"Date theft" ... or maybe "Dinner Whore" (to go along with "Bar Slut").

Also, the latter isn't a new term; I heard it years and years ago, as in back in the 1990's already. Plus it's on Urban Dictionary.
And there have even been mainstream news articles where women "Confess to being a 'Dinner Whore' and etc." (2013)...
Plus various online articles describing the trend a decade ago (2006). What's most interesting about that last article is the following statement:
That's right... she apparently kept track of it, not just the number of meals, but the actual dollar value she "extracted". That's some serious "whoring".

Oh, I get it... "Date Theft" as opposed to "Date Rape".
I just think that since there's already a term & meme out there I doubt a new one is going to gain much traction.

And actually I think the following wouldn't really be correct:
In fact I'd think it would be the opposite. The "Dinner Whore" who actually provides some *ahem* "service" afterwards is pretty much by definition NOT a "thief" but is providing a quasi-professional service (whoring) in exchange for a payment (dinner).
The "Date Thief" ("Dinner Thief"?) would be the "Dinner Whore" who doesn't actually provide the "whore" service -- therefore not fulfilling her side of the "transaction" so to speak.
