I'd like to buy you a drink
A promise you make to yourself that you will definitely not end up in a taxi with a stranger.
He said he'd buy me a drink. I said I'd take him up on it. Now we're both in a taxi with his ex.
I told him I'd accept a drink. Now I'm stuck with him and his loud friend.
She said she'd take my offer. Now we're both in a taxi, and I'm paying for it.
