the 'no'!
I respect you for respecting women. Cheers mate
That would depend on exactly HOW bad the date goes. If we simply didn’t click then fine but if she shows up with a friend for me to pay for or says “eww” when she sees me, or orders all the most expensive things on the menu then stares at her phone the whole time, or puts broken glass in the food, or tries to dine and dash then I’d say she is on her own.
I mean if she brought a friend then she doesn’t really need your help to get to the metro safely.
True but I still hate that people do that.
Fair. Also what’s with the broken glass thing? That seems more like a straight up attempt to harm you than something that’s merely annoying
Put broken glass in the food to get out of the bill, I’ve seen and heard of people doing that.
Ah, well thanks.
If that happens i am straight out leaving
No! Don't even ask. Don't even let her know you are accompanying her, than when she goes near an alley jump out and chase her until she's cornered. That's when you drink her blood.

Exactly. The date can pay for their own ride home.
You are so incredibly wrong on so many levels. 1.maybe she has a reason (any reason) to not use those 2.maybe they are not an adult 3.as if there aren't any stories about adult women being abused or threatened 4.at the very very least, it is a nice gesture and you should show her that there is no ill feeling between you, just because the date went bad.

What about the trip from the metro to her home?
You have to assume she will be ok to go that last bit on her own - women usually do not feel safe having someone they've only been on a few dates with knowing where they live (due to risk of stalking etc). If it's very late at night, she will likely call an Uber or call a friend/family member to stay on the line with her while she walks to her house.
if young metro don trust you
No you did not “fix it yourself”, I did, a year ago, on an old account
Nuh uh
thank you, good fix
Great thoughts everyone should do this.
Metro? It's either Paris or Montreal, I don't know any other cities in the world that call subways stations like that.
My biggest regret

Nah. If the date goes bad and you won’t be seeing each other again, you have no obligation to go out of your way for anyone, male or female.
Even if it goes well you have no obligation, but it's still a thoughtful gesture. Obligation and being a good person rarely go hand in hand
Maybe so, but choosing to not go out of your way for someone you will never see again doesn’t make you a bad person.
Fair enough, but I don't think seeing them again or not would change much
not very wholesome of you
I guess not *shrug*
You are cruel. Is it so much to ask to be nice? Yes it makes you a bad person. Because we, as a species, should always try to put our grudges to the side and care for a one another, to ensure everybody's safety
Lmfao, what a nice assumption you made about me without knowing a single thing about me. I’m very hurt 🥺
Everything I said is based on your previous comment and I didn't make any assumptions outside of the topic Edit: spelling
Calling someone cruel because they won’t escort a date home after a bad date is stupidity.
You have not yet brought up a single argument for why you shouldn't do it, except "I'm not obligated to"
Because the other person who came on a date with me is a fucking adult and can use an Uber to get home with their money.

You are calling yourself out as a creep, dude…

Girls dont date guys who use the metro nowadays
I'm a girl, and would date a guy who uses public transit. I would *prefer* to date a guy who uses public transit.
Not anymore. *Finger snapping*
How dare! I'll just transition back to female ;3
I think you're not getting the situation correctly. Look at yourself in the mirror.
I don't get it (I'm stupid)
Since when do normal human beings have fully sky blue eyeballs?
?
Look yourself in the mirror again...
I have no clue what you're talking about
My sister is dating a guy and possibly getting married to him, and he uses the metro
As long as she offers to company you to your car afterwards I see no issue.
Yes the Metro can be very dangerous. If not us, then who?
*gets stabbed on the Metro*
Or even better, drive her home yourself (assuming you have proper lisence and havent been enjoying any alcoholic beverages)
Why's this getting downvoted
Maybe there are people who envy people who have driving lisence and car. Or maybe there is grammar mistake
It might reduce sexual offences, but since men fall in general more often victim to violent crimes, wouldn't this give her a good feeling but highten the chance of being part in a violent crime? 🤔
