If the guy you are dating doesn't have enough respect for you to pick up the check, he's a tosser!
You don't know so it's pretty low to disrespect me and call me a tosser.
Just because some people dont conform to your etiquettes does not make them tossers.
1. She asked me out.
2. She was willing to pay.
3. We were already acquaintances and became friends then became a couple
4. We spent time together at places that was pretty cheap.
Whatever was ordered. If it's a date, the guy should pay for it. Period.
On the other hand if it's a business luncheon, of course it's dutch treat.
I guess I should then expect her to stay in the kitchen and cook me meals every day, and generally submit to me, right? After all, we are going after traditional roles here. Unbelievable. Or do you only pick the traditional roles that benefits you, and when it doesnt benefit you its "outdated" and "we are in 2010 now"

The whole thing is silly. It's ridiculous to expect a man to pay for all these dinners for random first dates. The dh and I rarely go out to eat, but we did as a treat the other night. It was $140 and this wasn't fine dining. I don't see how people can date like that or why such an expense is an expectation.

I pick the rules for my life, you pick the rules for yours. No sweat.
However, the biggest turnoff is dating someone who is overtly CHEAP! It's a glimpse of what your life would be like with them if you "settled". I don't particularly enjoy the idea of pinching pennies for the rest of my life. Show me da money honey!

A male critter who doesn't even cover his own expenses IS most definitely a tosser! Now, if you go for sugar mammas who for some unknown reason are enamored by you, then it's her business what she does and you can fully enjoy it, but refrain from recommending it to men.

If the guy doesn't want to pay for dinner, perhaps he should only have invited the gal out for coffee?
If he's inviting for dinner, he's gonna pick up the tab. It would be expected by me. Anything less and I go home in a taxi...alone...with no chance of a repeat date. Period.
