It's exactly why I ask to go Dutch. Especially with online dating. I also don't do dinner on a meet up


How do you bring this up? Do you warn her ahead of time? Or are you a woman?

I haven't had many first dates, but I always offered to pay (or would pay for a component of the date if we did something after dinner). It was pretty much always denied.

Probably a gross old fashioned double standard, but I would feel weird about a guy asking us to go dutch before the date even started.

I'm a man. Once we agree to meet I just ask. I always ask and have only been told no once. She didn't get a date. I've actually been told they prefer this numerous times.

Good. People who talk and/or use their phones during movies deserve euthanasia.

Missed a golden opportunity to go with the dick through the bottom of the popcorn bucket routine while she was distracted with the phone.

I always just pay it and don't make it a big deal. Waitress brings the check to me naturally, I put the card in the black thing, conversation never stops. Simple as that

This is a tough one. I've been annoyed at small things like this and imagined all the ways for justice, but I'd never waste my time doing them. I do enjoy a good over the top gesture out of principle, especially if this chick was a bitch, which I have my suspicion she was considering texting in a movie theater.

But this dude took a 35 year old woman for a $4 pizza and a comic book flick for a first date, so I think I hate him. That she drove makes that hate stronger.

Since she did drive, she should sue for the amount a taxi would have charged him for a ride to chucky cheese and the movie theater. Beta bitch.

Even the mildly-SJW chicks I've been out with don't panic about it. At the most, I'll let them pay the tip

I did have a chick flat out tell me she expected all dates to be paid for. Even though I was willing to do such a thing, her telling me that sent me straight to frickOffVille.

This guy is a loser and she was not interested. No big deal move on too many younger girls out there to date.

Best policy. Most women are going to agree to this. If not, you find out really quickly who's high maintenance.
