Should Dating Apps Reimburse Single People for Being Stood Up?

Dating apps keep trying to make it fun to HANG IN THERE . . . but let’s be honest, online dating can be a major downer, in several ways.  And it can be EXPENSIVE.  So here’s an idea:

 

 

A woman named Paige is going viral for sharing her story of being stood up. She was at the restaurant a little early, the guy said he was on his way, so she ordered a drink and a shrimp cocktail, and . . . he never showed.

 

 

Then, after about a half hour, she called . . . and couldn’t get through.  She said she realized either his phone died or he blocked her . . . and it became clear that it was the latter, because she never heard from him again.

 

 

She ranted about it . . . saying that, among other things, she was out over $100, for the shrimp and the drink, the Ubers to and from the restaurant, plus tips.

 

 

Then she said, this:  “So Bumble, can you pay me that $100 that I’m owed because you have trash men on your app?”
