that would arguably be the reason i made this comment, depending on how you read the room. But ultimately, it is a negative social behavior to engage in.

There is definitely some truth here to this being a "group behavior" but in this case, it was one other person, there are three people here total, you are literally just showing up to the hunting party after the fact to grub some free food at that point. Hence my part about "dont this it this blatantly" to elaborate on what i mean here, the social aspect i'm referring to would be a community, people you've known and that people you know have known for many years. It's why when somebody new shows up, everybody is cautious about the new person. And slowly warms up to them. If you instantly warm up to someone, there is either something funny going on, or you're a very specific type of person, which may be advantageous, but in this case, probably isnt.

you're either putting yourself in a position where you look like a bad person, or a really opportunistic person, and neither of those are good. It's just bad vibes.
