Dating in New York is already a Cirque du Soleil act of red flags, but one Hinge match just managed to raise the bar.
A woman shows up for her long-awaited coffee date even though he chose a chain café a full 40 minutes from her apartment. When she finally walks in, he’s already halfway through his latte without a hint of shame. It definitely posed her not as a romantic prospect but more like the Uber Eats order he forgot he placed. Then, with the confidence of a man who may have a partner somewhere, he suggests she get in line for her own drink. If this is the state of modern romance, no wonder half the city is in therapy and the other half is swearing off coffee dates forever.
