OP, this is between you and your gf primarily, not the third wheel.

Your relationship with your gf is the one which matters.

You NEED to discuss this with your gf BEFORE you three go out again.

All other responses are cowardice, which never pays.

Communicate successfully or die. ;)

unless you're hitting both afterwards, you're now up shit's creek with this. only way to get out is to take with your girl prior to going and chances are that won't work out so well for you either.

Absolutely not. How did you even end up paying the first two times? Just be a man and take the bill and say "we each owe $33.33. I'm putting in 66.66 for for me and Girlfriend".

I usually pay for all 3 when these situations occur, but I'm a nice guy.

Question for you and the OP: Do you always pay for your gf, for everything? Movies, dinners, lunch, etc?

Wut? My wife and I have separate spending, and it is AWESOME. Literally saved a ton of arguments.

The main thing is, has she offered? I think not man...

For me it's the 3 date rule. If a women has not offered to pay for 'anything' then I'm not going to call her...

Shes robbing you blind man.

Oh man, you're not only picking up the bill for your GF every time, but you're also picking up her 3rd wheel as well? You're the definition of a simp.
