[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH and I met when we were 21 and we just always split the bills then, but of course neither of us had jobs or money yet. I don't really think it's fair to make the guy pay when only dating. When you're actually boyfriend/girlfriend it makes more sense. [/quote]

No, it doesn't make sense to make one person pay all the time whether a guy or a woman. Can you explain a logical reason for your statement? It can't be "because it's tradition." Women didn't work decades ago. But we do now. So what reason would there be for a man to constantly foot a bill for me?[/quote]

I actually like when the guy pays when we are at a restaurant.

Of course I paid for things. I often picked up take out and groceries but when we are going out to dinner, [b]I always preferred for the guy to pay.[/b][/quote]

Why?

If he wants any chance at romance/sex, the gentlemanly thing to do is take the girl out on a date, no? If he wants to have sex, be exclusive, marry the woman, the least he can do is take the woman out on dates. Maybe I’m just old fashioned.

I made plenty of money so it isn’t like I couldn’t pay for dinner. [/quote]

Gee since he has to pay to have sex, we've established what profession you are in.[/quote]
