Ever let your date pay for dinner?

I have been going out with this girl for a few weeks now and we have been going out to dinner alot. Every time I grab the check and say I got it and the last few times she offered to pay and I still say I got it and she rolled her eyes at me like she was pissed. So this weekend I finally let her pay for dinner.
Have you ever gone out with a girl who wanted to pay for dinner occassionally and get pissed if you just take care of it?
 
Yeah. We ended up splitting the bill for the night - I'd pay for entertainment (like two tickets to a movie) and she'd pay for dinner. Or vice-versa.
 
Very rarely - though, every once in a while she would have a very specific idea in mind, and call to invite me to dinner; in that case sometimes she'd pay. Her parents also offered to buy us dinner several times, for various things, though they wouldn't come with us. Just give her the money and send us on our way.

She would pick up the tip once in a while too, when I paid the bill - I have a bad habbit of not carrying cash with me 😱

some women get offended because they believe you don't think they are capable of paying. You can usually tell if they're serious. Let them take the next one.

Then again, some women are just really nice about "the rule" and offer to go dutch.
 
first few dates, i always paid.

if it becomes a "relationship" than i think it is healthier if she pays. i'd rather she stay with me because she likes my company and not because she feels obliged to do so or because she is a money grubbing w. . . well you know what i mean. 🙂
 
Are you sure she knows she's going on dates with you? She could want to pay so you don't get the impression that her spending time with you is something that it is not. But I doubt you'd be that clueless. 🙂

I agree with PlatinumGold, you pay at the beginning, she can pay later.

Yah that's how it worked out with my fiancee and I. I would pay for dates at the beginning, but after things got serious, we started splitting things to save cash. I guess it doesn't really matter now because our funds will eventually be one lol

yup

heres the thing, if i were a guy, i'd want to know how much the girl is willing to commit to the relationship too.

you hear it all the time here at ATOT in YAGT, i did all this stuff for her and she left me.

well mb it's because you never let her commit herself to the relationship.

relationships are a two way street.

i guess i should have probably posted this in the waynetek thread, 2k in 4 months and she just wants to be friends.
 
she doesnt want you to pay so she doesnt feel obligated to sleep with you

if she offers to pay, offer to split (not like oh i had this and this and water, but like just down the middle)

Same, this works pretty well.

If a girl expects me to pay all the time and doesn't offer to pay atleast half, then she and I aren't going to be together long. I'm not going to empty my bank account on her behalf.
 
"LET" her pay... alright you sexist pigs...

if a girl wants to impress ME, SHE'S got to be a GENTLEWOMAN and pay for my dinner, and hold the door open for me, and not expect sex afterward. If she messes up anything, then she can just go bark up somebody else's tree. I don't have time for loosers.
