Am i being tight ( gf related thread )?

As a bloke I wouldn't expect someone I was dating to pay any of it in the first few months. With the right girl it works out down the line anyhow.

I don't follow that.
Always 50/50 or depending on the situation, or whoever planned it, all me or all them. I don't need to prove anything, nor does she.

Grew out of social trends like that a long time ago.
 
You think thats a problem? Mine just text me saying she was now at the pub with her friends and that the taxi driver gave them all beer... Idiots...
 
I don' get you. You refused her offer, then complain on here that she isn't buying a round. :confused:

This pretty much. Just wait next time until she asks if she should get the next round and then say yes. If she hardly ever does it though you should probably say something.
 
Get her in bed asap. If she's a dirty minx, man up and pay. If she spreads and stares, demand some scratch from her next time you're out.

My first few dates with my current girlfriend we split everything. We never actually spoke about money, but mentally, we both kept score. 7 years down the line, I pay for everything :(

Just work it into the conversation. Ask her what her views on equal rights are, then work in the question in regards to "treating a lady", for instance like on a night out. Are men still expected to pay?

If she says 'yes', then pay, smash pasty, and don't call again.

As I understand, it's equal in the workplace and pretty much everywhere else, apart from the courting game (read, pay for s***). That's still sacred and holy turf where you cannot do enough for her. It's suppose to be all about her and what cute tricks you can perform (and pay!, don't forget paying!) to amuse and endear.

At least this is what I understand and read between the lines in years of dealing with this specie.
 
Not really equality is it...

Just say you're a new-age man, and believe in equality, tit for tat. My fiancée and I split everything 50/50. Even when we started dating.
 
So you've been out with her 3 times and one of those times she offered to pay, In reality you've been out twice where she hasn't offered to pay, she's hardly using you as a meal ticket. As men aren't we supposed to spoil them a bit and make an impression?


Whatever happened to romance!!!
 
Paid for roughly the first 8-10 dates with my other half. It was her first proper dates with anyone and she didn't know what else to do, apparently :p
