Model slammed after ghosting date for asking her to hold his drink

A woman is facing backlash after claiming she left her date and blocked him for asking her to hold his drink while he went to use the bathroom at a bar.

Social media is rife with stories about horrible first dates. For instance, a man went viral after driving eight hours for a first date — only to get ghosted by the gal, who’d mislead him about her intentions.

Now, another dating story is taking the internet by storm… but this time, viewers aren’t on the poster’s side.

Fashion model and actress Winta Zesu has sparked a massive debate after sharing her first date experience with a guy who she promptly blocked for something many viewers are arguing wasn’t worth dumping him over.

Model under fire after blocking date for asking her to hold his drink

In an Instagram reel, Zesu filmed herself in a venue in New York City while a man walked into a room behind her.

The clip was captioned: “POV: Your date made you wait outside the bathroom to hold his drink and wait so you blocked him and left.”

Zesu’s video quickly garnered backlash online, getting noticed by none other than the internet’s resident good guy gym bro, Joey Swoll, who made his feelings on the matter quite clear in a scathing response.

“If I’m ever out with someone, and they leave to go to the restroom or anywhere, I always watch and protect their drink,” Swoll said in a TikTok that’s garnered over 9 million views.

“But you’re too good to do that for him, even though he would do the same for you,” he continued. “If you ask me, you did that man a favor by leaving. You need to do better.”

Commenters were quick to agree with Swoll, with one writing, “That man dodged a HUGE bullet!”

“I would 100% do that for a man, because I hope he’d do it for me,” another wrote.

“What’s crazy is she thought she was above a simple act of kindness,” yet another said.

This is far from the first time that Zesu has come under fire for her content. In fact, the model is quite famous on the internet for her outrageous videos — in one of which she claimed that she was kicked out of a restaurant for eating a burger with a knife and fork.
