On a first date, who should pay the bill and why?

[Anonymous]

Should the person who invited pay, should it always be split 50/50, or does whoever earns more take the check?

Who ever ask the other

Always split 50/50

[BadApple69]

Actually neither of these choices.
The guy pays!
You want her to pay or go 50/50 then plan on only one date.
If that’s what you want then that should be your plan.
If the girl is a feminist and thinks it’s wrong for the guy to pay then you don’t want to date her anyway… she will be a nightmare.
You need to set the tone that if she is with you… you’ll take care of her. That means other than special occasions you always pay.

100% agree on taking care of her. Do you think that applies to every date down the line, or just until things get serious?

[Abbycado]

Stop with the anon 50\50 questions. Have some balls. We want those in a guy ffs.

[Asker]

Fair call I'll take the lead on this one. Shoot me a message and tell me what your ideal first date looks like.😉

[SaoirseS]

Whatever you and your date work out. It's 2026.

[MicroJ]

The guy should still pay.

[Asker]

Why did you say so?

[Veronika_p]

I think it's not obligated to gender

[Iron_Man]

Male

[Asker]

Why do you say so?

[Iron_Man]

It’s a sign of good faith to make her happy to please her after that you can split it if you like

[Asker]

That actually makes a lot of sense! Using the first date to show effort and good faith, then making it a team effort after that is a solid compromise.

[Iron_Man]

Yes 👍

[Asker]

Yeah☺️🤝🤗, My account is too new so the app won't let me start a DM yet! Drop me a message whenever you get a chance.

[Iron_Man]

Ok i’ll do that later right now. I’m going over paperwork.

[Asker]

Ok text me when ever you're free

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Man.

[Asker]

Why do you say so?
