So us women can't get a man to pay for the first date now? Seriously. I appreciate anyone who does something for me but all you are getting on a first date is a hug forreal. If you can't afford to pay for a date you really shouldn't be looking to start a relationship.

Why do you need a man to pay for you on your first date? when you may or may not like him enough to go out on another date?

you know I'll be perfectly fine paying for a night out if i'm exclusive with a woman, but a first date, casual dating? :heh:

And Oh I can afford to pay for a date, but why should I when I may never hear from you again?

It's the polite thing to do, if you tell a girl that you want to " take her" out the implications are that you are going to pay for her.

Secondly you don't have to take a girl to a place where you can't afford the menu. You have to be smart if your not sure if you guys are going to be serious or not don't take her to the most expensive restaurant or offer to take her for milkshakes and movies afterwards.

But why can't I ask a girl out and I pay my bill and she pays her, and if she doesn't feel me after that date and no longer wants to talk to me then shrugs, I enjoyed a night out and paid for my meal and she paid for hers.

I remember a guy that was like "we went out a few times and I still didn't hit. :upsetfavre:"
It's funny because if he would've let me pay the second time we went out the outcome would've be different. Especially that I was actually digging him. Oh well

Why ask her out if your not willing to the foot the bill?

But I guess you could always let her know in advance ...."oh by the way you have to pay for yourself" :bryan:

If some is like ebonykiss lets go to the concert, and your like sure. You would come up with the funds for the ticket.

I never let them know in advance, always separate bills

If a guy ask me to go out he should pay if he is interested . Now if we are just friends than I wouldn't expect it. I'm somewhat traditional a man should pay. Not all the time. But damn at least the first date. If I don't like him it is mostly because he is weird or scary. I wouldn't cut u off just because we weren't compatible. If a man isn't willing to pay for a first date he shouldn't be looking for a date. A real woman wants a real man. One who is not selfish and who is willing to do for her. This is what we look for and not paying on a first date is a bad sign. It's just how things work it's the same way how men automatically think that woman should cook more for her family. Some things are just the way they are.

why?
why should you pay for someone who has their own money, why should you literally pay for a stranger who will hold the power for the most part if she wants to see you or hang out again.

So yeah let me pay for that movie, that dinner, that milkshake, and get a thanks your a great guy but were just not compatible as you go out again the next night and fleece the next sucker.

What kind of loser ass comment is this? It's a date. Stop overthinking shyt. You're doing everything wrong.When you go out, whether it's someone you know or not, you're putting yourself out there. A date isn't fool proof or guaranteed anything.

You sound like a guy who got friend zone'd a lot. It wasn't because you paid for the date. The problems women have with you are deeper than $$.

1. I never get friendzoned
2. I haven't paid for a woman on a date in nearly 3 years

I was speaking in generalizations, more than not a guy will ask a girl out on a date, more than likely he will find the girl attractive. And more than likely he will ask for as econd date, and more than likely its up to the women to decide if she wants to go on a date with him again.

I really do feel it should be on whoever asks, I've had females hit me wit shyt like "you wanna take me out this weekend?" And I shoot the shyt down every time, I don't spend money on request, but if I ask them I'm not tripping cause I see it as paying for the experience and memory more so than her time
