A woman said online that her recent blind date proposed splitting the dinner bill based on the number of meat slices each ate during a hotpot meal, sparking a widespread conversation about the state of modern dating in China.

The woman, who was not identified, shared on a recent Xiaohongshu post that, after the meal, which ended at around 11pm, her date proposed that the two go out for a drink. The woman, feeling it was too late, denied the invitation.
