The “first milk tea of autumn” trend has caught the attention of milk tea lovers across many Asian countries. It started in China, where young people rush to buy milk tea on the first day of autumn and share it on social media. The belief is that if you buy milk tea for your crush on this day, your love will be sweet all season long. The hashtag “first milk tea of autumn” quickly became a viral keyword. This trend soon spread to neighboring countries with large milk tea fanbases.
Wanting to impress his crush, one guy took this trend up a notch. He ordered a second milk tea and left a sweet note saying, “People only get the first milk tea, but my baby deserves the second one.” Proud and confident, he believed this unique message would win his crush’s heart and that his feelings would be warmly received.
But things didn’t go as planned. The delivery guy revealed the harsh truth. After arriving, he snapped a photo of the girl’s doorstep piled with many pre-ordered milk teas. Posting the story online, the delivery guy sarcastically captioned it, “Your baby got eight milk teas in one morning, do you even know?”
The delivery guy’s reveal was like a cold splash of water. Turns out, the fall milk tea wasn’t his secret weapon at all. Thinking he was special, he was just one of many guys trying to impress the same girl.
This story isn’t rare. Many girls shared similar photos in the comments, showing they were overwhelmed with milk tea deliveries. Maybe these love-struck guys forgot that what really makes a gift special isn’t the item itself, but the sincerity and how it’s given. A simple gift from the heart can mean a hundred times more than repeated, generic presents.
Gamers, have you ever found yourself in a funny yet awkward situation like this guy?
