Who is supposed to pay for the bill if the guy asks the girl out on a date?

[CAPTAIN-OBVIOUS]

The guy is supposed to pay.

The bill is supposed to be split evenly.

The bill is supposed to be split evenly.

Either reject the guy if you don't want to be a grown-up and pay for your own sh*t, or grow the f*ck up. This "the guy always has to pay, since he does the asking" is so retarded. Like, I don't get it. This simping crap is outdated, and "ladies" don't exist anymore. I've met almost no women, besides one, who actually deserved to be simped to, by getting a free dinner and wine.

I think men under 40 who do that are absolutely pathetic. They're admitting they have nothing to offer to a woman but money. Chads and Tyrones don't pay for women's dates. I'm not either of those, but I'm not an idiot who needs to bribe a woman into liking me, either. Especially modern women. If she can't like me for free, she isn't worth my time.

But sure, you other eight men can be total simps and offer nothing else to a woman but free food. I'd rather not even deal with dates than buy into this pathetic simp sh*t.

Check out poll results from women

[MCheetah]

Not at all surprising.

Like I said in another post, it took my entire twenties to realize I'd rather be single than with the wrong person. Seems like most men never learn this lesson.

[loveslongnails]

Oh no, not THIS toxic question again. LOL I believe the asker should pay, except if you ask me! LOL. In that case, unless the date is a total bomb and I want to walk out, I'm still probably going to pay for it. If I was asked and I accepted, it means it's someone I'd have asked myself but had not done yet, so in my mind there's no difference and I'm glad she was bold enough to ask! (Only once in my life was I so shockingly disappointed with a date that I left.)

I also believe that if a guy accepts a date and expects a woman to pay for it without even offering to buy or split, he's got no class. How is that any different than guys who accuse women of accepting dates just to get a free meal?

[Screenwriter]

It's according to your tradition. Many people say if you're the asker, you pay. I think it's negotiable. Is this a first date? Should always be Dutch. Until you're officially dating, everyone should foot their own bills. Then there are no regrets over bad dates. If it's a loss, you've lost some time.
'
And go on CHEAP DATES!!! Walk in the park. Coffee or tea at a coffee shop. Farmer's market walkabout. Bike ride. Lunch and dinner can cost. There's no point in breaking anyone's bank. And MAKE IT CLEAR about the financial situation from the start.
"I always go Dutch on a first date/a coffee shop date, no matter who asks whom. I hope that's OK." If it ISN'T, then you shouldn't be going out with this "free mealer" anyway. I hate cheapskates, and expecting someone else to pay your way who's a stranger is being extremely cheap.

[melanieeeB]

I do expect him to pay on the first date but every date afterwards I don't give a shit.
I just don't like splitting, it feels so weird and I really like to just kinda take turns, I do that with friends, with family and with guys I'm seeing. Everytime we're out one person pays and the next time I do and then so on

[AviatorTom]

The asker is always the one who should pay... unless something different is arranged in advance. That goes for guys and girls

[Chazmatazz269]

That’s between them. I never split a bill evenly, because most women can’t match my appetite and many won’t match my tastes, at least not early on. Either i payed, cuz i asked, or i insisted on going Dutch. Usually depending upon how well the date went in my opinion.

[slatyb]

I don't care who is supposed to pay. If I ask a woman out, I expect to pay. If she insists I will let her but it's I usually a sign that she doesn't want a second date and doesn't want to feel obligated.

[Rania05]

I believe regardless of family, friends or simply knowing each other, the one asking out should be paying for everything and mentally me prepared from the start

[jshm2]

Depends how the date went.

If no cheese, then a split bill.

If the guy was the one to call the date, then the guy. But, if the girl, then the girl.

[genericname85]

depends on the wording. if i say "i invite you to lunch with me", that means i'll pay for you. if i say "let's grab lunch together", that means i expect you to pay for yourself.

[Prettygurl12]

Unless otherwise specified, the one who asks is the one who pays.

[RandomGuy1030]

What a convenient way to be a feminist

[pewter_moon]

Split until a solid relationship forms. My thoughts.

[Anonymous]

I think if you invite someone out, you have an obligation. If it's just a f2f meet, ideally, it'd be 50:50 otherwise.
All and agree at the start of the meeting.

[MCheetah]

And THAT is why I don't ask women out anymore.
It's not a meeting between two people to see if they like each other, anymore. It's a business transaction. And people are fine with this.
At least with prostitutes, sex and a good time is guaranteed.
And how often do women ask men out or offer to pay for a man to spend time with her? Exactly.

[Opinion Owner]

@MCheetah yep, that's what I hear. And some are just in it for the food.

[TacosRAwesome]

Each pays for what they have unless someone volunteers to pay. Not a fan of even splitting especially if values of items are quite different.

[shortster]

If you ask someone out; the expectation is that you pay. This is common courtesy. So unless it is discussed beforehand; the asker should always pay.

[douride2]

The person that does the asking should offer to pay. I know I pay if I ask someone out.

[TroyDT2]

I think the asker should pay unless they discuss otherwise beforehand.

[BJP21]

The guy usually does unless there's an agreement to split it.

[Anonymous]

The bill should be split... well, unless of course she is a prostitute, in which case he should pay.

[Anonymous]

You want she spreads her legs for you
And you can't even afford buying food for her on date.

Not fair dude. You should pay every date..

[chaser3233]

If I asked, state That paying, specific “ it’s my treat”. If she offers to pay, I’ll except and leave the tip👌🏾

[Curiosity2006]

The Restaurant should! It's Christmas!!!

[Guy13]

Guy always.

[jh16896]

whoever asks out the date
