If you're going on a date, say for a meal, or watching movie & so on with your boyfriend/girlfriend, who usually pay?
I found that some guys, they don't let ladies pay the bill. I know some are being gentlemen n courteous. But paying the bill is not all the guys job anyway, right? Of course I am not saying, all ladies love to pay for the bills. I know there are ladies who will wait for guys to pay the bills.
So, just would like to know how's your case? For guys, do you really mind if your girl pays for your date? If mind, why is it so? For ladies, what do you think if you instead of your partner have to pay on your date? Do you think is it necessary for guys to pay for all dates?

well for me..its a two way street. it depends on the sit. it's okey for the ladies to pay sometime..but if it's all the time then we have a problem. like if he's using me.guys paying on dates shaows us that they are a gentleman. they have pride and well the big part of what woman wants in a relationship. SECURITY.. ^_~

ya, i agree with you that, its a two way street. I think it needs to be balance up. It couldn't be like guys using ladies, and ladies are using guys. It's unfair. If one side has the power of money, then it's different story. But still have to judge carefully whether it's a truly heart to heart relationship or being used. Coz, my cousin was being used by a girl he used to like before just because he has the power of money.

I always go out on a date, whether with an ex-bf (when I still had one) and even those who court me. The invitation was rather polite so why not? I have always been an independent person, I love paying for myself. But men don't allow me to pick up the tab, even my ex-bf. The suitors may be paying because they want to impress me with their extravagance, though I don't really mind splitting the bill especially if I enjoyed the food and the ambiance. My ex-bf is just somewhat "wealthy". He liked showering me with presents and take me to poshy places where he can spend lots of money. He was not showing off, that's just his lifestyle. I always offer him to split the bill but he won't hear of it, he's very traditionalist.

I don't mind if the ladies want to pay the bill as long as it doesn't burden them. I myself believe that a gentlemen should pay if the ask out ladies for a date but if is discuss earlier that it will be equal in paying then it' s ok also.
