This story may be a little long, but bear with me....lol
In the middle of November, there is a woman that met me at the mall. After met, we sat down somewhere and we talked and try to get to know each other. After we talked for about 20 minutes, she then asked me if I could get her something to eat. She had been nice and good company, so I decided to help her out and got her a hot dog, fries, and a drink. We both had to go somewhere, and I gave her number so she could call me sometime and try to get to know each other. A few days she later, she hasn't called me one time.
A month later, she spotted me at the mall again. We sat a table and talked and I confronted her on why she didn't call me. She then told me that she didn't have a phone at the time, and she couldn't use no one else's phone (don't know why though). But I seen that she has her cell phone on her. So I asked for her number and she gave it to me. I had a feeling she was up to something. So I decided to pull a trick. I told her that I was about to call one of my other friends, but I actually called her phone. The funny thing is that I when I called her number, I didn't see hear her phone vibrate nor heard her phone rang. Plus after I called it, someone picked up on the other end of the phone and then told me I got the wrong number. Then I realized that she gave me a fake number. I didn't say nothing to her afterwards, but then she got the nerve to ask me am I going to get her something to eat? Like the post tile said, "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool we twice, shame on me." So I told her no, and she said, "things like that is why I don't have a girlfriend because you can't buy food for a woman." Then we left our own ways afterward.
And then a few days ago, she caught up to me again at the mall. I explained to her why did you give me the wrong number? And then she told me that it wasn't, and she didn't have a phone then. I known she was lying because she had a phone when she gave me "her number." And then again, she asked me if I could buy her a salad from the food court. I told her and I am not going to buy her a salad, and she explained that she just eat salads. That is another lie!! I bought her a hot dog, fries and a drink, and she ate it all up! She kept begging and asking me, but I stood my ground, and I refused to give in. And then she called me fat and then told me again that I will never have a girlfriend because I don't know how to treat a woman. If I don't buy a woman anything to eat, I don't know how to treat a woman. She was mad and nearly cursed me out in the process. Then we left and went our own ways again.
What really sunk to me was that she said that I don't know how to treat a woman. Now I haven't been in a relationship, but I strongly believe that I can treat a woman real good.
I am not going to treat a woman if great respect if she asked me to buy her food every time we talked. I mean within 15-20 minutes of knowing each other, she asking me to buy her a meal, and every time we had a conversation, she was asking me to buy me food. Plus, she lied about the phone number deal, and she came up of bunch of different stories for her explanation just didn't seem to add up. I am usually a giving and friendly person, but when I talk to her, I definitely made an exception to that. And now I feel like I am the bad person.
She look attractive and she seemed nice and sweet, but looks can be deceiving, and I found that out the hard way.
Do you guys think I did wrong for refusing to buy her food the other times? I had a feeling I did the right thing, but sometimes I feel bad about it.

Silentsporty,
This whole food thing can get outta hand. I was fooled into thinking I had to buy a woman a nice meal on the first date. Did that several times and it cost me a load. No more, bro! It's OK to treat someone you've met to a beverage or a lite snack, especially if you've just met. If things are going great, go for it, spend some $$$ and have a good time if you can afford it. Otherwise, move along at a slow pace, especially when it come to spending money on someone you hardly know.
You sound like you are a gentleman and ready to do the right thing. Keep your head and keep your money in your pocket for a while. Don't let any woman tell you you don't know how to treat a lady when you have these brief meetings. And run, run, run from any broad who stiffs you with her phone number.

what the f*ck angel? I dont know how that ties in with his situation but ok.
I dont think you should feel bad at all, she was totally using you for a free meal. She obviously wanted nothing to do with you personally. I think thats bullshit. She probably went off to all her friends & bragged about it.
Dont worry about it.

Dear, you done the right thing. Apparently she was waiting on someone else and figured that she could con you while she waited or else she got stood up. You ave no reason to feel like a bad person nor do you have any reason to feel anything but good about it. You done what any guy/woman should do in that situation.

Thanks for the advice everybody.
It is that I am a usually a helpful and nice person, and I have a hard time saying 'no' to people. I stood my ground and kept saying no which was for me, and then I get insulted for it. Fortunately, I only spend $5 on her, and it could have turned out to be a lot more. The bad thing is that when I go to the mall, she always seem to find me, and I never look for her. And unfortunately, this probably won't be the last time I will ever see her.
Thanks again, guys. I felt bad at first, but now I feel better about the decision I made.

@ stephentrue, you are so right... you have good sincere women and you have women who use men for free food, drinks, movies etc...
to piggyback off stepentrue
Rule #1 Never go overboard on the first date. This is "a getting to know each other" date.
some women like a free meal and will use men. many men make the mistake of spending too much money and trying to hard to impress a woman and then get fustrated when they don't get second dates...
Rule#2 ALWAYS, ALWAYS, PAY ATTENTION TO ACTIONS EVEN THE SMALLEST DETAIL. because that small detail can bite you in the ass later. pay attention before, during, and after the date. this is critical. or you will be complaining later.
to the original poster, first mistake, you meet a girl whom you don't know from adam and she's asking you for a free meal    you don't even know if she has a boyfriend. you don't know anything about her. she sent you a bad sign right off the bat. then she created her own selfish save face behavior trying to make you look bad when it's not you it's her. you have to know what to say IMMEDIATELY WITH WOMEN LIKE THIS. you have to check them properly. if you don't, they will make you look weak in the process.

She was a pretty attractive lady, but looks can be deceiving. I should have known she was up to something, when she asked me for food within 15 minutes.
As if for she had purple lips, thankfully no!
