[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know a guy who makes $$$ who gets upset when the woman does not offer to pay. For the first few dates, fine. After a handful, he starts getting bothered.

Does it matter if the guy makes 50k or 500k?

Guy I’m thinking of probably makes $500-800k per year.

Dh and I were both in grad school when we started dating. Dh paid for most dates. I know I would pick up take out or buy groceries. I’m not sure how I would handle dating a guy who I knew made a lot who would not want to pay for me. But if he was broke or made equal or less than me, I would of course not expect him to pay for everything.[/quote]

It doesn't matter about how much money he makes, it's all about consideration for others. Even if you offer to pay $20 youre offering something. As a woman myself  and having daughters I have told them and would want them to offer to pay. It sets a standard for a lasting relationship. If 1 person weither man or woman always expects the other to pay while dating a lasting relationship will be one sided with the other expecting to never contribute since they earn less.

If one party doesn't earn alot and can't afford to always go out then have less expensive dates and let the other know this is what they can afford.

Not everything has to be about man/woman.[/quote]
