girls, when you are on a going-on date, who pays for lunch, dinner, movie etc? or split the bill? how to do it propeerly? it's just somehow akward to me if i have to half of the bill, not that i'm cheap, but where i'm from men absolutely should pay.
guys are welcomed to join in tthis thread as well. would like to know man's thought.
Guys usually pay for the first few dates unless you're just friends.
Often, I try to buy something along the way, like popcorn or coffee, if he's already paid for dinner.
I think it's very sweet, gallant, and old-fashioned for a man to have all of those good dating manners. If he wants to behave that way, I've learned to accept it with grace.
Not that it's easy. I'm a modern woman and it just doesn't seem fair for him to pay for everything - but if he insists I'll go along.
With the guy I've just started dating, we're at that stage. I have finally offered to pay for my share of the meals. He still opens doors.
I'm kinda old fashion I guess but since I am, when I was at the dating stage, I wouldn't be the one to ask a guy out on a date, I also felt the guy should be the one paying for the date.
Now thats not to say I wouldn't pay for something that may come up. For example, depending on where we were or went, I may say something like "hey want some ice cream, my treat".
But as for the date date... guy should pay. In fact, if I had gone out on a date with a new guy and he started halfing up the bill, lets just say I'd pay it but it may have been the first and last date we'd have.
To me it's part of the whole gentleman, manners, and character thing that is what I find most attractive in a man.

And a good man should feel the same way and take care of the meal, drinks and dinner if possible. A young guy who doesn't have the income might need a liitle help at times.
I would take care of the expense. She could make it up in so many other ways.
My approach: I let him pay on the first date. If everything goes well and he asks for a second, I tell him I wouldn't go unless he let me pay. And so on and so forth.
If we're talking about the first few dates then the person that asks for the date pays. However, almost every man I have ever asked out has been adamant about paying. The couple that didn't (this was when I was in college) insisted on paying for their half.
