The ex-fan asked the American woman to return the money for the dates: opinions on the web were divided
The Milwaukee woman sparked a debate on Twitter by posting a screenshot of a post in which she said a man demanded compensation from her for a failed and short-lived romance. In the screenshot, the humble romantic is designated only as "CK", writes NY Daily News.
A message to Alex Kolbot begins with “Hi Alex, I hope you are doing well,” then her information about Venmo is requested.
“We won’t see each other again, and it’s fair to ask you for equal pay for the dates we went on,” the request continues. “I think it was 3 times we went to bars/restaurants and I paid for both of us each time.”
CK calculates that "$35 is more than fair" for Colbot's use, adding, "I see a beautiful girl in you."

It seems unlikely that he will be able to receive funds anytime soon.
“In my understanding, this is impudence,” she wrote on Twitter with a couple of screenshots of correspondence with SK.

Colbot did not respond to a request for comment, but several Twitter users weighed in on the matter—some of whom believe she should consider compensation.
"I can't imagine being that petty but what's the problem, he's clearly broke and not getting any benefit from you," one social media user wrote.
Others believed that you had to pay to play.
“Dating is like gambling, you invest your time, money, whatever, and sometimes it doesn't work out and you leave empty-handed,” tweeted a woman who sided with Colbot. — (CK) made the decision to spend the money and now he’s angry that he didn’t win? The casino doesn’t owe you anything.”

Several commentators suggested that the UK should have set the terms of the three dates in advance, rather than trying to collect money after the fact. One person noticed that we all live in difficult times.
“I've never done this, but I think it's normal,” Al Bunim wrote on Twitter. — SK managed to say something uncomfortable, was honest about what he hoped to achieve, and did it with respect. I think you're shaming this guy. Have you forgotten how many people were left unemployed, cold and hungry?
