For the guys who don't pay you don't need to comment that men shouldn't be paying. That is your choice. I am speaking to the traditional men out there who pay on first dates.

I can afford to pay for the food she takes her children. The cost is not an issue.
If she is a self-reliant woman, she may feel that me offering to pay is an insult to her. If she is a woman who struggles financially, she may be grateful for me to make such an offer. But it might also create some ongoing expectations about taking care of her financally in the future.
Yes lot's to consider for sure.
First date?
Only sort of guy who'll be buying for some unknown woman's kids on first date is someone looking to leave a great impression & hopefully get lucky with 1st date sex.
Get real. No other reason.
Most people when they're dating don't want to be saddled with someone else's kids - not their responsibility, finanical burden that isn't theirs, etc. - it's why single parents typically have it harder to find a decent / respectable long-term partner than most.
That’s why I would offer, why is it if the man offer to pay for something then he is trying to have sex? If she has kids that means she has to go home and cook or have to buy food from the place you took her, I would think if a man isn’t ready to bother with children and don’t want the burden but taking a single parent out! That’s someone who wants sex and possibly leave her With an extra one lol
What? lol. Feeding her kids is her responsibility, not the guy she is just getting to know.
If the guy is actually offering to do this - well I guess that's his prerogative. He can do what he wants with his money. But if the woman is asking for it, LMAO. That's just acting entitled.
Made it very clear the woman is not asking for it. It would be an easy answer if she did.
Oh then I guess I misunderstood it. Still, I think it's over the top but like I said, if the guy actually wants to do it, that's his right. But if she wants food for her kids, she needs to be able to pay for it herself and not automatically expect her date to pay for it.
Hell no. Imagine what other bills this gold digging single mom will try to stick you with it what money she’d borrow without repaying. And nothing screams simp more than you paying for someone else’s kids instead of having your own.
LOL.
Okay, but if you end up marrying her, then I assume and would expect that you accept her children as part of the family. If their father is not in the picture anymore, then I would expect that you would raise them the same as you will your own. It's not fair to the children to put them in a less-favored position in the family just because YOU aren't their bio father. They didn't ask for this situation.
If a woman says to her shrink, "He wants me but he doesn't want my kids, what should I do?" The ONLY acceptable advise to her is, "Your kids come first. YOU brought them into the world, YOU are their mother, the only mother they've ever known, and a mother should fight like a tiger to protect her kids. The guy apparently only wants PART of you, the part that comes without the kids. But the kids ARE part of you, and he has to take the whole package or nothing!

Not a first date, but any additional dates I would consider it. Small price to pay to let her know your not just in the relationship for her and you realize she has children.
Eventually, it would be nice to include the children on certain dates so they could get used to me being in the picture, however, that would be at her discretion.
If I know going in she has kids then I’d be willing/expecting to pay. The one partial exception is if she like a ton of kids and it’d be hella expensive. I’d offer to pay hers and put a set amount towards the kids but unless we were getting really serious I wouldn’t pay all in that case.
Depends, 1 finicial situation. If I want expecting that and wasn't prepared then no. Not compromising myself on a first date for your kids.
2 if she asked under any circumstances it's a no. That's just rude and I'll feel taken advantage of.
3 the only way is if I really wanted to impress her and we where somewhere nice. I may offer. Would look super sweet and I would seem like a baller
Say what? 😂
My husband is a traditional man and always paid for our dates. I can imagine he'd have paid for food for a date's kids, but that's just being a doormat.
I come here for the downvotes. 😂 It's probably one person, but thanks for sharing your fan club!
LOL well you got em
I would find it kind of weird and and put on the spot but yeah, I will go ahead and do that. I don’t really like dating women with children because I don’t want to be held responsible I’d rather have my own personal children with a woman that doesn’t have kids
Men stop doing this Bs
. just to get some cat. Then your make questions like this arrise bc people actually think we are supposed to do things like this for women. It's sickening.
She could be taking the food to her booty call who knows lol
Before it comes to paying for her kids meals which I have no problem with. She should mention it before she orders the food for them so no one is caught off guard. If she mentions that she needs to bring home something for them to eat too than I am willing to offer to pay for it as well. If she catches me off guard and expects me to pay I will willingly but it will also be our last date.
Most circumstances would be a no. There could be an exception. If I was something like a friend of the family beforehand and already knew the kid well. But just some random first date where I didn't know the child, no.
Maybe. It depends on how the date went, do I feel she could use the help / is she strapped for cash, do I think she would be offended that I pay for her kids, etc.
All good points.
I would regard that as rude and exploitative. It would like her having invited her friends on the dinner date and them all expecting me to pay.
I would ok with it if I had her taken to MacDonald's.
No because that's not my responsibility, I don't know those kids I have no connection nor relationship with them and no responsibility to them.
If we had been dating for a while then I'd pitch in and help with stuff like that now and again because at point what I stated above would not be the case anymore. But as far as a first date is concerned no I would not.
If I'm interested in her, then her kids are a part of the package, Its an all or nothing deal.
So you are saying you would offer to pay for the extra food for the kids? Yes?
yes I would, but that's just me.
If i know she has kids, and im serious about leaving a good impression, yes ill get something for her kids. Maybe not food but a little thing to show her i will make a good dad.
Lol a lot of guys are just that bad with kids i guess. If you know this woman has kids, you'll know that her kids are priority. They usually are for any parent, especially a mother.
Again, serious date only. Im not into casual hook ups, but if that were the intent, then no, forget the kids
I'd offer to pay for her kids dinner. I'm generous and caring like that
Good for you man.
Thanks coach. It's just how I am.
A few extra bucks towards a kids meal later on is nothing for guys like us. People who bitch and moan about this are just not in our league.
No, but if she had kids I wouldn't be on a date with her to begin with.
I would offer first if I can take care of that as well, I’ll be worried I might offend her if I took the liberty and just did.
It would depend if I knew ahead of time if she had kids. Kids dont eat that much depending on the age. I really wouldn't mind.
No, I wouldn't. That's not part of usual dating customs. Besides, if I'm on a dinner date, it will be too late for her children to eat when she gets home. Just asking would be a deal-breaker.
Not the question.
Hell no!
The sister would be a Chad making a late-night booty call.
They shouldn't and I would neither ask or expect them to do so
No. Her children are her responsibility, not mine.
If I'm on a date then I'm a simp so of course I would be paying and I would also pay for food for her kids, uncle, aunt and Grandma. I'd adopt them too.
You are a simp lol
I would hope that if she was able to pay. She would at least offer to pay for the take home portion.
I would pay for it the first few times. But if the relationship wasn’t going anywhere. See Ya!
First date? No. Dating in general, no. If we are in a relationship, yes.
I saw the video where the woman tried to do that, hell no.
This is a first date, I'm not paying for her kids, if she can't take care of her kids herself, what kind of mother is she?
This isn’t that video
It's already a red flag that she is a simgle mother. If she wants me to feed her family on a first date, I'll be escorting her to the exit and kicking the door closed behind her.
Yeah again not the question at hand but noted.
I did answer your question. Sorry if you missed it.
You didn't. Nobody said she wants this or wants that. You made up some bs.
Your question was a yes/no question. If you couldn't discern the no in what I wrote, that's on you, not me.
LOL ANON
Definitely should not even be discussed on the first date. Full stop. On the second date you should offer to pay for the child meal (s). If he doesn't object to that idea and pay... no third.
Full stop? lol nobody said any discussion was taking place. Stick to the question and try again lol Take your time.
You can post whatever you want.
I’d ask her for a blowjob in the parking lot first lol fuck no I wouldn’t pay for her kids food, they have a father unless he’s dead.
That is ridiculous. This is a date, the goal is to date, not to feed. I owe her kids nothing.
So you do what then? lol
Why would guys do that on the first date?
Read some comments
I wouldn’t have a second date with a woman who asks this of me.
That wasn’t the question
No that seems completely unreasonable and surely sets the tone for future interaction.
Absolutely not
Only once.
She won't see me again.
So instead of just letting her pay for her kids food you will pay for it but never see her again? lol
It's to avoid a confrontation right away.
I saw your update late - I of course assumed that she suggested to do so.
No, but they can have my leftovers.😆😆😆
Definitely not
I would not mind.
If she has kids it is the last date.
I wouldn’t allow it.
Yes i would
Fuck no.
Yes I would,
