What do you think about talking to someone unexpectedly while having a meal alone?

Love at first sight at a restaurant

At first sight, the cozy ambiance of the restaurant enveloped Jenna in a comforting sense of ease. The soft glow of candlelight and the gentle murmur of conversation set the perfect backdrop for her evening. Across the room, she noticed Adam, whose confident demeanor immediately attracted her attention. As they exchanged glances, she felt a flutter of excitement.

As the evening progressed, Adam effortlessly kept her company, his witty banter and warm smile easing any nerves she had. However, over time, his tendency to get on her nerves emerged. He often seemed to take her for granted, assuming she would always be there without effort. Despite her growing feelings for him, she couldn't shake the fear that he might break her heart with his indifference.

As days turned into weeks, they gradually lost touch amidst their busy schedules and growing misunderstandings. Their once-strong connection faded, leaving Jenna feeling lost and uncertain.

Then, one unexpected evening, in the very restaurant where their romance began, Adam surprised Jenna by dropping to one knee and proposing to her. Despite the rush of emotions, she couldn't ignore the doubts that lingered. With a heavy heart, she mustered the courage to tell him to leave her alone, realizing she deserved more than being taken for granted.
