Nice and simple. Is your time more valuable than mine? Is their any LOGICAL reason why we shouldn't pay 50/50 for a date. Is it cheapness? Are you an amateur escort? Help me understand why a guy should pay for the date.

Not again? If you ask a chick out, isn`t it reasonable to expect to pay for the company? If she asks you out? a sense of gratitude? Or you can sit your azz home alone and save money?

Help me understand why a guy should pay for the date.
Because you may want a second date.
You are not all that and a biscuit guy. If you ask a woman out, you need to pay. Your d*ck is not enough to get them to go dutch.

"In the beginning, there was man; similarly, in the beginning of the relationship, it is the man who pays. The first two months provide guys the opportunity to prove they’re solvent, capable and understand the social conventions of dating -- and all are three important qualities ladies will be looking for in a date."
This is from ASKMEN dot COM. I assume you would probably find this to be a good source as it is NOT a womens website.

I love it. Using that type of logic. Basically what you're allowing a woman to do, I mean a female to do is merely wait to be invited everywhere. We're all adults, w=how about we pay for our own ways?
How can a female expect me to treat her as my equal if she wants me to treat her like kid. Equality right? Capitalist attitude in the work place, but a socialist view in the dating world. Sounds fair to me. Not!

Of course he does. He also believes it's 100% the womans fault when her man leaves her because she "chose" him (and knew he would leave? I guess?)
Apparently he also gets "tons" of emails saying how awesome he is and has a date with a woman who read his posts and thinks he's fine. (news flash, all she wants is some c*ck)
This man will never get a date from a smart woman, only the dumb ones who read his profile and not his forum posts.

I went out on a short date w/ a very lovely young lady last night, & picked up the tab for our 3-4 drinks that came to @ 20 bucks.
This was after a full salmon dinner that she cooked, complete w/ 2 bottles of quite decent wine. She probably spent $75 minimum, not to mention the very nice dessert later.
But the first time we went out, I paid for the whole date.
Of course, I'm a sucker like that.

OP, you know this subject has come up rather regularly right? There are women out there that believe dating should be 50/50 but they are a rare find. Dating is nothing more than a wh*re John relationship with most sappy men so just find out ahead of time if the woman is okay with paying their half. If they aren't, on to the next one for you. It will take a lot more effort on your part, but you can find women who are after just more than free meals and gifts and actually want to get to know you as a person if you try hard enough.

The best thing you can do for yourself is never ask another woman out for dinner ,a movie
or any event that might cost "You" money ..
Think of all the money you will save ..

I work, I own a house, I own two cars ( one is a show car), I raise 3 kids on my own, I have flat screens in every room, i pay for a gym membership, i cook, i clean, i mow my own lawn...............Everything I have I paid for with my own blood sweat and tears.
NO man pays for ANYTHING I need or buy or want. Now if a man asks me out he is paying for dinner or drinks period.

So because he doesn't want to be a sap like most guys here he all of a sudden is poor and works at McDonalds? I will go ahead and guarantee that you and most guys here have gone on dates with women that simply only wanted a free meals. Since they know most guys will pay, they go on multiple dates and might even get the guy to buy them a gift too. Then then end it and move onto another sappy guy. But hey, as most guys here have posted, they are okay with paying for everything so of course the women will take advantage and get all the free stuff they can.
