If someone does this because they feel it's a payout, probably not the kind of person I would have a relationship with anyway. I see it someone putting me on a pedestal and I like that. Some people just are these way and that's what I like. Today though, most men aren't this way. Most women don't care if a guy isn't chivalrous, pays, or opens doors.
Dunno, wanting to be treated special because you have a pair of boobs sounds kind of sexist to me. I'd say you might have a "princess complex".

The check comes. It's a bit pricy...about $60 for us. She offers for us to split it, I agree and she gets upset. She said that me asking her to pay is 'tacky' and it will never work between us. She said that I'm not acting like a gentleman. I laughed it off a bit honestly because I did not feel like I did anything wrong.
During the times I've been with her I've paid, which I have no problem with about 75% of the time. I've asked her to add a tip maybe twice. i just feel that I did not invite her out and also that we are sharing our time together. The money thing shouldn't be an issue. I am of equal value also in this when we are sharing time.
I paid a bit more because I added the tip and she scoffed a bit. I frankly though it was funny because I have met women who offer to some degree to pay. I don't think she is looking for a sugar daddy, but the idea of paying when I know she has a good career as well as I do, she should be OK with paying some to at least offer some gratitude or appreciation that I'm spending time with her.
Your thoughts guys?
Really? You are so great that women should be proud to pay in order to show how grateful they are that you are spending time with them?? o.0
I was sort of on your side until I got to that part.
I think you are both loons, and probably meant for each other. Best wishes!
This is the usual female hypocrisy--they demand equal rights, but what they mean by this is all the benefits of equal rights without having to pay the price for those rights (as men are forced to do). Any woman who doesn't pay her share of dating expenses is basically charging for sex, and might as well be standing on a street corner (but that would be a honest transaction).

You are on point. She suggested you split the bill, and you did. Seriously, she sounds like a drama queen...move on and consider yourself smarter than the average bear because it may have worked on the other guys....Enjoy life

Yeah it's amazing how often people screaming about equality really don't want equality. They want to be special, to be better than. Equal means equal.

I am going to give you the benefit of the doubt that you are not painting all women in this negative light.
If I went by my personal experiences all men would be rapists, users, and crazy jerks. Of course, most men are not any of those things.
I don't have to demand equal rights. That fight ended sometime in the eighties.
A date does not equal sex, and a woman who does not pay is not a prostitute. Just like a man who doesn't pay is not a prostitute.
Women should pay their fair share, and I did when I was dating. I like it when a man opens the door, but I would open the door for him too. It's called manners.
Women or men who want to be courted and not have to pay a dime are users. It's plain and simple. If you think this is unique to women, then you have never gone on a date with a man.
