When you take a girl or girlfriend shopping/out, what does the boy have to pay for? Obviously if you go to the movies, you'll buy both of the tickets and popcorn but whats the go when she asks you to go shopping with her? When she says 'what a nice skirt', is she trying to give you a hint 'buy me this'? What if she says that in each and every shop you go to?
What are generally the musts that boys must buy or pay for when they take a girl out (eg shopping)?

I think that guys shouldn't pay for things like that , only if the boy would want to , or for her birthday , but women also needs to spend the money on the man too, cause I think that men and women should be treated the same, and each do their part

Generally nothing besides the actually date. Food, transportation, entertainment. And window shopping does not count for entertainment.
If a girl says that "oh that's a nice skirt" you should not be buying it for her. I don't care how long you have been dating. Maybe if her birthday is coming up she might say that as a hint. So if you come back and buy it later that is okay.
Other than that only if she is with her father should ever go up to a man and be like "buy me this." If you are with a girl like that, she has deep daddy issues and you should run away.

This is my exsperience The guy pays for dinner out while shopping and if he wants to purchase a small item as a gift that is fine but really I dont think she exspects you to pay for any of her purchases.When she says isnt this a nice skirt she is trying to get your opinion and if you like it she may buy on another day or something similiar if she doesnt buy it then.If she is hinting for you to buy her stuff then she is a very tacky rude girl.I would have to be there to know how it was said to tell you so I guess you can think about it and be your own judge.

I don't think that there are any "musts"--and I CERTAINLY wouldn't be dropping hints that my boyfriend or date should buy me a cute skirt. I might have him stand guard over my purse (real men can handle it) or reassure me that it looks nice, but if I want it I'll buy it myself. But, I'm not into grubbing money from nice guys--some girls are.
Maybe she just likes the company, or maybe she's asking for your opinion about it. You could just say that yeah it is, and encourage her to try it on. If she honestly expects you to pay for her shopping trips, however, it's probably not going to be the best relationship ever. Does she buy her skirts and stuff on her own when you go shopping with her?
Also--does she have a birthday coming up? She might be dropping hints for that.
Good luck!

not all boys pay every time they take a girl out sometimes its the girl who pays. If a girl ask you to go out shopping and if she gives you hint throughout the mall that she wants everything she must be after your money.

Is this a date or are you just going shopping together?
If she says "that's a cute skirt". Say "yeah, that is". don't say "i will buy that for you".
Buy her a meal a the food court or other type of refreshment depending on what time of day it is (or lunch at the restaurant in the mall). And pay for parking if that applies. But don't buy her everything in sight.

If that is ur girlfriend then u should have some hint of what she giving out to you. She might say that in every store but she probably wants you to buy her at least a couple of things she points out but not all. She want to feel that u are willing to do anything for her cause u know what she wants andlikes, even ifu don't buy it then and there surprize one day with it...

if a dude asks a girl out he should also have the balls to cover the check or at least ask to go halfies.
musts
you ask her she want a drink; you saying you wanna buy it
flowers would be nice
when shopping surprise the chick wit a small inexpensive gift(i like earrings myself)
if a girl says somethings nice she dont automatically want it she mite want yo reaction. like if you offer to git it or you ignore her request its just mind games

That question has a simple answer... The boys mind think that is their responsibility of paying for the girl... Like a habit... If they don't they think they are not enough man to do so... so yeah...

it depends on how old fashion you are (and you budget) I generally pay for most things on dates, shopping is kind of difficult though because that gets incredibly pricey, I would offer to buy her a few things on occasion, you dont want to spoil her flat out...
