The only one being tacky is her. If she wasn't willing to actually pay anything then maybe she shouldn't have even bothered offering. Better yet, maybe she shouldn't have suggested the place to eat at if she wasn't going to contribute anything to the bill. Maybe it's time to go 'off' again with this girl and find someone more appreciative, less tacky, and more sincere about her intentions.
Lol, she's the one that invited you out. She should have been lucky you agreed to split the bill at all. Run for the hills, man.
She was about to pay the entire thing after it blew up. I thought it was comical to be quite honest. I generally don't mind paying, but I don't like that she expects me to pay for her all the time.
It always amazes me how much time and effort Americans put into "who pays". I swear, it's like some sort of national obsession/mating dance, intricate moves, hidden agendas, secret languages and easy offense, all if which dissolves into a puddle of resentment at the end.
The thing is, OP, if you're half hearted about this girl, you should be meeting for COFFEE not a meal.
If you ARE going to enter into the realms of a Restaurant be aware the pricier it is, the likelier she will expect you to pay. Don't question why, it just IS.
Otherwise, you would've said "lets just meet for coffee". The fact you agreed to go expensive raises the expectations to levels you clearly did not want.

You should have let her pay since it sounds like she wants nothing to do with you dating wise since you didn't pass her little test. After she paid, I would have left her alone. If she's willing to do something that petty, she'll keep doing stuff like that. It won't be comical once she drags you into dating hell.

Oh like I said we are on/off lol. One of my reasons for having reservations about her is the fact that she is an only child and she has a bit of a 'princess mentality'. I feel that she is used to being coddled and treated a certain way. Even the fact that I have a tight schedule and she wants to spend a certain amount of time with me is a bit contested.
That's fine but I need someone that is a bit more independent.
