I should know better but even with experience we can make bad judgments…
Matched on Seeking and had a decent M&G over dinner (moderate) without any financial discussion, and she seemed promising and interested. Over text we agreed on a ppm and she said I could send it now. I told her I could give it to her when we meet but she wanted compensation for the dinner… told her that was not a real date but I would deliver if we had a relationship. She said OK but it would be “a nice gesture” if I bought something from her wish list on Seeking. I hesitated but felt it might be a good compromise. I eventually bought something for a couple of benjamins, and she thanked me. The next day I ask about our date and she says “I don’t think we’re a good match.”
I told her it was dishonest to ask for a gift and then bail and she said “Exactly my point… it shouldn’t be a big deal.”
I told her “My point as well… you can’t just ask for anything because someone has more than you.”
Needless to say, I learned a lesson, without too much of a cost – just another reason to hold firm on this policy of not compensating M&Gs.
It also shows some of these gals are not so bright. She could have had a pretty lucrative arrangement over time but was greedy. It’s always possible that was her plan or that she has another in the wings but still…
