To my mind it is whoever does the asking.

Always been the norm for the guy to pay on the first date But times have on and I guess it would be whoever asked confused

As long as he wined and dined you with the finest of foods and drink. The bill must not be less than $1000, for the food alone. Now the drinks bill will be higher as you shall be sipping on pink vintage champagne out of 19c waterford crystal glasses, that could potentially cost $10,000 a bottle.rolling on the floor laughing

In response to: crazy_surfer101: wat do u mean by go dutch


scousedon: Share the expense


rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing laugh laugh laugh

In all close countries, Dutch people are known to be miser. They for sure won't pay even half the bill.
It is known that a Dutch family of 4 will order only 1 menu: one plate for each.
On holidays abroad, they bring their own food and eat it in the car on a parking lot. In a hotel, I've seen people bringing their own eggs to be prepared for the next breakfast!

I think English should find another name for sharing the expense!

it would b nice if d guy offer 2 pay on d 1st date, as in my opinion it just shows he's a gentleman, hence this wouldnt b a question in my vietnamese culture as it is expected that guys r to pay not only for the 1st date but pretty much on all occasions...

RedLyonyss: So okay, I was just curious.
I always assume on a first date that it will be dutch and reach for my wallet, but I have to admit I respect a guy more if he offers to pay. I guess I am a little old fashioned even though I do not mind paying at all. Later as dates progress I asume it will either be dutch or we will take turns grabbing the check.

What do you think?

PS: No I do not run out on a check but I have had a date suggest it, so I added that option in. I never found out what he did for a second date...


If he insist on paying..then I pay for the tip leaving it on the table.handshake

I always offer to pay my half of the bill on a first date. Sometimes the guys will divide up the bills other times they insist on paying. Mind you the first day is always just coffee so not a big bill to cover anyways.
