For a good story to balance these out....
I was out of town dog sitting and wanted to go to a nice restaurant and knew some company would make it more enjoyable. I sent out messages to quite a few women on a dating site and a few responded. One was interesting and interested. However she refused to go to the expensive restaurant as she didn't want any mistake that a hookup was happening. She insisted on a Mexican place where nothing was over $15.
We ate and watched football and had a few beers. We ended up seeing each other 3 times that week and I visited a few more times in the months to follow.
Nice to find her.
You should press charges that she stuck you with the bill for three dates
Online dating these days is pretty much one party trying to one up the other. It doesn't even feel like it's about finding a long term partner anymore (even 5yrs ago things weren't this bad).
