I'm a very generous guy when it comes to my women.

Hypocritical talk. Oh! Wait! You're a "lawyer". Well, that explains it then.

cheap dates? boy do i have a lot lmao! i was on a date a long time ago with a guy who took me out to mcdonalds i couldnt believe it. didnt really have a chance cuz the movie theatre was right in the same plaza. it was the cheapest date ive ever went on!

i went on dates where the guys didnt take me out period! i had to eat b4 he came and i thought that was the most selfish thing i have ever seen in my life! i was like u asked me to meet u yet u dont offer to go grab a bite to eat? the answers i got was im broke blah blah. if i went to their house, no food to offer me either! im like why did i bother 2 go to ur house if ur not gonna feed me? im a guest in ur house for ****'s sakes!

that was why i didnt like goin on dates with guys at all! the son of a ****es didnt wanna spend any kind of money plus i had no money to spend now i wish i did spent money for myself instead of relying on them! none of them werent old fashion and i believe in a guy should pay for a lady even if shes a ****. if hes the one who offered, then he should pay capital period!

so yea, cheap dates = cheap mother****er. i knew right then i wouldnt like the guy at all and was glad to write him off..next. i didnt ask to take me to pf changs just somewhere decent not mcdonalds!

I met this guy at the local starbucks coffe shop, he was at a talble waiting for me. We talked for a half hour and he had no coffee, no drink, no snack, and he did not ask me if I wanted anything. Another hour went by , HE STILL DIN NOT BUY NO COFFE, DRINK, NOTHING! then he asked me if I wanted to go to Best BUY WITH HIM BECAUSE HE WANTED TO LOOK AT COMPUTERS! i TOLD HIM i HAD TO LEAVE, THEN AFTER I LEFT HE WENT TO THE COUNTER AND ORDERED HIMSELF A CUP OF COFFEE! How rude!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What a cheap skate!!!!!! I refused to go out with him again when he asked me too! I cal him a stingy but to him over the phone!

I think I win.

I got this girl an $800 plane ticket to visit me once because she said she missed me and wanted to visit me. She was going through a rough spot, so I did it.

A lot of stuff happened during the visit that I won't go into. I'll just say that she was a completely different person than I had met previously when I saw her in her hometown.

When it came time for her to go home, I was going to ride with her on the train because traffic was absolutely horrendous at that hour. I didn't have any cash on me, so I asked if she had $4 for the train, and she said no... this is 15 minutes after we stopped somewhere because she wanted to grab something to eat and I watched her change a $20 for a $5 meal.



Hey, at least she didn't ask me to pay for her meal though.

nobody forces you to buy girls drinks, if you dont want to buy then find someone else that d pay for their own drinks or buy you drinks, thats it very simple. i dont know whats the point of ****ing about it

1st meets are for a soda or coffee. I dont mind paying for mine. If a man asks me out and does not "offer" to purchase my soda, I dont think we are going to be a good match.

I've never dated "cheap" men.
The men I have dated believe in courtship and dating, not tit-for-tat.
Must be different for the younger generations.


Same here Landra......I have never paid for a drink/dinner in the few years I've been dating. I never offered and they never asked me to pay. I think it my age group and also the type of men I date.

How willing are you to do the asking out? Would you agree to go out with some one if you are not interested in them? The person who is doing the asking out is doing the favour. They have the guts to do the asking out. They risk themselves to rejection. And they do some thing that is an essential part in the dating process to make the wheels move in motion or else nothing will happen.

Yet the person who does this get's penalised for it.

There is no logic in it what so ever when people say who ever does the asking is the one who pays.

It's obvious that many women just use this excuse because they know that they are not willing to do the asking out themselves.

So just because you and many other women want to be unfair, it somehow makes it right and any man who thinks like me is in the wrong? ROFL

It's this simple, if you are not willing to pay for your own way, you are the one who is cheap. You are the one who is in the wrong.

If you can’t come up with a logical opposing argument instead of just saying "well ask other women and come back to us?" This proves my point

Because there isn't an logical opposing argument isn't there?

Every SINGLE time I've had a first meet or subsequent dates with a gentleman, I've offered to get the first round or second round of drinks or coffee, or I've asked what my portion of the bill was.

And every SINGLE time, I've either been laughed at (I'm not kidding - the guy laughed right in my face), lectured sternly that I was to "NEVER offer again whenever you're with me," or thanked for my offer and told, "absolutely NOT."

I have YET to meet a guy like the ones I always read about in these forums who are angry about women not paying on a date and calling them "gold diggers." LOL. In my day, a gold digger was a woman who tried to align herself and/or marry a RICH man in order to suck him dry financially. "Gold digger" CERTAINLY wasn't defined by a woman who allows and/or expects her date to pay for her $18.99 Shrimp Scampi special.

In either event, I have YET to encounter this type of man in the outside world. This, of course, has just been based on MY experiences and no one elses.

Has worked out plenty of times actually one girl paid the WHOLE dinner which was about $50 and refused to let me pay. I am going dutch on everything until I am an official couple with a girl sorry that is just the way it is.

Ok some of the ladies are sounding like women of ill repute, you mean all some men have to do is buy you drinks and dinner a few times and they get "some"!!! that's much cheaper than a escort, not that I would know!!!
It's so profound to hear some of the people say, "I have never paid for date"!!! You make it sound as though you are special....and there is something wrong with a woman that does.... putting words in your mouth! Honestly, some men don't mind paying for sex no matter what the cost, but I'm sure you have learned that in life nothing is "free".

Is there any difference between a cheap date and an expensive date(intellectually), what I'm to take away from this thread is that a man in an Armani suit is not cheap and the lady he dines with is. There's a riddle in there for the wiser....

Some people have stated they don't date cheap men, I would like to know how it is you know this...just by someone taking you out on a date and he pays...does not equate to,
them not being cheap....I thought this would be obvious, some have much to learn in life.
My dates cost nothing....after a few weekends of hiking and packing your own lunch, and carrying my canoe, ya I will splurge.

Just because she had a $20 doesnt mean she had extra cash to do everthing else. Maybe she has to pay $15 for parking or some other expense before she got home?

Its called manners! If a man invites me out, he should be willing to cover the cost. If I invite him out or prepare a meal for him, I will be ready to cover the costs. Its really not that difficult.

Sorry, I guess I'm old school. I pay. Period. If she insists on paying something I'll let her get the tip. Am I expecting some kind of "return gesture" for my paying? The only thing I'm "expecting" is to have a pleasant time, good conversation and some laughs. Anything "else" that may happen is just a bonus.

If she's fixing us a dinner, I'll ask what she needs for the meal. If she says she's got it covered I'll still ask what I can bring. If I'm fixing dinner, I'll get all the fixin's, if she wants to bring something, sure, that's cool.

But, as always, that's just my opinion.

^^^^Have you read some of the posts, they "might" pay for the tip , if it was a good date....so what is considered a "good date". They donot seem to understand how ironic that is, and retributive of their own character, not so flawless after all.
You are not bringing anything new to the table, menial and benevolent at best... to some of these ladies it's trivial, nothing they have not experienced.
But stating you will pay! hah! what happens if she insists on paying and will not back down, they are out there...you are now shall we say "being new schooled period".

I had a first date on here where I had the guy meet me at a local bar/lounge restaurant that serves free pizza and I ordered a glass of juice for $4 (this was during dinner hour) and he did the same. When the bill came for $8, HE paid, but I didn't notice if he had left a tip. On the second date he took me to a nice park and we walked through the trails, and we talked about hard economy. Then on the next date, he picked me up for dinner, and ended up taking me through the drive thru at at fast food restaurant and even brought a coupon (which the clerk was really ghetto and gave him a hard time). I didn't want to be a b*tch and complain about it, so I just took it with a grain of salt (I am a sweet and frugal, practical girl) . Mt roommate was very upset about it and told me to stop online dating that it is dangerous and that this guy must have come from da hood... not taking me out to eat at one of the nice places which I am accustomed to going to eat (full course, sit down meal). We are in out thirties, for crying out loud. I am not so sure about going on a third date. He said he knows someone at the doors of some clubs downtown. I used to know someone at the doors when I was 21, hahaha.
