Do you think some OLD coeds are just looking for a free meal?

I was reading this, and it got me thinking:

Elite Colleges Constantly Tell Low-Income Students That They Do Not Belong

Unwritten rules underlie all of elite-university life—and students who don’t come from a wealthy background have a hard time navigating them.

One student Jack interviewed described how she increased her online-dating activity to secure meals on first dates where she expected the men to pay. “She was treating Tinder as if it were OpenTable,” Jack writes.

my opinion:

There's a lot of women wanting "foodie calls" these days. There's a lot of articles on it, especially in the last two years.

Embarrassingly when I started to date again, I was the victim of this a few times.

Nothing surprising there

This isn't new. Before the current generation of apps (Tinder, Bumble, Hinge), women on the websites like Match.com, PlentyofFish, and OkCupid were doing the same thing.

I have one female friend who lives in a different city than I do and I'm not physically attracted to her. She tells me she gets tons of dinner date offers from apps. I am astounded that still happens since I learned not to do dinner first dates nearly a decade ago.

Same for me, but fortunately only once.

Its really unbelievable how dumb the average guy can be sometimes.

Even if you inform him about it, he is still falling for this scam.
