If a girl asks a guy to the dance who pays for....?

Question

I'm asking this guy to the dance...and i dont know if im supposed ot pay for dinner and get him a butoneir [sp?]

if i get him the butoneir, do i still give it to him if i dont get a corsage?

im os confused. as you can see i've never done this before...sooo....

Answer 1

You get him a flower, and he gets you one. You may each pay for your own ticket, or he may pay for both.....it's up to you to decide. He may even pay for the dinner, or you may split, but the girl is not supposed to pay for both herself and the male date.

Answer 2

sure. he ought to pay for no longer in basic terms the cost ticket, yet any drinks or nutrition they share at the same time. inspite of the undeniable fact that it rather isn't any longer exceptional to have the girl leave a tip or to furnish 5 money for gas or something alongside those strains. The boy should not be a douche and have her pay for her very own way. incredibly if he asked. and that i may be asserting the comparable element approximately her, if she were the only to ask a boy.

Answer 3

All expenses directly related to the invitation are paid by the inviter. That includes dinner, if that was part of the invitation. You also get to buy the boutonniere. He should get you a corsage if it is a formal affair where such are worn, but you do not condition anything that you do on whether or not he does so. (Of course, if it is something that he ought to do and doesn't, then you may nave second thoughts about inviting him to something else in the future.)

Answer 4

Come on girl we're in the 21st century . Pay for dinner, get him the flower, buy you're own flower and if you have to pay to go in to the dance do it. Show him we have evolved and are independent enough to go all fancy and give him a good time to boot. Have a great time forget about the old ways live it up you will feel more loose and have fun..Great Ice Breaker., and memories for him.

Answer 5

I suppose you mean the Winter Formal?

You buy the tickets and then say something like this:
"So, I was thinking of getting a boutonniere. Would that be cool with you, because I wouldn't want you to feel like you have to wear something that you think is weird. Or we could totally skip the flower thing. But I kinda like the idea." After you guys talk about that, say something like, "Want me to pick a place for dinner, or do you have a favorite? I'm happy to buy since you're my date for the night." Any gentleman should then say, "How bout' you pick and I buy?" Then you should say, "How about we split it?" Don't insult his manners as a gentleman by trying to pay for everything. He'll feel a little insulted. Plan to split it or allow him to pay. Especially if it's your first date... Good luck.

Answer 6

If you ask him, that means you should pay. An invitation means that they are your guest, and you are covering the expenses. If he insists on paying because he is "the guy," explain that you want to pay because you invited him. If he still insists, it's up to you whether or not to let him pay for a portion of the evening.

If you get him a boutonniere, that is a gift. You can't withhold it if he doesn't give you one... that's not nice.

Good luck :-)

Answer 7

Ok. I'm a guy, and I can tell you this.

If some girl/woman came up and asked me to dance. I really wouldn't give a darn who payed for what. I'd just be plain happy beyond belief..

[Picture a dog wagging his tail rapidly. That would be me. Guess I'm easy to please, that's all. lol]

Answer 8

The guy!! always the guy!!!! if he wants to call himself a man then he'll pay!!thats the way mom raised me and thats how it should be these youngsters need to recognize what being a man is all about if he doesn't ,lose him at the dance that'll make him think a little!!!!!!

Answer 9

Go dutch, pay for your own dinners, he buys your corsage and his boutonniere... you pay for the gas.

And don't put out for him.

Answer 10
