[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pp again. I can’t imagine going on a date who couldn’t buy me a cup of coffee. I would be fine with buying my own coffee.

I went to college and grad school with wealthy students so I never hung out with any guys who wouldn’t buy me dinner. DH was not wealthy but also bought me dinner all the time with the little money he did have. He now earns a seven figure income.

I didn’t know or associate with guys who would not buy dinner on a date. How cheap!![/quote]

There's nothing wrong with not being interested in a walking date. It is wrong to judge someone as 'cheap' for rejecting the "pay to play" paradigm of traditional dating.

You have also contradicted yourself. You are not fine buying your own cup of coffee. You expect men to pay even, in your own words, when they had little money (I have no idea what your DH's currently makes has to do with anything). Again, it's fine if a walking date isn't your thing but don't think you aren't charging an access fee.[/quote]

I have been with Dh for over 20 years. I had a lot of suitors before him. If I accepted what I considered a true date, I’m pretty sure it was always dinner. There were other guys who I met and wanted to hang out we may have hung out in a group. I did not consider them dates and don’t remember what we did and I likely always paid for myself. If a guy had the intent and showed he liked me, I would have accepted and I got ready.

I honestly probably would not have wanted to go on a coffeee date and never have. But then again, I didn’t cook so I would have preferred to meet up to eat. This goes for dates and friends too. I always went out to eat with friends.

I have always attracted gentlemen type men. I didn’t hang out with or associate with guys who tried to take me home from a club or try to take me on a coffee date and definitely not a walking date.[/quote]
What a little princess you are[/quote]

Ha. My friends did used to call me a princess. I actually used to take pride in being high maintenance. I made guys work for it and they did. That seems silly now. When you have a lot of options, you don’t have to accept anything else.

As arrogant as it sounds, I had many guys hitting on me and asking me out everyday. No one ever asked me out on a walking date. I would not have to go on such a bad date because I had many more better options.[/quote]
