I hate football.

And it's true, it's rare that I'd go out to eat. We're far more likely to eat something she's cooked up at home. But if we do get pizza or subs, I'd pay for them.

My question for you is, as the guy, should I pay for her coffee? I don't mind, and I'd actually like to do it. But would that be too forward? I mean, we're not officially dating, so I don't want her to think I'm jumping the gun by assuming we're in a relationship when we're just meeting for the first time. I'd hate to scare her off by seeming too eager to be official.

What do you think?

Thanks
Mackinac

PS. You might see me on this forum in the future with more dating questions. Thanks ahead of time for the patience.
IMHO if you as someone out then IMHO I would Pay!

I always paid for my dates. It was the right thing to do.

Just buy the coffee, especially if you plan on making a second date with her.

If you are a man, first few dates are when you pay. Afterwards, the person who ask should pay or go dutch or whatever
