| Who pays for the meal or beverage on the first date? Posted: 10/26/2009 10:37:01 AM | Just the other night I was invited out for coffee by someone who didn't make an offer to pay for my beverage (despite the fact that, as I happened to walk into the cafe, I ended up approaching him right as he was in line). I admit, I was a little offended. I mean, come on, the dude bought himself a coffee, something to nosh on and even a ceramic mug to take home, but couldn't at least offer to grab me a tea?
If I invite someone out for a coffee, typically even if it's an already established friend, I at least offer to pay for the first round of bevvies. It's just polite behaviour in my opinion. | |
