Was I Wrong Telling the Person in Front of me at the ATM That it Wasn’t Working Because She Had to Withdraw $400 or Less?

I went to withdraw money from the ATM inside a grocery store. The older lady in front of me was there for awhile inserting her card, pushing buttons, taking out her card, then repeat 7 times or so.

After that 7th time, I watched what she was doing to see why it was taking so long. I noticed she was trying to withdraw $2K when the limit is $400.

I said from my position 10 ft or so away - Hey boo, punch in $400 or less and you’ll be able to withdraw your money.

Thats when she started screaming from the top of her lungs for security, asking me why I was looking at her transaction, she doesn’t feel safe, I must be an entitled bitch.

I just said - mam, I was trying to help you.

I finally gave up and started to exit when security started running towards us. I followed them a little ways back towards her just to say I was trying to help her, she needs to withdraw $400 or less to get her money.

They let me leave, I wasn’t arrested or questioned. But, I’m still trying to wrap my head around the whole situation.

I’m 40 yr old female, she was in her late 50’s/60’s. Most older women love me, but not this chick.

I probably shouldn’t have been looking at her transaction, but the dollar amount you’re requesting is displayed pretty prominently. Anyone could glance and see what the issue was.

On another note, what is up with all the Monkey flairs? What am I missing?

So my wife’s going to a gala tonight — as her client’s “date.”

I’m 44 and my wife is 44. She works on an art advisory committee, so attending galas, events, and client meetings is part of her job. She often meets clients for coffee, lunch, or dinner, and I don’t always know the details and that’s completely normal because it’s part of her work. She’s always professional, transparent about her friendships, and I trust her judgment completely. Recently, she mentioned she’s going to a gala with a friend, S. He’s a wealthy client she met about a year ago, and they became friends professionally. She introduced me to him once, and he seems like a genuinely good person. He invited her as his “date” to this gala, and my wife said it’s fine. I did ask her though, if she’s actually going as a “date,” and she just laughed and said, “Date doesn’t always mean romantic.” She said it’s important for her she could get networking and meet new people. Then she smiled and said, “If I get into this gala next time, I won’t need to take that man with me, I’ll take you...

I accidentally started a fake relationship with my dentist’s nephew and now I have to bring him to my cousin’s wedding

I swear this isn’t as insane as it sounds. Or maybe it is. I don’t know anymore. So I had to get my wisdom teeth pulled last month. All four. It was horrible. I cried when they put the numbing stuff in. Not from pain, just vibes. The dentist was this sweet older guy, probably in his 60s, super gentle, gave dad energy. Anyway, after the whole thing I’m in the waiting room with a mouth full of gauze, looking like a bloated chipmunk and trying not to drool on myself. This guy walks in. Maybe 20-ish. Tall, curly hair, kind of goofy looking but in a hot way. He smiles at me and goes, “You look like you fought a squirrel and lost.” I flip him off. With love. Apparently he’s the dentist’s nephew. He was dropping off lunch or something, I wasn’t listening. I was trying to keep my face from leaking. He sits down and starts chatting with me while I wait for my ride. I don’t say much because again, gauze goblin. But I must’ve made an impression because later that night I get a message on Instagr...

I accidentally went on a date with someone who thought I was their other Tinder match

So, a couple months ago I matched with this girl on Tinder. We had a pretty normal convo, nothing crazy, but eventually she asks me to grab coffee. Chill, right? We meet at this cute local spot, she gives me a quick hug, and right off the bat she says: “Wow, you look even better than your hiking pics!” Problem is… I don’t hike. Like, I don’t even walk briskly. I just nod and laugh it off. We keep talking and she starts referencing stuff that makes zero sense. “Your dog is so cute—what was his name again? Bentley?” I don’t have a dog. Never have. Then she mentions how I told her I used to live in Colorado. Again, not me. I’ve never even been west of Kansas. So now I’m trying to figure out if I have early onset memory loss or if she’s mistaking me for someone else entirely. Finally, mid-latte, I ask, “Hey, just to clarify… what’s my name?” She looks confused. “Jake?” Friends… my name is not Jake. We just stared at each other for a solid five seconds before she burst out laughing. Appare...
