AUSTIN, TX — A Texas woman’s first date took an unsettling turn when her match presented her with a shocking, AI-generated glimpse into their “future” together. TikTok creator Lauren (@laurenhatesmondays) shared her bizarre experience, and the internet can’t look away. Her story, now viral with over 351,900 views, has left many questioning the strange ways technology is creeping into modern dating.

Lauren had casually known the man through social media before he asked her out. He seemed nice, looked good in his pictures, and appeared normal. Feeling optimistic, she agreed to meet him for dinner.

She dressed up, drove to the restaurant, and found him already seated, well-dressed, and charming. The evening started well—appetizers, conversation, and what seemed like a promising connection. But that illusion shattered the moment she returned from the restroom.

The AI Scrapbook That Sent Shivers Down Her Spine

When Lauren sat back down, she noticed a book on the table. This wasn’t a menu or a restaurant special—it was something he had brought himself. Flipping it open, she was met with page after page of AI-generated images of them together.

Lauren had never taken a single picture with this man in real life. Yet, here they were—posed as a happy couple, holding hands, smiling at the beach, even with imaginary future pets and children. It was an unsettlingly detailed “vision” of a relationship that had never actually existed.

The man, completely unfazed, flipped through the pages as if this was a perfectly normal thing to do on a first date.

Meanwhile, Lauren kept her cool, smiling and nodding through the rest of the evening to avoid escalating the already bizarre situation. But inside, she knew—this was the last time she would ever see him.

AI and Dating: A New Frontier or a Nightmare?

Lauren’s story is just one example of how artificial intelligence is shaping the dating world in ways that feel both fascinating and disturbing.

People are now using AI to enhance dating profiles, craft conversation starters, and even generate photos. Some go even further, turning to AI chatbots for companionship.

Experts argue that AI can make dating more efficient by helping people find better matches. But the drawbacks are clear—privacy concerns, authenticity issues, and, as Lauren’s experience proves, an unsettling detachment from reality.

Many people reacting to Lauren’s story expressed frustration over how difficult modern dating has become. Some noted that it’s impossible to truly know someone until meeting in person, while others joked that situations like this might make them rethink dating altogether.

For Lauren, this date was enough to put her off dating for a while. And after hearing her story, plenty of others might feel the same.
