What are some reasons why men would want to split the bill on a First Date? (Page 2)

[JSmuve]

He wasn't into the girl, he didn't want to feel taken advantage of, he wanted to gauge her personality, he doesn't make a lot of money, he firmly believes in equality

[Gibbons44]

To let her know she's an equal and to avoid it being prostitution?

Also, to signal she won't be getting half if she divorces later, but only what she earned.

[NostalgiaSenpi]

Consider my own experience, three of the four dates I went on just used me for food, having already been in a relationship and made me think otherwise.

[worldscolide]

Because, thanks to feminism. Men and women are equal.. Seriously You can't be a feminist while at the same time expecting the man to foot the bill.

[Freyke]

I only pay for everything when I know who I am dating. If we're complete strangers, it's not happening.

[MysteriousDarkness]

Want to see what her intentions are or that too many women think their time is worth more and guys are are sick of paying for the self entitled type.

[AnusNdaPainus]

To see if that bitch is a rideordie.

“ split the bill” is a euphemism for not paying right?
you go this way I go that way.

[cloud9vortex1234]

She asked me so she should at least pay her bill and honestly should be paying for my bill, but I wouldn't have problem paying my bill if she didn't offer.

[bamesjond0069]

If she makes significant money herself then she ought to pay her share.

If she has slept around casually and hasn't slept with me, she can pay her share too.

Um, equality? We can't selectively disregard traditional gender roles that only benefit one gender.

To filter out the gold diggers, who are in it just to get a free meal or a ATM boyfriend.

Simple fairness. Equal rights = equal responsibilities, or should.

[Still-alive]

Fairness.

proving she's not there for a free meal or just after his wallet

[Still-alive]

That said i still usually pay but i take it as a positive sign if she offers anyways even when I refuse

[zagor]

Because they don't want to spend a lot for the unknown.

[BarryLiverstone]

Some guys do it because they are cheap. Others do it to try and be fair to her.

[msc545]

They don't ending up spending money on someone they will never see again.

[Shy_Steve]

If a Girl did not offer I wouldn't be going on another date with her.

I am perfectly happy to pay on a First date, But if she doesn't offer at least on the second date then She is obviously using me as far as I'm concerned.

[Slim57]

Times are changing, things are more expensive now and paychecks are staying the same

[exitseven]

if the guy was not really serious about the date.

[legalboxers]

they are unhappy with the conversation or the person, can't afford the date (she chooses Prime Rib instead of the chicken or burgers)
