Woman Finds Message Written In Lipstick On Her Toilet After Kicking Out Hinge Date
Whether it's an online date or a blind date, everyone has a first date story from hell. As bad as yours was, however, did it involve a toilet and lipstick? Didn't think so.
One woman's first date story has now gone viral on TikTok and you could say it was down the drain right from the beginning.
The TikTok
Lulu, also known as @notsimpqueen7 on TikTok, recently went viral for her bizarre dating encounter which included a 15-minute long date, a secret message in lipstick, and a toilet.
The caption on the TikTok post reads, "my weirdo radar was spot on."
Late-Night Cleaning
The story begins with a friend filming Lulu as she sits on her bathroom floor and vigorously scrubs something off the underside of her toilet seat. As the two friends laugh over the misadventure, a caption on the TikTok and a follow-up video provide a bit of context.
"He wrote—in lipstick—on my toilet...run," she says.
The World's Shortest Date
So how did we get to this point? Over the course of two videos, Lulu explains that she had invited a man she'd met on Hinge on a date with her and some girlfriends at a local bar.
Shortly into the date, Lulu says she "wasn't feeling it" and, not wanting to ruin a fun night, she politely asks her date to call himself an Uber and leave.
Fake Ex-Boyfriends
Genuinely not wanting to hurt his feelings, Lulu concocts a fake story that's designed to let her date down gently. She tells him that she is unfortunately not comfortable continuing the date anymore because she's still in love with her ex-boyfriend.
Before leaving her place, however, her date leaves Lulu a parting gift.
Written In Lipstick
Before leaving her place, the man asks Lulu if he can use her bathroom. Shortly after, Lulu discovers that he wrote a message underneath the toilet seat in the hope that future dates would come across it.
Written in lipstick was the warning, "She is effing her ex...Run."
Call Me, Maybe
What's the final kicker here? Not only did Lulu's date leave a message in lipstick, but he also left his phone number.
Lulu acknowledges she could have handled things better but speculates he did this so any future men who come over to her apartment can call him and get details regarding why their promising first date quickly spiraled down into the toilet.
Team Toilet Date
With over 300,000 likes and 3,000 comments, Lulu's bizarre first date quickly went viral and users had a lot to say.
Some people thought there was missing information from Lulu's story and so supported her date. They thought that if he felt leaving a message to other men in a spot where only guys would see was needed, then Lulu herself must have been giving off the bad vibes.
Team Lulu
Most users, however, were on Lulu's side and said that her date was immature, adding that going above and beyond to write a warning message in lipstick was red flag behavior.
Others said that she handled the situation appropriately and shouldn't have been forced to hang out with someone she didn't want to, hence kicking him out of her apartment was justified.
The Moral Of The Story
The moral of the story? Whether you're on the side of Lulu or her toilet date, it's a lesson that not only should you always trust your gut instincts, but that y'all need to clean your toilets more often.
"His reaction proves your instincts were correct," one user commented. "Good decision."
