Yeah... but what else can we do, expect guys to pay everytime? it's awkward because it's dumb for only guys to pay and talking money on the first date is gonna be awkward
I’ve heard about girls just going on dates just for the free food, then oh I don’t think this will work bye.
I’m not one of those.
And you heard it Right! this is a trend that is gaining a lot of traction.
I figure if you do the inviting you should do the paying.
Would always pay for myself, or at least offer first
Simple rule is the One who asks; pays! It should be decided beforehand to avoid embarrassments.
a question that comes to mind, is do you hate to talk about it... or do you hate to spend money on yourself and pay your part of the meal?
I wouldn’t mind paying for my own stuff.
what makes it so awkward and dreadful then?
Because usually, guys pay for dates. But it’s also rude to just assume that. And I don’t know the right words to explain to them that I’d be okay paying for my own. Or at what part of the date that conversation should occur. Or how to bring it up.
Long story short, I have a lot of social anxiety in general. Confusion in any social situation or not knowing the best thing to do is distressing for me.
if someone asks you to go out with them on a date, then that someone should be not only ready but also willing to pay for all of it, because they're extending that invitation to you...
so no, is not rude to assume this, it's quite common to expect this is going to be the case
any guy that asks you out, and also "demands" you pay for your part... in my opinion is not worth your time, but that's just my personal opinion, now... if he brings up the topic, or asks you, or jokes about it... then yes, he's probably considering that you might want to share the bill, and I think this is fine
so I think the best part is that you just don't bring it up yourself... assume they will pay it all, but also be ready to share the bill, if they bring it up, then don't discuss it, just say it's alright and you two share the bill and that's it... go on with a nice time, hopefully
I used to always pay. It was never a discussion.
Since I always pay it was never a discussion
I always pay for my meal, until it is serious
No, it's pretty straight forward.
No. Whoever suggests it pays
not really. and the guy should pay.
Awkward AF yes
No. I always pay.
