Like the old speed dating? I’m not winning in that format. What a waste of time. I chat up women I know or sleep with a couple of my ex wife’s friends. Trying to get rapport in a forced setting like that sucks and the women are a bad mix of high ego + low prospects.

Huh. Kind of like men having to say “enjoys travel” in profiles because 1) women are obsessed with it and 2) allegedly serves as shorthand for being cultured and having disposable income.

Another angle is dropping down a social class. That is, a 3-day getaway to the Caribbean is transformative for some younger women who never left the country. I went to a few places with a bartender I liked. She was chill, fun, and not money obsessed. She had reasons for not traveling before.
