Young Waiter Shared A Weird DM He Got From Mature Woman, And It Went Viral

Is this the equivalent of harassment or simply a very bad pick-up line?

A restaurant shift turned awkward fast when a young waiter got a message he probably never expected to see. What started as a friendly interaction with an older customer quickly turned into something far more uncomfortable.

TJ, who goes by @troyhibler_17 on Twitter, said he met a mature woman while working at a restaurant in San Marcos, Texas. She later posted a photo with him on Facebook and followed it up with messages that made the whole exchange feel wildly inappropriate.

By the time he shared the screenshots, people were already reacting hard to the woman's behavior. Read on. Screenshot of a social media DM, mature woman messages a waiter.Twitter

TJ politely replied, “You’re more than welcome! Thank y’all for coming through today.” She responded, “Anytime, my love,” with a winky emoji at the end. It would have been great if this was the end.

Later that evening, the woman sent another message, writing, “By the way, I left with wet panties; thank you lol.”

That was the point where the whole thing stopped being awkward and started looking like a real problem.

It also echoes the friend who flirted with your partner, and you’re wondering if confronting her makes you overreact.

I don’t think we want to know what her next message might have been.

TJ described both screenshots, saying, “It was an interesting day…”

This is clearly a case of harassment by a strange woman whose table he served at his restaurant. People found it hard to believe that this woman would dare:

Unfortunately, this is not unusual. Some research shows that a staggering percentage of people, from both genders, would engage in harassment or worse if they felt there would be no consequences. Let’s not allow these kinds of actions to go without repercussions.

Some would argue that this is just an unfortunate and distasteful pick-up attempt and not harassment. Objectively, it is borderline, but what if the roles were reversed and a woman was on the receiving end?

Either way, TJ’s screenshots made the situation impossible to brush off.

After that “wet panties” DM, see the $190 dinner tipping blowup over 20% here: the date who called it “giving her the ick” for not tipping.
