‘I Swear to God, Bro, I Can’t Make This Up’: Man Says Date Asked If He Has Autism After Calling Him ‘Interesting’ All Night

A TikTok video uploaded in November 2025 by creator @777pres has garnered over 238,100 likes and nearly 9,000 comments after he recounted a first date that took an unexpected turn. The creator, known as Pres, opened the clip by declaring he does not think he will date again before detailing the encounter.

Date begins normally before repeated comments spark confusion

According to Pres, the date started well, with the pair doing what he described as cool stuff. However, the dynamic shifted when the woman repeatedly called him funny and interesting. Pres said he asked her what she meant by interesting, explaining that he felt the word could be read kind of differently depending on tone or intent. He pushed back on the description more than once.

She repeated the same answer before he pressed her again. When she finally gave in, she asked, Do you have autism?

Creator stunned by question; viewers react with similar stories

Pres said he was stunned, telling viewers, I swear to God, bro, I can’t make this up. He stated he did not have autism, though he added he might, before clarifying that any traits he might have would not be noticeable to someone meeting him for the first time. He ended the video by saying the experience left him hesitant to go on another date anytime soon, framing the moment as a turning point for how he views dating going forward.

Commenters responded with a mix of requests for more information and personal anecdotes. One user asked for missing context, writing, We’re missing the part where you tell us what you were doing or saying.

Another described a similar experience from a workplace setting: my coworker FIRST DAY I met them, asked if I have Aspergers!!? girrrrlll.

Someone else admitted to asking a similar question themselves in the past, writing, That’s something I’d say or ask on the first date (and I have).
