Im all for splitting the bill. I always feel guilty when someone does something like pay for my stuff, i don't like to be a burden on anyone so splitting it is totally fair.
if i would ever pay for the food a woman bought just because she is the woman and i am the man im gonna expect her to repay it some way or another or i will be moving on.
My ideal scenario involves them offering to pay though. I usually politely decline anyway so no losses for them there. But the intention matters to me.
What if he insists? I think I would, the girl would have to insist to pay her half. My ideal scenario involves them feeling nice that I paid instead of feeling like they were entitled to it.
Of course. It is nobody's duty to pay for someone's ANYTHING. That is a nice gesture that needs to be acknowledged and thanked for (not with sex though cause then it's prostitution).
You get it.
With today's promiscuous women, paying for them isn't worth it. Not to mention that they respond better to selfishness, that's why all the jerks get pussy all the time. These feminist women don't deserve to be treated specially.
Men, stop giving in to women. Everything is handed down to them at the flick of a finger. Turn the tides, lads.
great take.
I stay firm in my belief that it should be 50/5
50, and 5 ? Omg
Fuck 50/50 dumb phone
I see😂
Just as a matter of interest if I spend a lot getting ready for a date, should I expect the girl to pay, do we compare preparation receipts to see who pays. I personally think the bill should be split or pay for your own.
Exactly I don't understand why guys bitch about 20 dollars 😂
And you're different how? I mean, if it's "just 20" dollars, what problem do you have paying them?
@ThisDudeHere because it's nice to do. What problem do YOU have paying it?
Woman shouldn't expect it to happen but it's nice to do. Why are ya gonna bitch about twenty dollars for?
Why are you asking me why I'm bitching about 20 dollars when, first of all, I'm not doing that and second of all, that's exactly what you're doing right now?
I'm not bitching about twenty dollars I'm describing all the men who have a problem paying for it.
You didn't describe anything. You merely stated your lack of understanding over why guys dislike paying. And then you ask why a guy would complain.
And yet you fail to see that complaining is exactly what you're doing - if you think that a 20 dollars shouldn't be a thing to complain about for guys, then the same 20 dollars shouldn't be a problem for you either.
If it's such a nice thing to do, then why don't YOU pay? Don't you care about impressing the guy? Do you just want to be impressed? Dating is a two-way street.
@Kirah nobody is obligated to pay.
All of a sudden nobody when two posts earlier it was all about guys paying?
@ThisDudeHere I don't understand why guys have a problem with paying!
But if you think it's no big deal then why do you have a problem with paying? What are you? A princes who deserves to be paid for?
@ThisDudeHere that wasn't my question. Why do guys have a problem with paying?
I have already given my reasons. You've yet to give yours. I'm not gonna rewrite what has already been written here.
@ThisDudeHere I don't have a problem with paying. I'll pay for a mans bill because I have money and I don't mind being a nice person. Now answer mine.
I have already done so. I never said that I'd never do it. My problem with you is expecting the guy to always do it just because he has a penis and you have a vagina.
@ThisDudeHere I don't expect it at all where did I say that?
You implied it.
HAHAH only broke bums
@Afrochick true lol
So paying for the first day is like compensating or subsidizing effort of putting on make up?
It's not compensating. You can rationalize it all you want but it's set in the instinctual monkey side of their brains. By makeup and waxing I was giving examples of things women *have* to do that men don't, despite believing in equality.
Did i rationalize? I was trying to understand your logic. I thought "Women spend quite a bit (efforts and $$) on makeup, waxing and all that shit" was rationalizing tbh.
Paying because they buy make up, wax and spend the time doing it isn't compensating?
compensating--to provide or be an equivalent; make up; make amends (usually followed by for)
So paying for the date isn't to "make up" or be "equivalent" for the money and effort that spent on make up and waxing? That's what I was curious about. I thought that's your justification or rationalizion.
It's set in the money side of brain to pay for a date huh. Can you elaborate? I may agree but I'm not sure what you mean.
Most dates don't cost enough to even complain about it. You spend more on your Cheetos per month.
Let me ask you something. Is your imagination so poor that all you can conjure up for a first date is dinner?
Did you read the whole thing? I said take her out on other dates.
..."so I'm only talking about the first date"...
then there are pictures of dinner plates and forks.
Better idea than spending money on women: Men Going Their Own Way (MGTOW).
Buy yourself two pizzas instead of buying her dinner :D
I think girls just like it because it proves that you have a job and money to spare and you aren't a loser.
I prefer splitting though because I want to date someone who also has a job and money herself :)
I do more than a lot of women to look good. Not that it matters anyway. Whether you pay it not isn't the ingredient that attracts her.
Why men should pay for the first date: they shouldn't. If she won't pony up her end of the bill spray some Bitch B'gone.
I'm a firm believer in being single answer keeping my cash.
Men should ALWAYS pay they are supposed to be the protectors and providers. Where have all the true men gone? These so called men are so cheap and whiny and pathetic. I've been on dates with men that would never allow me to pay no matter what, I would even have to struggle and argue with them. There are no more men in the thisworld it seems.
That's cause there aren't many "women" in the world. Are you ready to be the submissive housewife and let a man take control?
This is why you're still single, lady.
Lol you are a prostitute/whore
Haha I love when you idiots bring up the submissive house wife argument 😂😂😂😂😂 I actually don't mind that at all. I want that life, but wanting that life don't mean I gotta be a doormat plus all men want a man now instead of a woman so it seems I have no choice.
@Kirah haha b! tch please you don't know shit and you just spewing crap from your ass lmfaoooooo. IF only you knew if only if only 😂😂😂😂😂 tsk tsk
@amphet11 nah bruh, that doesn't make me a prostitute or a whore cause (SHOCKERS) I'm a virgin...
Paying for womans meals back in the day was the norm and no one called them such names, why the name calling today babes? AND not lie and act like u wouldn't want free meals. Bitch ass hypocrites.
If him paying for things is a prerequisite to you sleeping with him, you are semantically a whore. Women didn't earn money back then so it was more accepted, but it was still considered prostitution, the popular saying "prostitution is the oldest profession in the world"(coined by runard kipling) refers to the average women, not the girl on the street corner.
@amphet11 lmfao gto you old piece of crap. Don't ry logic with me when you're an idiot yourself
So you are just going to impugn what i have said with malign detritus, instead of bringing up a point to counter it?
@amphet11 not my fault you ain't got real man sweetheart. Otherwise you wouldn't be so offended by my original post.
And by the way sweetie you are the one who instigated this.. detritus.
So real men buy women's affection? ok! those are beta males, you entitled vagina!
"AND not lie and act like u wouldn't want free meals" opinion owner just admitted she likes using men for free meals.
You like being a submissive housewife? Then why are you on the internet? Submissive housewives shouldn't express their opinion unless their husband gives permission. You also shouldn't be voting.
Oh, but you only like certain aspects of traditionalism, right? You like the fact that you never have to initiate or pay for dates. You like the fact that you can sit at home all day, and perhaps later on take care of the kids, while your husband works. But you would loathe all the other aspects. You just pick and choose your privileges. You call yourself traditional when convenient, and you scream "but muh equality!" when traditionalism isn't convenient. It doesn't work that way, lady.
I hope you have space for 10 cats, because at this rate, you'll be 40 and alone. I don't want to hear you whining "where have all the good men gone?" when that happens, y'hear? I warned you.
@Kirah haha gtfo shemale.
You first, hypocrite.
So then are you ok with men being paid more for the same job?
" @amphet11 lmfao gto you old piece of crap. Don't ry logic with me when you're an idiot yourself " calls him an idiot while she has... hang on... 2 spelling mistakes, 1 grammar mistake, the over use of abbreviation, and improper punctuation. Might I suggest a spell check before you insult other people's intellect? It'll make your words carry more weight.
@ThatJarHead *1 grammatical error
Soz, I'm a Nazi.
I am not reading everything i wrote again, point out my solecism, it would be a typing mistake anyway.
I think the guy should always pay. What happened to treating women like ladies?
What happened to women acting like ladies? You ask that like it's so straight forward.
It is isn't it?
Men don't act like they need to take care of women because women don't act like ladies that need to be taken care of. Simple.
I mean I can understand and all but I still rather split.
I SEE PUSSY IN YOUR FUTURE :) :P
You made me laugh at 2:30 in the morning. Good on you! XD
