Fenton's not alone, either. Last September someone shared a post-date message exchange that ended with the man asking for the money back for a drink he'd paid for, and last November British dating blogger Lauren Crouch tweeted about a date who demanded she pay him back his £3.50 ($4.64) after he bought her coffee.
