[quote=Anonymous]Hmm -- how old fashioned of your son and this girl. I honestly don't know any 20-something couple (or even 30 something couple) where the guy ALWAYS buys. From what I've seen from friends etc. it's more of a 50-50 thing. Not suggesting that they're nickel and diming -- so I'm sure there are times where the guy ends up paying a bit more, but I think women pick up the tab a lot too now. And frankly in college, I feel like the people who ended up dating seriously were often in similar situations (both rich with tons of spending money from mom/dad or both struggling along with loans and work study) so they kind of kept it even for those reasons; and the instances were a not-rich girl was dating a rich guy (who was paying for spring break etc. not just paying for Chipotle), there was definitely a power "imbalance" that often made women uncomfortable -- i.e. always having to do with the bf wanted (probably including sex though I never asked).[/quote]
