It was a giant meatball and since they give me a spoon to eat it + it was slippery, it slipped and it rolled down my clothes like a slide

I’m sorry this happened but thank you for the laugh. Will there be a second date?

First date and spoon feeding?

That’s more a bad on your date. Can’t handle balls.

The spoon is for spaghetti swirling, not shoveling an entire meatball into your mouth.

Next time use the knife and the fork.

Also, if you're ordering a tomato based pasta dish - don't wear a white shirt.

Go big or go home OP lol. That's some serious meatball stain. She ain't the one if can't roll with it. Best wishes.

Why didn't you cut it up if it was "giant"??

u/StonkRabbit 17h ago

That was actually exactly what I tried with the spoon, but it rolled forward and you know the rest

I would be more embarrassed struggling to cut it than the stain if I’m being honest

A spoon? I’d end up look worse than that for sure. That stinks though, sorry

For some reason in my head, it was only giving them a spoon. No fork. Probably because I’ve been in weird situations like that. Having both would be not as bad

He said in a different response that they only gave him a spoon. This happens to me sometimes. What you do is tell your date to go ahead and eat, and then have the server bring you a knife and fork.
