[quote=Lonely_Sojourner][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s not even a refusal to pay- it’s more that they actually can’t afford it. Then I’m faced the dilemma of paying for it or else not doing the things I want to do and can afford. That’s the pickle, as I have it, as a woman. [/quote]

Of course, wealthy men have this pickle too.  You'd rather be alone than share your resources.  Funny, as women are supposed to be the more social / empathetic gender.

Anyways, your problems are easily solvable, so if you don't then that's on you.

No. But dating is a process and I don’t want to squander my resources on people who are temporary placeholders in my life. That’s one of the reasons I’ll always have money.

Funny that you’d cast me as lacking empathy. If I showered expensive trips on men you’d say I was insecure or foolish. That’s the pickle women face.

Again, I completely agree with you.  I am as generous as they come; however, there are limits to my generosity.  One-sided aspects in any relationship are always a source of strain be it: sex, housecleaning, finances, etc.  Further, there is something to be said for reciprocity (in any form).  The same lady I took to Thailand resented the fact that I have a housekeeper.  She always held it against me that I was wasting my money.  To me, it wasn't a waste of money as the housekeeper provides value in that she does things around the house that I do not care to do.
