I joke around with Mrs. Chow... when we first met and started dating... I went over to her house and never left.....

I don't know how many "dates" we actually had... we became inseparable........

OP, if you both enjoy each others company and want to date that often, then go for it. Everyone is different and some people really click from the beginning.

Nice. I know a couple who did this. They basically "hooked up" at a bar or party in college, stayed together that night, and have been together night since then. Now, 20 years later, they're still together and have a kid. This is why I laugh at people on the internet who think relationships are doomed if they don't start out with boring formal slow job-interview-style dating and waiting until the fifth date (or whatever) to have sex.

Dates don't have to be expensive, and in my experience women often pay or at least pay their share, particularly after the first date. Plus, if you're a single guy with no kids or expensive habits, there isn't a lot else to spend it on. The real surprise, to me, would be that he has that many free nights to spend with one person immediately upon meeting them. In my experience it usually takes a week or two to find a night that works for both of us for a second date, just based on work, school, social life, travel, dates with other people, family, or whatever else is going on in people's lives.

In my experience, the woman doesn't offer to pay until the 3rd date

Well, still, that's 1/3 of the first three dates that you aren't paying for. Combine that with the fact that not every date needs to involve a $100 dinner bill (especially if you're doing three dates in one week with the same person), and one needn't be wealthy to go on frequent dates. That's all I was saying.

What happened to the bald guy? How did you eventually break up with him?

I don't like to move that fast. I don't like or trust "instant" relationships. Seems messed up to me. What is the rush?
