Just as many women as men work now, so and because of feminism, it definitely has changed everything and not much traditionalism going on in America anymore unfortunately
@colaman94 Yeah the past few dates would do that instead of letting me pay the whole thing, sometimes I think they do that just so they donโt feel obligated or owe me anything afterwards, some women think youโll think like they owe you sex because you paid for the dinner
Indeed and similar reasons of just it's a modern world. I don't mind it. I also think that it's more telling or intriguing if women are still interested even after they split bills e. g. for another date or they say meet again or they even say, ๐
One reason is everything is so expensive. A bottle of beer can be six or seven dollars, mixed drink is about ten dollars food a week's salary. Thank you Senile Joe Biden.
Women have been conned. The average girl is in higher demand than the average guy, As this is the case, she has more leverage to get a better deal, but many do not use it.

Because it should be the norm. It's part of gender equality.
Men and women have always been equal in value. I'm talking about simple chivalry where because a man is a man he shows up in that way. Ain't nothing wrong with tradition in that sense. Men and women should start dating to marry that's how they'll see how the small the price is for dates if they're dating to find a forever partner aka husband or wife
Get married bro. Stop dating every woman out there. Get married, date to marry. Have strong Godly values, vet and find Godly woman and then you'll have double income
Nah bro, even peasants used to find ways to entreat their potential wives. Money can never be an excuse if you truly want to pursue and marry a woman. If you're a $500k a year kind of guy you will treat her according to your ability. If you're a $30k kind of guy the same-according to your pocket. A reasonable woman won't expect extravagance if her suitor is of below means. It's the thought that counts. God dig a hole, plant an orchard and tell her that's for you. Money is the one excuse that is the most ridiculous. Be creative about dates, google something bruv. God bless you!
To hell with Chivalry - get a job and pay your own bills like an adult.

Itโs fair if the bill is split, especially on a first date if it doesnโt go right and you donโt want to see each other. Splitting is the only respectful option
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths"
Jk. The guy usually knows that being able to provide is basic. So like if he's dating a guy, splitting is not in question because her other possible suitors won't think twice about paying for the date. Especially since both parties would be serious about Marriage
It just makes sense for me to pay in full when it was my idea. I'm the same way with freinds. I'm not going to suggest we go get food and then expect them to pay.
But friends is different. If you're the guy looking to get married. A potential future wife is big deal. The only problem here is that ร select number of guys date to sleep around or just for the vibes. That's why cumulatively paying for dates can look like something they should split since they wouldn't be taking out their potential future wife out
I'm always going to pay if I invite her, but I don't like the fact that so many women feel entitled to my money. Or they are just looking for a free meal. I don't think it's fair to expect a guy to go all out on the first date when he's still trying to figure out if he even likes you.
Yes, to my current girlfriend who has given me a child and has proved time and time again that she deserves to be spoiled.
You have to remember that on a first date we are basically strangers and have no idea if we are actually compatible. I will do my best to ensure that she feels safe/respected, but I have every right to make sure I'm not being played before I start spending money on her.
May God bless your future marriage in Jesus' mighty name. I see, but I suppose a lot of guys date for the vibes and to hookup so the price looks hefty-the price of paying for dates. But for guys that are serious about marriage from the word go, it's but a small price but women should show Grace enough to pay for some dates as well. In my opinion

And some women insist on paying their way, go figure ๐๐ป๐ I have no qualms about it

Nobody likes to owe debts ๐ with or without interest or tax on top also haha, ๐ sad ๐ข
(Light hearted banter) ๐
@colaman94 oh ok, gotcha
because nowadays women are equal to men. isn't that what women want?
We've always been equal in worth and value. Jesus died for all
no he didn't. yes if he existed, he probably died and that's all there is to it. and no we had vastly different gender roles just one generation ago.
He is risen
this isn't part of the topic and you should definitely stop claiming stuff that you don't know to be true, cause that's a form of lying.

Statistically, you're not going to marry the first person you go on a date with. So why should you be giving them your money? That would be insane.
i wish it wasn't. it's very annoying to have to split bills, pull out two cards, tell them which item is for which card. i hate it all.
The economy and prices are all jacked up so it's only natural people split on dates to help each other out
Get married bro. Stop dating every woman out there. Get married, date to marry. Have strong Godly values, vet and find Godly woman and then you'll have double income
Tell that to my girlfriend, not me
๐๐ do you want to marry her?
Eventually yeah

if that's what you want then find someone who thinks like you?
Was that not always normal? I've never minded splitting the bills.

Itโs fair if the bill is split, especially on a first date if it doesnโt go right and you donโt want to see each other. Splitting is the only respectful option
And sometimes for all we or I know, the other person may 'politely insist' on splitting bills. ๐
Well damn wouldnโt low maintenance be nice lol
Because people don't understand basic etiquette. If you invite someone out you should pay for it.
Not sure, I would pay for the girls always.
That's great to know! I think a person's dating etiquette in this issue, male or female is a reflection of their heart
Aww that's sweet :)
๐๐ I meant it in a serious way not a sweet way. Like seriously
You should message me ๐๐
๐๐ What about
What ever you want :)
I'm Christian I'm not that kind of girl. Unless you have Bible verses or something Godly you wanna discuss ๐โ๏ธ
You never know unless you say hello :)
What's your favorite Bible verse bruv
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths"
Proverbs 3 vs 5-6 is a good one. So you're a Godly guy? Or are you going with the flow, googling Bible verses and stuff
I guess you would have to get to know me better to find out lol
You can message me if you like. But be warned
It's blocking me, you would have to message me.
Money can be an issue in the states too.
So the girl wouldn't be labelled as a Ho!
because feminists ruined that for ya
What do Africans do in Africa?
Definitely not stay hungry all day
Jk. The guy usually knows that being able to provide is basic. So like if he's dating a guy, splitting is not in question because her other possible suitors won't think twice about paying for the date. Especially since both parties would be serious about Marriage
I'll pay if I invited her on the date.
And that's almost always going to be the case
What is your philosophy on this in a general sense
It just makes sense for me to pay in full when it was my idea. I'm the same way with freinds. I'm not going to suggest we go get food and then expect them to pay.
