The guy I'm seeing is meeting my parents tomorrow night and we're planning to go out to dinner. We're having a bit of a predicament trying to figure out who pays for what.
My dude is in his thirties, well-established, has a great career and a house and vehicles and all that jazz. I'm in my early twenties, single mom.
My parents don't mind paying, but don't want to offer to do that because they think they'll be establishing a pattern of picking up the tab every time. I could pay, but I think that would look funny and/or awkward, though I have no objections. And we don't at all want to assume my guy will step it up and offer to get dinner - we don't want him to pick up the entire tab either.
What's the procedure on this? We're lost!
