Okay, but why are you asking if he pays for the 1st date?I was in no way suggesting that he was single because he doesn't "simp."I'm saying if a man asks me out on a date,then he needs to have the funds to pay for that first date. If a man approaches me on some "Hello, blah blah,I would love to take you out to so & so," he needs to have the coins.It's common courtesy
Maybe it was the way I was brought up?My dad was a military man & knew how to court a woman.
I understand that 100% great post hun.I'm not gonna lie, that's a good question Teedot.
See, I used to be one of those dudes that would go the extra mile in all my relationships. Take them out on dates, genuinely care, etc. I don't mean simping either, I'd have my standards and requirements, and if they hit them, it'd be a mutual thing from there on. But the thing is, over time, people wear you down. People change you. You start off first dating wanting to do everything for your girl because seeing her happy made you happy. Then that falls through. And the next one does. And the next. Then you don't want to pour as much of yourself anymore. Things don't move you as much anymore. You start raising the bar higher and higher, subconsciously knowing that nobody will be able to clear it. And suddenly, you stop bringing things to the table.
I'm somewhere in that cycle right now, and I think that a lot of posters here are too. So to be honest, no. I don't know what my ideal woman would get from me right now.
you must have been used by a gold digger because you associate a woman needing money from a man as gold digging.
and you wont have a wife by being selfish.
Unless he change his ways.But he seems stubborn.
you've gotta fight for the patriarchyI'm not gonna lie, that's a good question Teedot.

what does 2015 got to do with anything? What woman is going to marry a man that has BASIC limits to what he would do for her? Why would a woman marry a man who would not give her money in need when she can pick a man who would do that for her? you use the excuse that every woman asking for money is a gold digger cause you are selfish and materialistic.why would a woman need money from a man?
its 2015
if I'm not married to you why should I hand over my money?
be more financially responsible

and there's nothing wrong with that. If a woman doesn't think that is good enough, then keep it moving, she wasn't the one. The sooner you live by this, the happier you will be.All I got for a woman is trust, love, and protection.
I'm a simple man![]()
Okay, but why are you asking if he pays for the 1st date?
Like, what are you getting at with that questioning?
I mean, my first date with my girl, I went to pay and she insisted we split the check. I'm just traditional in that way but she was adamant about squaring it up. So I was like, cool.
She basically set the ground rules subtly right there. There's other ways I take charge but she aint gonna be bought like that...so to speak. So we developed an understanding early on, and over the last few months.
I think a lot of women don't make enough of an effort to clarify what she's expecting and what she's offering.
But I don't really have a dog in this fight/thread.
I'm just observing.

uh yea sureGiving money to a woman in need doesn't strengthen a relationship, it only leads to being taken advantage of. Plus a women in need of money probably doesn't make sound financial decisions is likely not a good mate.![]()
-The best bodyguard she can get...he lives, sleeps, and goes wherever with her....
-Snarky, snide remarks with some sarcasm to top it off...
-An almost empty slate when it comes to sex...
-A self-defense trainer...
-A live-in artist...
-Possibly a very INTERESTING father of her offspring...
So it sounds like what a man "brings to the table" are tangible/material things...so basically she gets nothing![]()
