I'm registered with around ten dating agencies. That's how 55yr old guys like me get dates with all the women in their 30s we want so I meet quite a few. Thing is there are two things that mean the date is over:

1) She mentions feminism. If she does this I explain to her that we won't be getting along if she talks about that with me. Usually they comply. But once my date asked me why I had a problem with it because it was about equality so I left.

2) She mentions marriage or children. I already have a German Shepherd who doesn't try to sleep with my neighbor and take my house, so the companion position is filled by a better candidate.

If they say these things I make my apologies and leave the restaurant. Which means they pay the bill. I see no problem with this because women are not paying 50% of the whole bills and I'm a feminist who supports equality.

Sometimes they later ring me on my cellphone saying they don't have the money. How can we raise awareness that they might need it?

Lol man... your German Shepherd must be really "special"

But yea I know what you mean... they want equality and youre just giving it to them with a bit of honesty. Lol maybe TOO honest. Lol

Tell them to give up the Prada sunnies for colateral. Then after that... you BETTER run.

I always did.... but now I wonder.........................I just read the rest of your question, I must say that you sound like a pompous idiot. What makes you so special that you are quiding the date to go only as you had planned? You need more spontaneity... you need to let the date flow not adhere to your rules. I hope that you mention these things on the telephone before the date begins, I'll bet you half the women you meet would not bother to show up if they knew how many rules come along and baggage with you as you enter the room. Play fair mate. And a 55+ man should be dating women closeer to his own age, ahhhh... but you cannot as who in their right mind as an adult would have anything to do with you.

It's reasonable to assume that you've had some bad experiences with women, made worse by the validation feminism gets from conventional wisdom, but not all women are like that. There are even some feminists who are decent and actually care other people. So don't be so hard on the ones you don't know yet.
___A more moderate response to a mention of marriage would be to say that you're not likely to be ready for that for any foreseeable future. If she stays, then she's flexible on the issue, and has no grounds to consider you obligated.
___And if you have a moderately dicey coversation on feminism during an early date, and she still shows some interest, it's a sign that she isn't totally under its spell.
___It's rude to walk out like that. It's better to let her know where you stand, and see if she wants to call a mutual halt to the dating. But at least finish the meal, unless she's really impossible to endure.
___At least throw down enough money to cover your own meal. Think of the ***** standard. Would a ***** do this? If yes, then don't do it.
___A bad divorce can mess you up for a long time, and society has little sympathy for embittered men, But you can use your bitterness to fend off emotionally dangerous women. Just let it rise to the surface enough so that they can see that there's a burden of proof on them, and most will leave. Dealing with nasty women is no reason to surrender your honor. It's feminism that incorporates vindictiveness as an ideology. Don't stoop to that level. When you behave decently at all times, it helps in times of inner turmoil to have that to hold onto, and it becomes easier to deal with the shafting you took in your divorce. And the only way for a man to retain his honor is to behave honorably. Real men don't have the entitlement of moral self-delusion that feminism grants women, and if you try to circumvent this, you'll be all messed up internally.
___Waiting for a feminist to see the error of her ways or to snap out of it only subjects you to one of those mythic eternal punishments like Sisyphus and his rock or Prometheus and the eagle eating his liver. Take your shafting like a man, learn to avoid it, but also break the cycle of abuse. You can be better than they are, if you don't deceive yourself like they do.

Boy, you are some prize, aren't you? Where do you get off ditching someone in the middle of a date just because you disagree with something she said? Guys like you give decent guys a bad name. You should come with a warning: "Toxic Belligerent Male."
Women should carry "mad money" for emergencies such as running into a total jerk like you.

Women should have been in the Boy Scouts - their motto "Be Prepared"!

Ditch them if you must, but you should still pay for whatever you ordered. Being ditched like that is bad enough.

Yes,a woman who hooks up with a creep like you should have enough money to pay the whole bill.
