Ugh, it's honestly so simple that it’s almost boring. I can literally post a picture of my dinner receipt, like, not even the food itself, just the boring little piece of paper with the total on it, and my phone instantly starts buzzing. It's like magic. Just upload, sit back, and watch the notifications roll in from guys I don't know and will never meet. They fall over themselves trying to be the one who covers my meal. It’s pathetic, but hey, it funds my lifestyle. Do they think this makes them special? That sending me $500 for a dinner I already ate somehow builds a connection? Let’s be clear: I do not know you. I do not care about your name or what you do for a living. You are a username and a payment notification in my activity feed. That is the entire extent of our relationship. And here's the hilarious part, what do they get out of it? A "thank you" message if I'm feeling generous that day. Maybe a heart reaction to their payment note if they send an especially large tip along with it. And for that tiny crumb of attention from me… they feel like kings. They actually walk around after that thinking, "Yeah, *I* paid for her meal." Like it’s some kind of achievement or badge of honor. They get to fantasize that they're taking care of me, providing for me, when in reality they're just another faceless simp fueling my takeout habit while getting absolutely nothing tangible in return. It's the easiest game in the world because their ego does all the work for me. The promise of fleeting acknowledgment from someone they see as out of their league is worth more to them than their own money. So keep those payments coming, boys!
