If it is "pre arranged" then that's FINE, but the OP didn't think it was.
I've never done Dutch on a first date - EVER, so this is new to me and honestly, I don't know how I would take it. Is this gonna be a sign of future cheapness? Will he really expect me to WANT to have sex with him if I continue to pay for my own dinners, etc.?
LOL! I don't think so, but hey, that's ME. I'm old school in that way.
But I would pay for my own coffee, etc., if this was a person I met online. This way, neither one of us OWES anybody ANYTHING if it doesn't work out.
