Evidence

Dinner start

Maya and Theo had easy conversation before the notebook appeared.

Checklist reason

Theo said the checklist helped him date intentionally and avoid guessing later.

Checked boxes

Maya became uncomfortable when Theo started marking answers during dinner.

Open the receipts

Maya liked Theo's messages.
After a week of good conversation, dinner felt like a natural next step.

This might actually be fun.
Dinner started well.
They talked about food, weekend plans, and the one plant Theo had somehow kept alive.

Okay, you are fun in person too.
Then Theo opened a notebook.
He said it helped him date with intention instead of guessing later.

I have a few things I like to ask.
At first, it was almost funny.
Maya answered, hoping the notebook would disappear once the ice broke.

Is this a bit?
Then he started checking boxes.
Maya realized she was not just talking. She was being organized into categories.

Are you scoring this?
Theo called it honest.
Theo said he was trying not to waste anyone's time. Maya said the date needed a person, not a form.

I came to dinner, not a screening.
I am trying to be clear.
Their friends split.
Some said Theo was clear about what he wanted. Others said a checklist needs consent before dinner becomes data.

Put it away.
At least he was honest.
So where do you stand?
They have to decide whether Theo puts the checklist away, keeps using it, or turns the questions into something mutual.

How should this date continue?
