Honestly, if I was broke I would rather spend what money I had on clothes, and not eating out. At least I would look good being broke.
Mikala's reading my mind.
Like seriously, if you think of Maslow's Hierarchy of needs this kid is still at his base level. Maybe a little higher but you're basically going to be a sugar mama until he can get on his own two feet.
Last time we went out to eat, I was on the phone with someone when the check comes
You were on the phone while out to dinner???? That's kinda rude
Also, if he's broke then you guys probably shouldn't be eating out more than once or twice a month. I agree that $1000 is a lot to spend on clothes but keep in mind that clothing is a necessity, spending $25 on dinner is not.
exactly. That dude would get bashed mercilessly if the situations were reversed. How dare he allow a poor college student pay for him when he has a job!
A guy or girl should be bashed, it doesn't matter the gender. Anyone feeling that the other person should be paying for them is pretty ridiculous imo.

Apparently it's not ridiculous. Apparently all men are supposed to pay for everything and all women are supposed to do is sit around the house and socialize on CD.
Why are you with this guy? How did this pairing happen? How long have you been together? Have you invited him over to dinner, so there's no waiter to tip and no bill to pay? That would be a generous gesture.

I guess you didn't read my thread carefully. He paid most of the time we go out to eat. It's been like couple of weeks since he stare at the check for so long and when I say I'll pay for that he lets me. So I pay like 2 out of 3 times now.

It started out this way. he's my little sister's boyfriend's best friend. My sister's boyfriend introduced me to him.
