Now I am beginning to think she dodged a bullet here...
Do you think I keep up everyday and go to work just to give money away? I am obviously trying to meet someone who is not all about getting a free meal. Everything is high now along with rising rent among other things and you expect a man to just treat a bunch a woman to dinner he doesn't know?

Trust me-- unless a woman is so poor that she has trouble feeding herself, she's not going to go through all the trouble of going out with a guy she's not interested in just to "get a free meal."

According to some of the guys on this forum, internet dating is rife with "dinner whores". lol Sounds funny, but there seems to be something to it.

Of course she is going to go out with a guy because he is expected to pay. Has nothing to do with interest. So a guy treat 3 women to dinner and may not get a call back from any of them. But if he doesn't get a call back from a coffee or ice cream meet it's not hurting the pockets too much.
And that's why I suggest the coffee/ice cream meet because you have to see if you click. Now if you do click then a guy would not have a issue paying because he is paying for dinner for a woman who he knows is interested in him

Understand what I mean?
It makes perfect sense, especially in the context of OLD. And I like all your ideas, OP. I love weekend brunch!

I think dinner is weird for a first meeting. What if the other person is an ahole? I did that once and the guy blew his nose at the table. Never again.
Too bad you aren't offering free meals though. I could go for one, even from Panera Bread. Kidding!
A first date I think it is better to just play things safe with drinks or coffee. I agree that a short first date at least allows you not to be stuck for a long period of time. OP I do think the girls response was rude. That being said I would not say anything but going for ice cream on a first date is odd. I don't know why but in my opinion it is just better to stick to things like coffee.
On a side note I am a female and don't expect for the guy to pay for me. I always offer to pay. I do this because I just feel in this day in age it is fair. I understand people have a budget but there is a difference between being on a budget and being cheap.
