Dear Lover, let's not let the bill come between us...

Dear Lover,

I’m really looking forward to our Valentine’s date.

The outfit is planned. The restaurant is booked. I’ve already stalked the menu and mentally chosen at least three dishes I absolutely plan on pretending to “share”.

I’m excited for the food. I’m excited for the wine. I’m excited for you.

There is just… one small thing. The bill.

Because nothing kills romance faster than two people suddenly staring at a receipt like it’s a maths exam they forgot to revise for.

Do we split it? Do we awkwardly reach for our cards at the same time like some sort of financial dance battle? Do we pretend to go to the bathroom and hope the other one pays? (Please don’t do this.)

Romance thrives on confidence. And honestly… so do great dates.

That’s why sorting payment smoothly matters more than people realise. When the bill moment feels easy, the entire evening ends on the right note.

No awkward pauses. No silent calculator energy. No “this might affect whether there’s a second date” tension.

Just good food, good conversation, and a night that ends exactly how it should.

So this Valentine’s, let’s agree on one thing: Let’s not let bills come between us.

Love, Rapid 💛

When you book with Rapid, you can pre-pay for your meal. Meaning the awkward discussion of "who's paying for what?" can be skipped entirely... or at least not be had on the date.

Valentine's Day is for romantic gestures... not mathematics.
