Man Suing His Date For Texting During GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 2

A 37-year-old man from Austin, Texas took his date to a 3D screening of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 , but he's now taking her to court for texting throughout the critically acclaimed Marvel movie.

A Texas man recently took a woman he met online to see Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, but their first date quickly became their last due to the fact she was responsible for what he calls "

a first

date from hell" due to her checking her phone "10 to 20 times in 15 minutes to read and send text messages."



He reportedly asked her to stop multiple times only to be met with countless refusals, something she said was because she was texting a friend who had a bust-up with her boyfriend. "I had my phone low and I wasn’t bothering anybody. It wasn’t like constant texting." Once the date was over, he asked for his money - a whopping $17.31 - back, but she refused because he had asked her out on the date.



Now, he's taking her to court

instead

with a petition that her actions were in "direct" violation of the

theater

's non-texting policy and because the "defendant’s

behaviour

is a threat to

civilised

society." That's a tad extreme, but texting during a movie as good as this really is pretty damn unforgivable.



"I’m not a bad woman," she's since responded. "I just went out on a date." James Gunn disagrees:
