Paying for dates

I’ve been happily married for more than ten years to a man who isn’t hurt by a $150 restaurant bill and who is generous and well mannered— all very important things to know about a potential partner up front! Every part of a date is an audition.

With all due respect, your opinion on this is invalid if you've been married for the last 10 years.

It’s clear. If you are not splitting, it’s not a date. It’s a service. What do they call such service?

When I go out with my friends, we split the check. Not on a first date.

Only if there's sex. No sex, not an escort.

Selective feminism? Elective equality? Lack of self respect? Free loading?

Escorting doesn’t necessarily involve sex, prostitution is.

I think it is because you asked them out. That is what you state above. I’m a bit older and so when I dated, and the man asked me out, he paid. Once we went out 3 or more times I would offer to pay, buy drinks, offer tickets to events. It was natural. I think that is dating.

Also, I am guessing if one of them really caught your attention this would not be an issue. If you had had chemistry, really thought “ wow” you would just be so happy you met and would be thinking of a next date and not what you spent.

I now make much more than my dh and we are a team ( all finances together) but he still always pulls out the credit card first😀

You are the one doing something pathetic. I’m only calling it out. Truth is harsh.

It’s clear you will remain single.

If you want to an equal and earn respect, pay your way. Don’t go out accepting free food from strangers.

Don’t invite women to dates you can’t afford?
