that have boyfriends and husbands who take them nice places and buy them nice gifts and help them with their bills or when they are having hard times but I only seem to meet guys that are cheapskates. If they were poor I could understand but they can afford nice cars and stuff for themselves but they won't even buy me coffee. I would like to have a man who would take me some nice places as I really don't want to go out unescourted. If I meet a guy who seems nice, he only wants to stay home and watch tv, and his idea of a date is to pick me up too late to go out anywhere and watch tv at his house. that's ok sometimes but I wish I could find someone to go places with that wouldnlt' be afraid to spend a little money. I went out with one guy to a restarant and he only ordered us chips and salsa. I know he could have sprang for a meal but didn't even offer. This was all we had after spending hours together. Where are the generous men? I am 40 looking for someone arouond my age.

no I don't come across as a goldldigger or anything. when they offer me coffee and ask if I want a pastry, I only take the coffee. I even dated one guy several times and he spent nothing on me so I think i have been more than tolerant and reasonable but I am tired of it and want a guy to feel he has to try at least and not feel that he is so great that he doesn't need to impress me.

My advice is to meet guys at different places then, go to more upscale bars, restaurants or even grocery stores and see what you find. There is a difference between cheap and frugal but I know what you mean. Good luck!

Money isn't the thing you should be worrying about. Find a guy who shares your interests .The more time you spend together, the more comfortable you will be with each other. You need to get to know each other before you really start letting someone in to your life. Perhaps the guys you have dated did not see you as a woman they wanted to invest much time or money on. Work to change their minds.

How involved were you with those men? Do you think they would write about men who are cheapskates as much as they write about men who aren't? No, they wouldn't. It just doesn't make for good bragging. And do YOU spend much money on THEM? I bet you don't! Good night!

Sorry to hear about your issues, but you are setting yourself for disappointment comparing yourself to other ladies. All that glitters isn't gold. Dropping subtle hints may work. If he comes over too late, tell him so. They sound like they are still boys in many aspects.

Do you come across as a golddigger? That might be why the men are so stingy with you.
