‘Run’: Woman receives chilling note on date

The woman’s date had gone to the bathroom when she was handed a grim written warning from a stranger.

Dating can be tricky, as you can sometimes be blind to the red flags sitting right in front of you.

But one woman was lucky when a kind stranger spotted the obvious warning signs coming from her date and decided to let her know.

Posting to Twitter, a woman called Hadia shared her dating story with her followers, saying she had gone on a date in a coffee shop.

When the man she was seeing went to the bathroom, a man from another table slipped her a note, which she uploaded a photo of to the social media site.

“I had coffee with a guy yesterday. When he went to the bathroom, the gay guy sitting behind me passed me this note,” she wrote alongside the snap.

The note read: “Too many red flags. Run. Be safe girl.”

The tweet has since gone viral, with many praising the stranger and hailing him as a hero for spotting something that Hadia couldn’t.

One person commented: “I can’t help but wonder how bright red those flags were for a complete stranger notice AND write a warning note. Big yikes.”

“As bright as my red nails,” Hadia replied.

“It honestly wasn’t THAT bad …. until after he came out of the bathroom. Everything he said after the note was a major red flag.”

One person added: “Not all girls are great at picking up on the signs. I’ve missed a few, so to have an outsider who is objective to the scenario notice these signs, it just may have been a genuine warning.”

Many people said they hope she’d taken his advice, as it could have very well saved her life.

Other people took the opportunity to share their own experiences of relationships gone wrong.

“I wish I’d had someone pass me a note like that when I was 18. My whole life might have been different,” one woman wrote.

“I once went on a drink date and the bartender was super nice to me and kind of rude to my date. I remembered wondering if that was a red flag. Turned out it was and he was right,” said another.

Someone else added: “I wish someone told me this before I got into my last relationship. Take his advice girl!”
