Who Should Pay on a Restaurant Date?

I'm not sure if this has been discussed before but..

A man asks a woman out and she accepts. He ends up taking her on a date. They go to a fancy restaurant.They have fun eating and generally enjoying eachother's company. Then the bill comes. He turns to her and says
"So how are we going to settle this?"
The woman is surprised and gives him her credit card, she tells him to do what he feels is right. She excuses herself and goes to the bathroom. Her date ends up using her credit card to pay for everything and she never goes out with him again......................😃😉

My question is:
1) On a date who pays? Does this only apply to a first date?
2) Do you believe in going "dutch"
3) What happened to the line "I'm Miss Independent"?

😃

Aww I love this topic 😛

One of my very good friends firmly belives that a date is not a date if the guy does not pay. 😃 And that's how the dating system is usuallly set up. The man in the picture gets broke if you keep having "dates" for couple years and then get married. There are a few besharam girls who just don't mind as long as they are getting sumptuous meals . And then, they take out rallies saying "We are independent."

Personally, I feel that since the date involves two individuals, only one person should not be held responsible for the expenses. Since the norm of dating is that the guy pays, the first time should be that way. But after that, it should be equally divided or they can take turns to pay for the food/whatever.

But Vinuji, the guy in your example is just rude. The girl gives the credit card and he pays the whole bill with it? I would rather not say anything.

My friend was dating this one guy a couple months back. She was a very feminist girl and very strong-headed. The guy was extrememly chivalric and thought it was just wrong that the girl should pay and he just would not let her ever pay for anything. There was little that she could do about it. Then, one fine day, he says that he no longer has money and she needs to pay for all the meals now. 😆 The girl was just 😲 when the first place he asked her to take him to was Olive Garden 😆. These people are 19 by the way!

But anyway, in summation, this should be worked out prior to going anywhere and girls should always stand up for themselves and not let the man always dominate the financial area!

are you kidding it is forever, till the man goes broke or gets married(then he is broken😆) that theory of money is nothing in front of Luv is a theory😆

2) Do you believe in going "dutch" "beleive bhai, beleive karna aur implement karne me bahut phark hai".

We had a rule, if someone goes out for a date, he gets no interest loans from roomates for the month but does the dishes at home😆

3) What happened to the line "I'm Miss Independent"? The logic "When it helps use it in your favor, when not fold it in put in the box to reuse it" takes precedence over "I'm Miss Independant"😆
