Is it OK to ask a date to hold your drink while you go to the bathroom? TikTok is divided.

• A TikToker said she ditched her date after he made her hold his drink and wait outside the bathroom.
• The clip received over 3.6 million views and over 4,800 comments who debated the reaction.

A woman who said she ditched her date because she had to wait for him outside the bathroom while holding his drink continued an ongoing debate about date etiquette on TikTok — although some viewers are skeptical of the story.

On June 24, a TikToker who goes by @winta_zesu and has over 246,000 followers on the app where she posts videos about life in New York City, posted a video that showed her filming herself holding a glass, while an on-screen caption said that her date had made her wait outside the bathroom and look after his drink, so she decided to block him and leave.

The upload received over 3.6 million views and over 4,800 comments, many that were confused by the TikToker's strong reaction to what they felt was a simple and ordinary date night request.

Others asked the TikToker what the person was supposed to do with the drink instead, as pouring it out would be waste, taking it into the bathroom was unhygienic, and leaving it unattended could be dangerous as it could be tampered with.

Some felt the whole thing was clearly satire, or the TikToker may be attempting to deliberately rile up viewers, pointing to similar videos posted by the same user, including one in which they said their date had fallen asleep during dinner. If agitation was the goal, it appeared to succeed, as multiple comments lambasted the uploader for her attitude, and wrote that the person she'd purportedly held the drink for had a lucky escape.

On June 25, the TikToker re-uploaded the same video, this time with a lengthier on-screen caption, where she appeared to give a little more context on the original, and wrote that her date making her wait "showed me all I needed to know on how he'll treat me in the relationship," and reiterated that she'd blocked him and left as a result.

The double-down was viewed 214,000 times and prompted a further 680 comments, the majority of which appeared to once again suggest they thought it was an absurd stance to take.

The creator did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment.

Dating etiquette has become a consistently contentious topic on TikTok in recent months, as viewers have debated how to navigate the landscape, from dating app behavior to the first meet-up.

Back in April, TikToker Clarke Peoples received over 400,000 views when she suggested a Hinge date was inconsiderate for inviting her out to drinks in a location that was much closer to him than her. The previous month, TikToker Dafna Diamant went mega-viral when she said she walked out on a dinner date after he declined to pay extra for cheese on his burger, ultimately backtracking and suggesting the whole thing was a joke, after she received criticism online.
