It used to bother me to no end, but my girlfriend and I have been dating for so long that it's now a non-issue. Whoever happens to have cash on them is the one who pays for everything now.
I don't see a problem with paying for a date, that would not bother me at all. But, if the guy is gonna feel uncomfortable, then I don't mind him paying instead. Of course I am married though, so now its just like Reitz said, whoever has money pays.
Of course not! My gf pays for alot of stuff we do. Sometimes she'll treat for dinner. Or if we go to a movie, she'll buy the tix. Or if we're at a bar, she'll buy the next round. Who cares?
When you are first dating, whoever asked the other person out for the date should pay. If the guy asks the girl out, he should pay and vice versa. But after you are dating for a while it is no longer an issue. Generally my husband and I split the bill, but sometimes he asks me out and pays and sometimes I ask him out and I pay. It's important to continue "dating" after you are married.
My wife and I have always had a "sharing" relationship. Why should one party always have to pay? Therefore, we alternate (but don't really keep track). It usually works out to who ever has the cash or CC handy.
Women that expect men to pay all the time don't fly with me.... Carry your own weight beyach.
Women wanted equal rights/pay, etc.... So, cough it up baby.
However, there are the ever present males that figure out how to mooch off of women like a champ. I work with a girl that has a nasty credit card bill from an ex-boyfriend because she "took care of his every need". Duh.
Dam, I'd have some nice stuff if I had only met her sooner.
it really doesn't matter. personally i wouldn't like it if he pays for everything, makes me feel guilty since we're both poor college students
so we usually alternate... like he pays for dinner and i pay for movie etc... makes everything equal that way
<P>If it was a first or second date, then yeah it would kind of bother me.&nbsp; But if she does pay for the date, I wouldn't make a big fuss about it, I'd just use it to ask her out on another date and pay for that one.
If it was with a girl that I have been dating for a while, then 50/50 usually the way I go.
