Depends on where they live. Say you're in NYC and have student loans, it's not a whole lot.

That's not how it works, and just because someone makes more does not mean he now just took on a new special needs child.
Yet it seems he feels entitled to hers, not the other way around.

There would be no second date if a man I'd just gone on one date with was expecting me to save up my money to spend on him. I don't care so much about their financial circumstances, but rather his expectation that a second date should cost so much money that she needs to save for it.

Financially, it seems neither the OP, and her date is in the position to date.

That's true. I never had any student loans.

Me neither, but hearing my friends talk about it made me realize how debilitating it is

It's really funny to see how so many women on here react when the lady actually has to pay. Oh, how difficult a woman has it.....

Seriously, if a woman was asking a guy when the next time he was going to take her out.. it'd be viewed as a great thing. You want to know why guys have to use PUA and act uninterested? This is why.

Doesn't seem like a very good idea to go to college and then move to NYC if you're only making 50k.

regardless of whatever gender wars have inevitably gone down in this thread, he sounds annoying.
