Matched with a girl who sent me a 12 page manifesto on date 2

So last Thursday I match with this girl on Hinge, we chat for a few days, seems normal. We meet for coffee at a Starbucks near my place in Austin, and the first hour is fine. Then she pulls out a binder full of printed pages and says "here's my rulebook for dating me." It had like sections on texting response times, acceptable restaurants, and even a clause about what to do if I see her ex in public. I just sat there nodding for 20 minutes then made up an excuse about my dog being sick. Has anyone else gotten something this extreme on a second date?

Yeah honestly it feels like people are writing full contracts for relationships now instead of just... talking through stuff as it comes up. I see it with friends too, everyone wants a bullet point list of expectations before things even get going.

A binder's a bit much for date two though.

Did she at least put page numbers on that thing?
