Whats wrong with going 50/50 on dates etc?

if you’re going to say ”its not” dont even bother answering. this is obviously aimed at people who DO think it is.

I love when women offer, but the answer is always no. The hard truth is that men and women are valued differently and value things differently.

I don't want equality in all things. I like our differences. I like women who like those same differences. I'm not an extreme traditionalist. I can cook and clean. That's all fine. But I am traditional in the sense that I like dichotomy in my romantic relationships.

That all is reason enough, not to mention it's awkward.

Debating the split of a bill or whose paying is unneeded stress to what otherwise should be a fun and lighthearted date. Money is not a topic for discussion on dates. Then to even consider ending a date with that awkwardness? Hell no.

[bunniesrcute]

money isn't always awkward

[InknKink]

It's not the money. It's the situation of deciding do I pay, don't I pay. Do you pay, don't you pad. Do we split the bill or don't we split the bill. In an indecisive experience. It's a mood killer right before the most important part of the date... how it ends.

[bunniesrcute]

it takes less than a minute.. you decide if you make it a mood killer or not

[InknKink]

That's not how women work.

You can be the smoothest operator in the closing of a split bill. You're not getting a kiss goodnight or a second date. It goes against one of a mans core attractive traits of provision.

Any woman with optionality will have men who are more than comfortable accepting the financial responsibility of early dating. Splitting a bill is an easy way to disqualify yourself for something as basic as accepting the financial responsibility in early dating; especially given we're the one initiating.

Men... just pay the fucking bill...

then thats your problem if ur ego is too big. women are mostly always fine with splitting.

[InknKink]

Ego would me arguing with someone that my beliefs on a topic are universal and absolute. All the while having zero experience on dates with attractive women. That's ego.

Remind me again how many dates have you taken women out on with a male/female dynamic?

[bunniesrcute]

No, thinking you need to pay for her every time is ego.

[Tangxiaoxue]

It should be fine, it depends on the person. Everyone has different ideas.
