I don't because we're all in different places in life financially. Dating is essentially introducing a woman to your world......I'm not taking a chick to Chilli's because I'm not going to Chilli's in my daily life.
I've spent $200 going out to eat by myself. I've spent $400 on dates to restaurants like say Carbone or Peter Lugers.......to one of my friends, that's going all out as he said he has never spent more than $150 on a date. For me, I'm simply living life and enjoying what I like to do, for someone else that might be going all out.
You do realize, there's people taking women on vacation as a first date? People are taking women to courtside seats at basketball games, out of the country on FIRST DATES because at the end of the day, people want to enjoy life which whatever means they have.
