4950? 4475? 3210?

Have you ever been on a date and decided that it would be a nice gesture if you paid the bill just once?

Well, I have.

I was walking around Fort Langley with a super cute boy holding my hand as we strolled the rustic, old streets. He just so happened to mention that he was thirsty and I knew just the place. We walked in to this adorable, little coffee shop and I said that I would buy because he had been spoiling me like crazy lately. I'm talking showed up at my house an hour away from his with flowers and wine and then took me out for dinner. It was definitely my turn to buy.

As we approach the counter I start getting out the necessary means of payment and start thinking about what I am going to order.

"I'll have a raspberry-vanilla Italian Soda, and he will have an Essential Vitamin Water, please?!" "Your total comes to $6.98, on debt?" I nod, put my card in the machine and suddenly my mind goes blank. I whisper "I can't remember my pin." I try a couple different combinations and the message "PIN ERROR" pops up again and again. I look at my very cute date who is actually laughing at me. He yanks my card out of the thing and puts in his. He will great ease purchases our drinks and we leave the cafe.

Outside he is still laughing at me, making fun of me and teasing me about how I didn't actually want to pay for the drinks. I legitimately had to call my mom and ask her what the pin was.

Even though my mom told me that day what my pin was, I still can't remember it.

Note to self: Always be the lady, don't try to buy the drinks, unless you have cash.
