[quote=Anonymous]IME (and I have boys and girls), payment is a negotiated item when kids go out. What I usually see is not only an invite but also a statement about payment, such as “How about I buy the tickets and you get the snacks”. Or just an immediate offer to get the tickets. If your son left that open, it’s pretty awkward for the invitee so no surprise she said she’d get the tickets. So, my takeaway is that her telling him she’d get her own ticket means nothing more than he didn’t complete the invite by telling her he’d get the ticket. Had he done that, she may have offered to get the movie snacks. Even when they are actually dating, there is always a payment discussion in the decision to go out. There is no assumption that the boy will pay or that the person issuing the invitation will pay. [/quote]
