Had to break out the credit card. Two dinners, four glasses of wine, and a shared dessert. $270. Without tip. One of the only times in my life I've ever tipped less than 20%. Couldn't afford it!
Never did that shit again. She wasn't impressed with the amount of flop sweat that came with the credit card. We joked about that after I recovered.
Aw, that's so sweet
Although I prefer going Dutch. I am a huge feminist. Men beware.

You Maltese? Yaaasss my family are from there.
To me though the Maltese cross is more of a national symbol and a cultural thing rather than a strictly "religious" icon. Sure it's linked, but there's more to it than religion to me. That's just me though.
I wouldn't get any religious tattoos I don't think. Back when I was in my weird "half Catholic, half Pagan" phase I considered a tribal-style cross, I still think it would look cool but it would mean nothing to me now.
Whenever I hear Maltese I immediately think of the dog breed
But then I remind myself we are talking about people.
