First date meal...paying half/going dutch with a woman

I have discussed...this subject before...but it was a while agowow

As some women have stated...it's not the 1950s anymore...women have their own income and property...so why do so many women...still want the man to pay for the mealconfused

a novel idea...would be a woman offering to foot the whole bill for the meal..like so many men have done...throughout history..never complaining...just opening their wallets up...paying the bill and leaving a tip toowow

What i did with my exe...she paid and the nxt time i paid...fair is fairgrin

Feel free to share your views...on this most interesting of subjects...that effects so many of uswow

i think if woman really likes a man...she would offer to split the bill...if the first date is going well..you can always say...i get this time...you get nxt time my deargrin
Glad we're on the same page on that. wine cool
".you can always say...i get this time...you get nxt time my dear"


This part I agree with...
Naw, it's not in my genes. laugh
We differ on that. handshake
Mr. Charming. I think it would have been a very pleasant experience
if she would hold the door open for me as well.

We have plenty of them here, but I will not invite you to such a place S, I don't eat burger. My favorite would be a salad bar. We have several places in the Northbay. Or Chinese restaurants.
That's exactly how it should be. Having said that, it doesn't mean that a woman can't invite a man for a date. Pure innocent getting to know each other.
I like salad and Chinese, I could eat seafood all you eat and would travel into another state for fest. Its hard to believe that there is a place in a state were I've ate high on the hog and was rated. Good eatings all treats and buffet at a lodge and camping resort. dancing
Absolutely Didi. I will not ever fail to feel happy when I am invited and they take the responsibility as a gentleman in paying the bill. As I would expect anyone I invite (if it ever happens) to be pleased if I foot the bill. I decide where to go if I invite as I let him choose unless he solicits for my idea where to go.

Well Merlot, if you feel the need to pay every time you take a woman out, then go right ahead. grin But don't deny her the fun if she wants to treat you to a meal/ event/etc sometimes wink wine
"I think it would have been a very pleasant experience if she would hold the door open for me as well."


Sure...if you didn't have hands or maybe they were fulllaugh wine
Well if it isn't already, I'm hoping to set the trend grin cool

Drop swami off at In-N-Out and WE can do Chinese.beer

@Didi.
have you seen the video to this Britneys most beautiful song?
I'm gonna (not) be like that guy in the video. Promise.

Britney Spears - Everytime (Official HD Video)

Coming up. heart wings
Some promises are hard to keep... but noblehandshake


Btw, the guy in the video is "buff" and "svelte"; are you promising NOT to be that way too? HeHe grin
Never ate at a red lobster here but have one. The line is long and not worth my time I like a endless table. When eating seafood.
Red lobster is all over the nation.
I worked in a high Seafood shacked as a child and no a good meal when I see it. Over 40 types endless servings and went back in 2002 at $47 per person unlimited wine breads and good service.
I would have if I understood it... what was it?
Buff, is that bodylicious? I can try to work on it... and Svelte I have no idea what is... dunno
Nice,,, when you're done, give me a call.grin

Btw, "svelte" means, slim, trim, toned, etc... helps with the 'bodylicious' look.laugh
Ok, I'll take your advice.
Now do me a favour and do a blog on why women try to change their partner and does it even work, is it worth the effort etc etc.
Can you not just accept him as he is. grin
Do you have Sizzler there? My favorite. Anyways it's salad as the primary menu so it's healthy.
First meet should be dutch. I wouldn't make a meal a first meet. Who ever invites the other to dinner or whatever should pay unless other agreements are made. I could never find myself asking someone out and expect them to pay for whatever we did.
Exactly Chris. If I were to meet someone for the first time, and of course naturally a restaurant, coffee shop, etc is the venue, and mutually agreed to meet up, then a proposal would truly make each one feel comfortable by expressing Dutch treat.
Under any circumstance I'd expect whom I invite to foot the bill, woman or man for dinner, lunch or whatever.
For those who don't have a partner to benefit from the "nurture" nature, they can still be influenced by others - close friends, relatives, work colleagues - who care for them.
I know that "where ignorance is bliss, t'is folly to be wise", so perhaps that's the reason for their being happy/not seeing any need to change. I can respect that, but getting into a relationship with another person may call for some 'adjustments' in order to cater for the other person (if you're kind and respectful of his/her needs).
Maybe a handbook for men could be written. Remember this?
