Old fashioned I guess, but before I got married alot of the women I dated were single parents. Bacause of this, knowing money can be tight, I always paid, and would often catch the babysitter. When invited over for Sunday afternoon football I would offer to pick up pizza/chicken etc.. If we hit it off I would also suggest dinner and moive with the kids, my treat. This is not because I felt I had to, it was because I wanted to and could afford it. Being a single parent myself I understood the budget breaker a date could be for some. I was blessed with a good job and a dinner/moive was not a financial burden for the week. Money is made to be spent not just saved.
Life is short, you had a good afternoon, don't let the price of one meal ruin it.
crashcop, I like the way you think. What a thoughtful person you are. That's cool.
I've never went out with a guy that wanted me to pay or let me pay (not even for the tip), even if on occasions, I offered to.

Hey are u married? I really like old school...it is way way more better
Hey I think I live closer to him! And before leaving WA I should take one of those cruises to AK Oh, I was talking about Rance. He's single for the moment
Awww. ......I'll have dinner with you if my husband says it's ok. We can go Sizzler and he can watch the baby.
Sizzler! Haven't been to one of those in a long time. I am on a diet until August...when my date comes to Alaska.
Not sure how she feels...but I consider myself...taken...
I guess I'm glad I read this dating etiquette thread. Last night I went on a long and entertaining date and my companion paid for everything. This afternoon I treated us to an early dinner. I think he really appreciated it.
Too tired to go on more date tonight, though.
