Atlanta woman says ‘attractive’ man at CVS asked for her number. She almost said yes—until she saw what was in his shopping bag
There’s no shortage of ways a flirtatious exchange can go wrong. You might not be attracted to the person, they could say the wrong thing or just be a plain bad conversationalist.
For one Atlanta woman, it was what was in the man’s CVS bag that made her reject him.
Flirt Gone Wrong
In a TikTok with 33,000 views, content creator Hannah Hoffman (@havanity) recounts a run-in at her local CVS.
Hoffman explains that she was picking up her medication when a man stopped her on her way out.
“Excuse me, excuse me, miss.” She turns around. “Very attractive gentleman,” she says.
“So I’m like, all right fine, I’ll entertain this. Let’s see what he has to offer.”
The man tells her she’s beautiful and asks for her number. She contemplates it for a second and then looks down at his CVS bag. It’s translucent and she can see that there’s a Plan B inside, leading her to believe he already has a partner.
“Yeah, I had to politely decline,” she says.
“I feel like stuff like this happens to me more often than not,” she says, rattling off a familiar list: the married man, the drug addict, the guy who already has a wife, kids, and a girlfriend but wants to add her to the rotation.
“I don’t know what about me gives that I would settle for that,” she continues.
“Man at this point what time the rapture start,” she adds in the caption.
What Is Plan B, Exactly?
For anyone who needs the refresher: Plan B is an over-the-counter emergency contraceptive pill, sometimes called the morning-after pill. According to Planned Parenthood, it can reduce the chance of pregnancy by 75–89% when taken within 72 hours of unprotected sex.
It works by temporarily delaying ovulation. It’s not an abortion pill; it doesn’t end an existing pregnancy, and per the FDA, it’s been available over the counter without a prescription for years.
About Those Married Men Though
According to Marriage.com, research suggests 20–25% of married individuals report sexual infidelity at least once, and infidelity rates in unmarried relationships are even higher, often exceeding 30%.
Men report higher rates of sexual infidelity than women, though the gap narrows significantly when it comes to emotional affairs.
The reasons people cheat on partners they claim to love are varied and often don’t have much to do with the person they’re cheating with. Common drivers include opportunity, sexual boredom, emotional affairs that spiral, feeling underappreciated, and—notably—having grown up in households where infidelity was normalized, which research shows makes someone twice as likely to cheat in their own relationships.
Cheating also isn’t just physical. Marriage.com outlines five types: physical, emotional, financial, cyber, and even “object infidelity”—when someone checks out of their relationship in favor of work, a phone, or other distractions.
None of which is Hannah’s problem to solve. But it does explain why the CVS parking lot felt like a microcosm of her entire dating life.
