I'll pay for a date with a woman, no problem. I mean that's a common courtesy and a gentleman thing to do. I'm not sure why any guy would be hostile either. Unfortunately dating is more of an investment for men than it is for women, who simply need to show up and be won over. That's why I don't really like dating, but if I do date, I generally pay. I guess that is the way I was raised.
More likely what gives is it seems some guys are feeling used for money and are getting an inkling on how some gals feel about being used for sex.
I wonder if this is the result of online dating? It makes it so much easier for a guy to date multiple girls/week, if he wants, so that really ups the ante for him, even if they're cheap dates. Probably there's more of an expectation online for the traditional date arrangement, than there would be IRL.
if its not such a big a deal, then you wont have a problem paying for that dinner or drink then right
I would pay sometimes, if he pays sometimes. But most men i have gone out with even as friends do not let me pay!!!! they make enough money not to worry about it.
Agreed.
I think thats really the bottom line.
Guys, dont put up with it.
From what I have seen men will turn a blind eye to almost any kind of behavior from an attractive woman more then they would from an uglier woman. If they don't want these 'princesses' or whatever they should stop going after looks only then, worry more about the motives. (not going to happen, just saying).

I dont think so..ive only had one girl complain about paying for her own half ..most women are adaptable in real world environment. atleast the women ive dated. but again, except for that russian girl..weirdo.
Very true but dating is like playing the lotto, unless you buy a ticket you will never have a chance to win.
I'm not disagreeing with you. Just seems like some of these guys are more concerned to holding on to their money, then actually going on a date. Hey nothing wrong with it.
