The woman, with the username @katarinakitt, started by saying that every time she downloads Hinge, she is reminded of why she deleted it. But, in the spirit of giving things a second chance, she decided to try the dating app again.

Things got off to a good start. She connected with a guy who took the initiative to set up their date, and throughout their texting, he showered her with compliments. However, things became suspicious when she randomly sent him a picture of an outfit she was wearing at the game night she hosted.

She mentioned she was wearing a T-shirt with Drake’s album cover, “Her Loss,” and immediately, the guy labeled her as “one of those girls” and continued to say that he did not believe Drake was a great artist.

The woman ignored it, believing people are entitled to their opinions, and she was open to discovering the guy’s music taste. However, when they eventually met for their planned date, he was a gentleman, opening the door for her and pulling out her seat.

Everything went well until they started talking about their families. The guy mentioned he came from a family of tall people who were always midsized. The TikToker said it was the same with her family. However, when he spoke about his sister, he emphasized how she had gained a lot of weight since her high school days.

Immediately, the woman was taken aback by how he spoke and decided to share her thoughts on the natural changes in a person's body over time. She explained that it was unrealistic to expect his sister's body to remain the same as when she was 18.

The two decided to move to a second location, and as they stepped out and walked to the next bar, the guy moved to the side of the cars and let the TikToker walk on the other side. But he followed up his gesture by saying how unnecessary he found the whole thing because walking through the city meant you constantly have to switch with every street you walk on.

It quickly became clear to the woman that every kind gesture the man made was performative and accompanied by a comment. He wanted the woman to acknowledge every gentlemanly act he performed for her.

Despite the eyebrow-raising behavior, she still wanted to give the date a fighting chance. At the second bar, the woman noticed during their conversation that the man was trying really hard to show off his intelligence.

He spoke about things he believed she did not know, trying to make her feel inferior by name-dropping authors and artists and even pulling quotes from different books. But to his surprise, the TikToker was able to keep up with most of what he was saying.

They then got to the topic of classic movies, and the man was certain there was one that the TikToker had not seen because, according to him, many women he knew had not watched it. The woman patiently waited to be blown away, but he said, “The Godfather.”

This was one of the most famous films, and besides that, the woman had taken a film class, so she knew the ins and outs of the movie and knew several women who had watched it too. In an attempt to sound smart, the man started getting annoyed that his attempts to impress were not working, so he tried to change the pace by intensely kissing the TikToker.

The moment was uncomfortable for her, and she did not appreciate the advance, feeling it was too forward. He justified the act, claiming they were “vibing.”

This was another peculiar part of the date that the woman overlooked, thinking perhaps the man was just nervous or had misjudged the moment.

Before they met up, the woman made it clear that they could meet in the city because anything beyond that would be unsafe for her to travel back home to Jersey. However, the guy wanted to go out in Brooklyn, but she reiterated that she would be going back to her place after their date.

The guy tried to talk her into sleeping over, saying they could grab burgers at one of his favorite spots, go to his place, listen to music, and grab breakfast the next day. Again, the TikToker made it clear that nothing was going to happen between them, and he understood, insisting that he did not expect anything from their sleepover.

He started to sound convincing because she began thinking that going to his place was closer and she could leave first thing in the morning. While on the subway, they had been quiet for a few minutes, and since this was their first date, the TikToker thought she should make conversation.

However, the guy immediately dismissed her, portraying her as someone who was not comfortable with silence, which was not the case because she was just trying to further get to know her date.

Regardless, the dismissal was the last straw, so she kept quiet. A few moments later, he turned to her and asked, “Can I give you advice?” The TikToker was already skeptical but listened. He suggested she use less intensity when kissing.

The woman was surprised because she felt he was too intense during their kiss. But when she expressed her feelings, he laughed it off.

His place was just opposite the train station, so when they got inside, he played music and made himself comfortable. He asked the woman if she was going to stay fully dressed, to which she replied affirmatively, reiterating that she intended to keep things platonic.

He suggested they could still enjoy each other's company in different ways, which made the woman uncomfortable. So, while he was distracted, she quickly left the apartment.

People in the comment section praised her for going as far as going to his place when she saw all the red flags. Viewers advised her just to leave the date within the next five minutes to save herself time and energy.

As he was about to pay the bill at the restaurant, so they could go see a movie, he saw a man just randomly sitting across from them. The sight of him made the woman's face turn pale from shock, so the TikToker took the liberty to ask if there was something he needed. "Hey, man. Can I help you?" He said.

But he was not prepared for his response. "Yeah, that's my WIFE," the man said. After a few follow-up questions, he discovered that they had been married for seven years. Just as he was processing the situation, a little girl came from behind and sat on his date's lap, calling her "mommy."

So, in a few minutes, the TikToker found out his date was married and had a child, but as disastrous as it sounds, the day did not end there. He found himself sitting between the couple when the woman ran out of the restaurant.

The TikToker was now left with the sad husband, who couldn't stop crying. After paying for the bill, he decided the best way to cheer the man up was by going to see a movie as he had initially intended.

The two men brought the little girl along, and the husband paid for the movie tickets and the candy, and they all had a great time. At the end of the night, the TikToker asked if he made it home safely, and they stayed in touch. A few months later, he heard that the husband and his former date had gone their separate ways and finalized their divorce.

The TikToker described his friend as a pretty and interesting girl from Boston so it was no surprise, that the ex-husband and her started talking and hit it off. But as they were enjoying their night out, the ex-wife walked in with her friends.

The TikToker and his friend started to panic, thinking the situation would erupt into something bigger, but the ex-wife did not bother them. Instead, she went up to the girl and confessed that she messed up, adding that her ex-husband was a great guy who deserved the best, then wished them a great rest of the night.

Everyone was in disbelief and could not comprehend the odds of the ex-wife showing up at the bar they were at, But the rest of the night turned out great, without anything escalating. The ex-husband and the TikToker's friend ended up dating.

A year after that incident, the two are still together. The ex-wife knows of the new girlfriend, and she's met their daughter. The parents also have a great co-parenting relationship. The TikToker moved from Boston to Tennessee but still stays in touch with his friend and the ex-husband.

As the TikToker reflects on the unexpected twists of fate that led him to play Cupid, he is shocked that a bad date ended with his friend finding someone she connected with so much that they were working towards building a blended family.
