That's what I'm talking about. Why should the man take all the risk in the first few dates?

Think about how great women have it with dating. They can go on a few dates with a man, if it doesn't work out they can be like "oh well, I'm sad it didn't work out, but at least I had a few nights on the town for free." On the opposite side a man is like "well great, the relationship didn't work out and now I'm out a few hundred bucks that could've been spent on other things". It s*cks on multiple fronts for a man.


Congratulations, you've expressed your radical worldview. If that is more important to you than having a decent girlfriend or getting laid, then you succeeded

Even if a girl agrees with going dutch on the first date she would still be put off by your manifesto

You're cheap, rude and uncultured. No surprise you've had little success dating.

With risk comes reward. Since I became single again three years ago, I've been on a few dates where I took a woman out and didn't hear back from her the next day. Doesn't matter to me, I just move on.

What kind of places are you wanting to take someone to spend a few hundred bucks on? You go to a nice restaurant but not a high-end one on the first date. One relationship I was in recently our first date was at a chicken wing place she liked. We dated for a few months and ended badly but hey, it was fun while it lasted.

The best part about having female friends these days, other than the occasional romp, is when they share pathetic dude online dating messages.


This is so true! The best thing you can have in your corner is female friends, the more fun and cuter the better. I have a few close female friends, trust me when I say women are the best wingmen (wingwomen technically) ever. When a woman you know or don’t know sees you having fun with other women, they may want to see what your all about. Not all of them, but it only takes one.

To the OP, you should always make the woman the focus. Forget about your (IMO, radical) views, how much it costs you, or how bad you were hurt before. LET IT GEAUX. The only thing you are proving is why you’re single and beating it at home yourself.

I’d suggest getting with a life coach or something similar. Not books, someone who can work with you.

When it comes to dating... Looks are virtually a mute point for females.. As long as you are clean and put together, you’ll be fine.

** Keep things LIGHT, make them LAUGH, and LISTEN to her.. Ask light/fun questions...

A comfortable woman that is having fun will lead you down the path.. All you have to do is not screw it up! Good luck!

I somewhat expected her response.


You don’t really want to date. Maybe you are afraid. Maybe you aren’t over your ex. Maybe you are repressed gay.

Whatever it is, you are self sabotaging, setting yourself up to fail, then blaming it on your “views.”

I just skipped ahead to say the same things.

This is so obviously a troll that I am not even going to spend the time to point out why it is so obvious.

If this were real, I would say that the male probably has Asperger’s Disease. It’s not real though.

Before we get to talking on the phone I do want to be up front about a few things. One is I have no interested in having children and plan to have a vasectomy in late April.


Why would you text that? You haven't even met the girl and you spilling your guts. That information might be better saved if you know there if you have been on a few dates and know that it might turn into a relationship. I am surprised you got any response from that alone.

quote:

I believe in chivalry but on the first few dates I go dutch. I do this because I have been hurt by women in the past, being used just as a glorified ATM. These women weren't really interested in me but just wanted a free night on the town.


Meet at a coffee shop or something if you are worried about this. Also something tells me you probably go somewhere expensive on the first date which is your fault.

quote:

I think it's important for both sides to show financial commitment in a relationship. I understand this might come off as a radical view and I hope none of these two things scare you off.


You haven't even been on a date nor have even seen the girl why are talking about a relationship? You mentioned your views on children and financial responsibilities ,before you even met her.

My advice to you would be stop looking for women online and go out and meet them the old fashioned way. It is spring time there are tons of music festivals and events going on right now. Sack up and approach a woman, talk to her and if you get rejected so what move on. Stop being the too nice guy and hide your cards a little bit.

Go on a cheaper first date then. Keep it simple, go get some beignets and coffee or something. It does come off pretty bad to not pay on the 1st few dates.

You might as well save that text because you'll be sending it out a lot, and for many years.

I understand where the original poster is coming from. While what he is saying can be true, articulating his views won't get him any strange.

Take a look at this Zero Date concept. I do a version where the first date where it is just a few drinks and I try to entertain myself. And, I always pick up the check.

All that being said, I am losing interest in women because of who and how they are. And, no, I am not gay. My life is a lot easier and less stressful without a romantic partner.

zero dates
