    No way. It actually annoys me if he tries to insist on it. I earn too, why should he be out of pocket and not me?

    Ugh I got stuck having to have a second date with a guy I didn't particularly like, because the bugger paid behind my back and I couldn't let him get away with it.

      Why does him paying mean that you have to go on a second date? Is this really why women don't like guys to pay? Because they feel like it obligates them to stick around?

      I always pay most or all of the check on the first date simply because I am the one who invited her out. And besides, that extra $10 for her half is of almost no consequence to me anyway so I might as well.

        No, because that's how my fucked up sense of 'fairness' works, when in reality, that was most UNFAIR to go out again, if I wasn't all that interested.

        I speak for myself here, no one else. It's not the reason I don't like guys to always pay. This was a once off.

      Once a guy insisted on buying me beers in a club. I said, "Actually I'm with two friends and I was going to buy them drinks too." He answered, "No problem, I'll pay for three." Later he came and asked me to dance to which I replied, "Do you really think that you can buy me a dance with three beers???"

      This is not cool but I'm that way.

      Well first the guy always should offer to pay on a date , second it depends on the girl i guess , like if she wants him to pay or not if she do want him to pay , she will just let him but if she doesnt she might pay for her self
      Thanks for ur help :)

        But why 'should' he? Why is he obligated? Other than what I guess you could call tradition. Why are both parties not obligated? If he should offer, so should I. I wouldn't mind him paying as long as it's understood I'll foot the next bill. Though I think that until it's an official relationship, paying for yourself is the best option.

            I kinda thought that we were moving away from that kind of thought.

            Guess not :/

            Challenge the norm, I say :P
