Why do many guys like to pay for their girlfriends?

[shaysh87]

Seems like it’s a very common thing Amongst men

My boyfriend is as stubborn as a bull when it comes to me paying for anything, so I can say that my boyfriend is definitely one of them who likes to pay, even when I don’t like it.

Just as some folks have mentioned... tradition. Men traditionally are expected to be providers and protectors. But "society" is not exempt from change. It's definitely different from those old days. I have to admit, I'd like to see women pay on dates or for their boyfriends since we live in a society that is fighting for equality. I think that should go across the board... not just in the work place.

I enjoy paying for my friends as well. I used to be broke so I know the stresses of not having money. If I can help someone a little bit by paying for a meal or whatever activity we are doing I know what that would have meant to me when I was broke.

I think it's part of their nature to want to provide for their family and friends, and to show that they are capable of doing it.

I've never paid for a girlfriend before, my friend Dave got a mail order bride from Thailand though so he had to pay for his one 🤣

The better question is, do girls like paying for their boyfriend once in a while or do they figure sex is enough?

I think that paying for your girlfriend means that she's a prostitute. 😉

But seriously, I think many guys still have the old-fashioned idea that they have to.

It’s the chivalrous thing to do as a guy
