Man in Indonesia allegedly asks date to pay S$3 for dinner after getting rejected
A recent video on TikTok has sparked outrage when a man in Indonesia allegedly demanded his date to pay 40,000 Indonesian Rupiah (S$3) after his confession was rejected.
He also reportedly asked for reimbursement for his petrol on top of the meal cost.
Demanded payment over chicken noodles and iced tea
According to a TikTok video uploaded by user @ultramen_cantik, the incident was captured during a phone call between the man and his date’s older sister.
He could be heard saying, “Give me back my money, the food cost me 40,000 Rupiah”, referring to the chicken noodle soup and iced tea he had bought during their outing.

Confused, the OP asked why it cost so much, noting her sister hadn’t even requested it. Then, the man allegedly replied that it included his fuel expenses as well.
“Which older sibling wouldn’t be upset if their younger sibling was treated like this?” the in-video caption wrote.

“That’s a lesson for you guys,” she concluded.

Translation: Just give him the 40k, and don’t say anything to him so he doesn’t do something weird out of heartbreak.
Another warned: “Be careful, sis, if someone is heartbroken, they won’t care about anything”.

Translation: The guy is already heartbroken from being rejected, and on top of that, the girl is angry just because he asked for the 40 thousand back. Be careful, sis, if someone is heartbroken, they won’t care about anything, and I’m afraid something might happen to the younger sibling.
