depends on what kind of date and how often you go out...usually if it is an every weekend thing...you pay your own part...if it is a special occasion...the men usually pay unless it's like his birthday or something then you should pay...as self sufficient women we cannot expect the respect of being one without showing we are one...if we ask him to pay our way all the time...we're not showing that...we're showing him we're needy or selfish.

Been divorced for over a year after a 22 year marriage and he's out of a relationship he was in for 38 years and what I'm trying to say is, depends on the circumstances and what kind of income you both make.I for the most part pay for my meal when we go to a restaurant or just pay for the drinks which sometimes is as much as the meal. LOL But seriously, I think it depends on the two of yours relationship. In this day, I would hope she would offer to pay and if he says NOT to worry about it then she may make the comment, maybe next time? If the guy is in a real good income bracket, I probably wouldn't offer at all. Make sense? Maybe I'm a rare breed of female?

When I'm out with my man If I can pay I do or pitch in...but there times I can't afford it and I let him know before we go out that I'm short on cash...Women who expect the man to pay are either old fashioneed or shallow.
If it bothers you say something like I think you should take me out this weekend. or something along those lines unless you want full blown confrontation

Not at all. I'm 28 and he's 30, we're both employed, we both have kids, bills, etc. and I just think it's rude to expect him to pay for everything. I work so that I can have money for things that I want, and I want to go out and have a good time with him, so I don't mind paying.

No, why should he pay for everything? If you both have an income, it seems more than fair to me to put in your share. It can be nice if he pays for you, but it can be nice for him you pay the next time... If you are married & share your life, why not share the money too, so then it doesn't matter who pays the bill...

My man and I usually share the cost or take turns buying. If it is something he wants to do, for instance his kind of restaurant (we have different tastes), I will let him pay. If it is something I want to do but he is not very interested in it, I will pay. I don't think that either person should have to pay the total cost. The only time I have ever let guys pay, in the past, was when I really wasn't interested in them for anything but their money.

It is always nice to have the offer of the guy to pay for all, but I never accepted, I enjoy paying my own way and I wouldn't want my date to get the idea that I am any way obligated to him for the night out... have fun!

No. if I ask, I expect to pay unless he puts up an aurgument.
If he asks, I do expect him to pay - but I can pay for myself if he doesn't say anything.
Then I will think he is a loser for not even implying that he wants to.

If the guy asks a girl out, he should pay. He has asked the girl to accompany him and therefore is the host. If it's more casual, like, "we should go to the movies sometime" then it is a thoughtful gesture to offer to pay.
