If you barely know a person and their already asking you for money, that's to me a major warning sign. If she just needed me to pick her up, that be a different story. It was not the case though, she was straight forward about yes, I give her credit in that regard. On the other hand though, it was not even a formal date. It was for a simple drink at a bar that was close by.
Hmm... Maybe she didn't want to go out with you and figured out, that if she simply knocked you back, you'd just keep bugging her. She might have known you were a cheap-skate and asked you for money, so that you'd f*ck off and never call her again - which worked flawlessly, it seems. And even if you did agree to pay for the babysitter - at least she'd only be wasting some of her time on you and not the money...
