I guess that would depend on the persons attitude and the way they carry themselves.
There are many reasons that I may be interested in someone, I don't expect to find a man who is loaded and will care for me the rest of my life...as appealing a thought as it might be I would lose my self respect. I would prefer to find someone that has the potetial to be an equal partner...
if there is a short time that we need to lean on one another...then so be it...circumstances play a HUGE part in it for me...
I won't give you any slack for this one Robbie...seems like a good question to me...but who am I???
If i like realllyyy like him.. i wouldnt let this bother too much.. Will talk and discuss ... but will do this someother time.
Right now when its the dinner issue ... i would call him over and we could cook together !!! After all its about meeting and dining. Wouldnt want to make him feel awkward .. if he would .. if i were to pay.
a lot of women will answer this, that it wouldn't matter.But in reality wouldn't date such a "loser" JMO Because my money is indeed tight, I was making sure I could afford a really nice date, to include a motel room(for me) in her city. But she left CS while I was making preparations for the date. I believe women, while not wanting a rich guy, don't want a poor one, either
I guess its too soon a conclusion drawn usually. When u like someone and want to go out .. its still like in the initial stages where there r better things to bother about than his finances.
I wouldnt go out with someone who is broke cos of vices or something. But definitely if someone's having a crunch he could have genuine concerns... so judging too soon wont be my idea.

I was wondering when someone would offer to cook him a meal.
Yesterday, in a freak accident his building collapsed, crushing some 230 million dollars worth of art, and deverstating his records and needless to say all of his credit cards and wallet were lost, and the local branch of his bank, guess what...it was underneath his apartment!!
I wonder if hes a loser after the insurance payout???
It should be not a problem to meet a poor guy. I have not many money too and love is more then money. You can do many things without money. It must not be dinner.
But I have also to say, that on a long sight, in a relationship, it can be a big problem, If you are the only person which makes money and has work and he´ll do nothing. And you are always the one who pays, then can this be a problem.
If i like this guy and i better be sure i want to see if i can make it long term with him ......as of now, i would stick up for him ... as this is the worst that could happen to anyone. I would be there for him and help him work things out.
If this was a friend i started liking , i would be there for him anyways.
This kind of reminds me of a story I saw on OPRAH once about a guy who was dating a girl and the guy worked at McDonald's.
He asked her to marry him and she said yes.
Two days before the wedding, he goes up to her and says,''Sweetie,I HAVE A CONFESSION to make.Not only do I WORK at McDonald's......I own five chains.''
OPRAH asked the bride to be,''Were you upset that he lied to you and that you thought he was just an employee of McDonald's?''

Then he says he's broke, skint, potless. no money whatsoever, not even enough to take you out for dinner!!
Now do you take him out because you like him, or dismiss him without a second thought to even find out why?
Or do you ask him out and pay for dinner???
God. i will get flack for this one
