should women pay on a first date (124)

You sound like you in pain! My guess is that you are one of those realy realy nice guys .... the type that almost always choose the wrong women ... and the realy nice women who would love to get to know you, dont stand a chance - because you keep choosing the Those Others, who give you a difficult time?
... and you end up getting hurt.

When a person lumps a gender of people as "you lot" - and then proceeds go generalise to the effect that "every man knows that any woman can have any man she wants" and wishes the reverse was true ... means only that that person has been deeply wounded, and is hitting out.

I know there are females who take guys for what they can get, and the reverse is also true ... that`s life.... like scum on the ocean... but there is a lot of clean water, if you just learn to scoop the scum out of the way.

By the way, for a guy who is toasting hs woman free singledom, you doing okay huh, being on a Singles Site?...What you looking for here? Yes, I know, you have not given up ... Yet.... Just like the rest of us.

Me ..... I should have given up years ago.... But I have this mission that drives me to see if there is One Single Honest Decent Man in the Universe .... who will pay for the Dinner.

Hi Awesome! You like? You remember Wedy in his early days here? He was truly a pillar of CS society in those days. Wonder what`s happened to him these days ..... ? Been gobbled up by some lascivious woman, or what?

Hi Awesome, Yeah me too, so I just take it this is something rather new that we disussing here. Actually, the very first time in my entire life that this happened was here in CH! I got invited to go to a special place, and afterwards for dinner, nd when we got there, boyo holds his francs waving it about in the air and pointedly looking at the admission price list,making sure I see he is paying for only himself, so I pay for myself. (Actually this particular facility I was invited to is inferior to the one I frequent nearer my home, but I was invited, and accepted).

Then afterwards, "dinner" is at a roadside diner, but hey I`m easy going and don`t mind .....I`m asked what I would like .... and again his 6 bucks is waved in the air, I thought he was cooling himself with it, till he said "Hey, I got my 6 bucks for mine, hey" .... So I got the message, and paid for my own.

So then I paid to fill his car tank to take me home.

.. and you know the feeling I got? What a loser, what a dope... no charisma, no balls, I would rather sit at home and knit a 5m scarf than try and look interested in a scrunge like that.... or rake leaves.

So for 26 bucks the guy can`t pay for what he invites a person to .... I still trying to figure out what exactly that was? Was it supposed to be a date?

From then on I always tried to pay for my own, with other guys, and they absolutely refused....That first one must have been some sort of odd-ball?

Men I`ve gone out with here usually join in family things at my home, and they get well fed, the beer crates are always well stocked, we have a good wine cellar .... so maybe it`s just that some guys simply have no class, or something?... to nit pick over a few bucks.....?
