A third of women only date men because of the free food: study

The results are in: she only wanted to try that hot new restaurant.

A new study published Friday in the Society for Personality and Social Psychology journal found that a quarter to a third of heterosexual women have gone on a date with a guy they weren’t interested in — just for a free meal.

“Foodie calls,” can happen when money’s tight, the grocery store is out of a favorite frozen meal, or a must-try entree is just too extravagant to justify — when the tab comes out of your own bank account.

Two studies, the first conducted with 820 women, and the second with 327, asked participants if they ever engaged in a plate for play: 23% of the women copped to it in the first study, 33% in the second.

“Drinks?”
“Sure. They’ll help me to forget you.”

If you don’t want to make a mistake, you should expose the women you date to the reality of who you are very early. If they don’t like that person, they don’t like you. Life is way, way too short to mold yourself to fit other peoples’ expectations. I’ve done that enough times to have finally learned. That said, if she insists that you take her to an expensive trendy restaurant, and has no problem asking for that, just cancel. Don’t put yourself through that.

It’s probably far more than just one third.

Giving people stuff tends to work in terms of currying favor and winning appreciation and affection.

If paying for meals didn’t work as a ritualistic display of ability and willingness to provide for a female mate, males wouldn’t do it.

I swear. This is the God’s honest truth.

I needed a break from college, so I was working as a waitress at IHOP(night shift).

I guy came in and just said... How much?

I said... You haven’t ordered anything yet. He kept saying, How Much?

Well, the head cook just flew around the counter and said.... You stop disrespecting my waitresses.

As long as I live, I won’t ever forget that.

Absolutely right.

For the record, you are far from the only one who has had to finally learn that life lesson.
