Guys: Do you ever pay for female friends when out with them? (dates, boyfriend)

[Doll Eyes]

what's the point? each person can pay for themselves or shouldn't be going out on activities that cost money then.

No. The human wallets that they refer to as 'boyfriends' spend enough money on them and they do not need anymore charitable contributions.

Perhaps I want to attend an activity that costs money with my friend?

Yea so? Attend an activity that costs money then and pay for yourself. That's the point I was making.

The reason behind this question is that I went to the movies with a friend who I sort of have a crush on, I was the one who asked if he wanted to see the movie, and he paid. I'm not delusional, I know that it probably doesn't mean anything at all...but I figured that I would hear some opinions anyways Thanks everyone!

My male friends didn't pay for me because I couldn't afford to pay for myself - they simply insisted on paying. Sometimes I pay for my friends, too - but it's not because they can't afford it. It's simply because I want to treat them.

I have one male colleague I lunch with pretty often. We take turns paying. Same goes when I go out with my friends (independent of gender).

Sometimes it does - sometimes it doesn't.

If my friend can't afford it?
Is it a big problem for you if I buy a ticket for my friend?

I didn't say you couldn't afford to pay for yourself. All I said was...people should pay for themselves especially if it's friends. The thread is asking about male friends paying for women. A woman friend should pay her own way and the same with the male friend. That's all, that's it.
