Do you secretly test your date? Ex. You want to see if she'll offer to pay for dinner or leave the tip, although, you're going to pay regardless.

PRDreaming I am from the era when a gentleman always pays for the Dinner and you come along having paid for perhaps a lovely new Dress and bag to look great for him... old fashioned ? perhaps, the Bill and tipping would be totally up to the man. Later on down the line, I would pay for Cinema or buy him a nice Shirt, maybe watch, not mean !! but I think the man should pick up the tab for Dinner [evening ] Lunch is a different thing... just old fashioned manners. lips

Because a man dates a woman expecting that she won't change, and she does. Whereas, a woman dates a man expecting he will change, but she instinctively knows he won't, so she constantly tests him, sometimes creating conflict to make things interesting for her; amusing for him. roll eyes
