Be polite to the staff at the restaurant. If it's gonna be a place where you leave a tip, leave a good one. One of the easiest ways to identify an asshole is how they treat the waiter and what kind of tip they leave. Oh sure, try and upstage me why don't you?

Compromise: Punch out the waiter and leave a five percent tip.

I don't know the proper etiquette that comes with tipping such as how much.

I don't know the proper etiquette that comes with tipping such as how much. We've always tipped 20%, but anything lower than 10% (15% nowadays, really) seems...dickish.

Update: So being anxious and excitable, I sent her a few texts. Basically asking how thing are going and all that. Well she was slow to respond when she did, but than she stopped. So I started worrying that I was annoying her. I probably sent her about 4 over the course of a week or so. Just know you, trying to see how shes doing. I started wondering if I was annoying her. Well guess who shows up at work Friday? Things got awkward. We worked in different rooms, and when we'd walk past each in the hall, I would say a quick "hey" or "Whats up" and feel really stupid. And she wouldn't really respond. This was eating at me for the rest of work. So its about 5 mins till I clock out, I go up to her and ask her if my texts are annoying her. And she says "yes". Okay, so I said "I'll keep it down" and she sounded kind of sarcastic and said "sure". Now I was feeling pretty pissed when I got back home. My suitemate wondered if there was a language thing (shes French after all), and maybe she didn't quite understand, or I was interpreting her as uninterested. Basically it looks like this isn't going anywhere. So I'll have to look else where. Thanks for reading ya'll

On your update, I've had this happen to me several times and seen this happen to friends too. I really don't understand why people, women do this. It bothers me the most when the chick was the one who starts talking to me.
