I agree with this, if you ask you pay. If she asks me I offer to split it if she doesn't want to outright pay. The thing that I'm not a fan of is when she asks me and doesn't offer to pay, it bugs me.
I hear you. I have dated a few not very well to do women that asked me if I could take them out. It was never presented poorly so I was ok with it. Who knew, even poor people like to go out

I know this isn't addressed to me, but I wanted to respond anyways. If I cannot afford to take a woman out on a date, I don't ask her out.
Does online count? If so, I had some dates in the late fallish. Around Halloween. But I have since stopped OLD, and my social circle is the worst it has ever been right now. Right now, OLD is my only option, and I'm so burned out of that scene, I just bla OLD.
Between work and my apprehensiveness to date people I don't know, it may be awhile. But, I am really getting to be OK with that.
It's been a long time for me. I actually don't remember the last time I asked a woman out. In reality, I've turned into a workaholic and need to take care of my daughter-aholic. I just don't have time to date or get into a relationship. Not to mention, it seems most women don't like the surprise of dating a guy with a daughter. So I just don't do it.
Hmm, I casually asked a woman acquaintance out for hiking just over a week ago, the third time within the past 4 months. Currently sporting an 0-for-3 batting line right now with this one...
If we're talking asking a woman out explicitly for a date, then slightly over a year ago. If we're talking just asking for a number or conversation with intent to get a number, but that never turned into a situation where it was appropriate to ask for a date, then about four months ago.
I think this should be rephrased to when is the last time you got to third base with a women. A lot of guys will ask a girl out (nowadays unfortunately through passive media like online dating) but they don't know how to drive the interaction. It's pitiful when I log into things like facebook and I see guys complaining that women don't approach them. WTF? This isn't the land of the flowers, as a man you should always drive to get what you want and if it doesn't work out big deal, next.
some of these responses, 6-8 months...? what? you might as well have thrown a poll up there that asked "how do you feel about monastery life".
some of you guys can do better
with the internet and the wealth of free information, there's no use for you guys to be settling.
