Actually I think this is fine! I have coinbase, it’s a legit app, just like robinhood or E*trade but for crypto. She’s not giving him her financial info, he’s just giving her tips. Fantastic! I love it. Pay off that debt queen. I mean, be smart and don’t throw your savings in there, and yes, do transfer the money to the bank, just leave a bit to keep playing the game of the market!

Frankly I think that people have too limited of a view of the utility of dating apps— I think that dating apps are a great way to simply meet a smattering of random people who can offer you a smattering of random things. It’s just like meeting people in the real world. Sometimes you meet people for one thing like a date but they turn out to be a great friend or a financial advisor! I think that if people kind of widened their expectations of what dating apps are for, it could really help with finding love or companionship too! Just like how if you really want a boyfriend, and that’s all you can think about, that’s kind of the worst way to get a boyfriend lol (didn’t Caroline write about this in TAF?). If you use dating apps as a way to meet interesting people (instead of clutching to it desperately to find “the one”) you will meet some interesting people, some lemons, some hot dates, some love, etc. !

All that said, it’s not that I am positive he’s absolutely NOT a catfisher, it’s just that he might not be. And as far as I can tell he hasn’t done anything wrong or scammy! It’s her money.

Until she can successfully transfer that money to her bank, I would be worried.
