it's a date. let him pay. but bring money just in case so he knows ur willing to pay or share the payment. maybe afterwards ask him if you can treat him to an ice cream or ask him out on another date where you can pay. just go and watch the movie put ur hand on the arm rest and see if he'll hold it.

Traditionally, the guy always paid. Nowadays, the rules are less clear, but most ppl will agree that if someone extends the invite, he/she should pay. Be happy that the guy paid. I once heard of a story where friend #1 asked friend # 2 "would you like to join me for lunch?" Friend #1 brought 3-4 guests and when the bill came after the meal, the waiter put the bill in front of friend #2 and friend #1 said nothing. Friend #2 ended up paying for lunch for everybody. Yuck!
If you want, you can return the favor by inviting the guy to a movie several weeks from now and paying for the tickets.

A lot of guys insist on paying for girls when they take them out, that is how it usually went down ... but things have changed now a days.... but the guy invited you to go to the movies so yes, he should pay.... i'm 20 and my boyfriend is 23, when we go out i think, that if i invite him somewhere i should pay because i invited him, visa versa, and he agrees... if we go to the movies, one of us will buy the tickets, and the other buys the popcorn and sodas.... if we go to dinner, one of us picks up the check, and the other leaves the tip, we share the cost, it may not be even, but we each chip in, sometimes i insist on paying for everything and sometimes he insists on paying for everything, there are times where we jokingly fight over the check if we both decide we want to go to dinner, but we have a system, so how about he pays for the movie tickets, and you pay for the popcorn and drinks, i am sure he will like that, my guy isnt cheap, but when i offered to pick up the tab he acctually said no, but i insisted and snatched the check from him one night, and he really respected that... if the guy insists on paying for everything playfully argue about it but dont get grouchy if he wont budge, let it go.. save your money...
anyways at the movies, if you like the guy go!! have fun, dont be worried, just be yourself, if you want to flirt with him you can always throw popcorn at him or something playful like that.... during the movie you can put your hand on the armrest and maybe he will grab it, or if he puts his arm on there he could possibly want you to hold his hand he is just shy to grab it, so if you guys have your hand on the arm rest and he is being shy, ( you will be able to tell if he is into you ) then just go for it and grab his hand... later on in the movie you can always lean your head on his shoulder, you dont have to do anything during the movie, just watch the movie enjoy the time you are spending with your crush, just be yourself, dont be nervous, hold his hand if you want to... you'll be fine!!! have fun and good luck!!

study it from genuine to backside, and are not you in a large number? you're 22. it's time to go on. i be responsive to. You envisioned that answer, probable. yet I propose, basically study what you published right here! This guy is appearing like a complete ***. in case you have been courting for 5 and a million/2 years, then he particularly should not be treating you like this. he's using you and you're letting him do it. no count if this is given which you're subconsciously attracted to chaos by using a pair annoying journey (believe me, issues that would in no way look annoying would properly be annoying), or if its basically undesirable success, you ought to leave this guy. and that i understand which you fairly prefer to assist him out yet you're 22 years previous. you have too plenty existence previous to you and this guy isn't your accountability. you're your accountability. leave him on my own and bypass discover somebody who actual LOVES you. somebody who won't bypass around telling you that there is not any destiny and carry the previous against you after almost 6 years. you probable won't pay attention to this besides. basically remember which you probably did positioned up this right here, and in case you come back to a call to justify his strikes then there is particularly no ingredient in coming right here for suggestion.

Don't expect or assume anything. Just go to the movies and have fun and let nature take its course. I've expected things to happen before and got dissapointed. Don't do the same.

he is being a gentlemen by mentioning he will pay, you are not obligated to re-pay him , however, if you would like to buy the pop-corn that might impress him...I'd say this can be considered a date, if its just the two of you...if others its just friends going to the movies...act normal , thats what he is attracted to is you...so be u.

Sounds like he is asking you for a date. If you don't like him, don't go with him. If you do, just enjoy the movie and his company. don't feel obligated to have sex or go too far just because he paid for the movie. It is just a date!

He may plan to ask you to be his gf. Play it by ear & see what happens. Maybe he just got a big paycheck this month & feels rich, for a change.
