    Not too suave. Pretty sure “I’ll dick you down” isn’t going to work on most 36 year old ladies on tinder, especially in a transactional manner they could get fired for.

      She matched with him knowing full well who he is and that he’s in her class, though, so it’s kind of on her.

        I agree. She was “well aware”. I think he totally could have hooked up if he hadn’t been an immature douche. You can see her getting turned off in real time.

        He super liked her, I could easily imagine her reaction was to roll her eyes and swipe right to see what funny business this student has come up with.

        Sure, she’s risking getting fired just for approaching him in a situation like Tinder. A romantic or sexual relationship with a student could get her fired, but especially explicitly in exchange for a grade, which was apparently not her idea.

      Good luck proving it, it’s not like they took a screenshot of their profile and messages and posted it on the Internet for the entire world to see… Oh wait.

        If she accepted, he could blackmail her or get her fired since he had the proof on the app.

          Yeah, there’s no way she would fumble her career that easily, even if she wanted to.

    Isn’t the “super like” a paid feature to let the other person know even if they didn’t swipe left (right?) On you?

    If so, max cringe

      It is now, but you used to get a free one each day, iirc. So while this is definitely cringe, there’s a chance, depending on when it happened (if it happened), that it’s slightly less than max cringe.

      Edit: I looked closer, this is apparently from 2016, you still got free super likes back then.
