Guys is it a turn off When a girl expects you to pay for dates and things like that?

Girls is it a turn off when a guy doesn't offer to pay for a date and why?


Personally if I were to date I'd want to pay just because I like buying things if I like someone. If she -expected- it though, I'd kind of lose interest right there.

no i think a guy needs to pay!


-- Posted by Leannbby at 10:37 am on July 6, 2009

yeah its rude to expect someone to buy it because its almost as if they dont appreciate it as much

i dont like things being bought for me =(
makes me feel bad..


-- Posted by Cunning Stunt at 10:39 am on July 6, 2009

I pay if I have the money. It's kinda lame when she expects me to pay her way when I both a) seriously don't have the money and b) she has the money, but doesn't want to spend it because it's *my* responsibility.

showing off is a turn off


-- Posted by xquackxattackx at 10:39 am on July 6, 2009

i like to pay for my own things, but if a guy really insists i'd let him pay


-- Posted by CrazyGrrl4U at 10:39 am on July 6, 2009

i think the person who asked for the date should pay.


-- Posted by IloveKD at 10:39 am on July 6, 2009

i always pay for me and my gf.. regardless even when she wants to pay and begs me 2 pay lol


-- Posted by 0h h3ll n0 at 10:39 am on July 6, 2009

I'd rather someone paid. Who wouldn't want a free dinner? Lol.

But no, it wouldn't be a turn off if we paid half. I'd expect that.

It would only be a turn off if he expected me to pay for everything.


-- Posted by ifyoulikepinacoladas at 10:39 am on July 6, 2009

I'm a girl. If I have money, I'm more than happy to pay for the both of us.

Same for me too


-- Posted by Pillowpants at 10:40 am on July 6, 2009

its socially acceptable for the guy to. so if he demands not to, its him being thick skulled and an asshole. or at least revealing future problems of this.


-- Posted by RahRahReplica at 10:40 am on July 6, 2009

I'd like him to pay but I don't expect. If he asks me to split it then I wouldn't mind.


-- Posted by theycallherlove at 10:41 am on July 6, 2009

it doesn't really matter to me : )
i'm cool with splitting the check, but it is nice for the guy to offer to pay from time to time.
i wouldn't expect him to get the check everytime though

I think it should be this way!
If both people are arguing to pay for it all, you know you have a good relationship.


-- Posted by Lightning Strikes at 10:43 am on July 6, 2009

I wouldn't expect him to pay. I don't like people buying things for me, it makes me feel guilty because it's their money and should be used on themselves.
If i had the money, I would pay for both, because even though I hate being bought things, I don't mind paying for stuff for other people.


-- Posted by Aimforthehead at 10:45 am on July 6, 2009

And to be honest, I'm kind of annoyed by the girls who just say "Well it's really nice if the guy pays for it all"...

=/ Well of course it's nice, you get to sit back do nothing and use people to get free things, how noble of you.


-- Posted by GlassHearts at 10:45 am on July 6, 2009

I feel bad when people pay for me when i go somewhere, so if they try it, i always end up sneaking money into their pocket or something when i hug them. thats if they dont just take the money ofc xD

I dont think a guy should pay, i think it should be equal.I like to treat guys, i think it's only fair.     x


-- Posted by RIMHfire at 10:48 am on July 6, 2009

Unless the guy really insists, then I usually like to pay. But I think it's cute if a guy pays for me.


-- Posted by Joep0113 at 10:50 am on July 6, 2009

No, it'd feel weird not paying for the dates actually..


-- Posted by Lucid Nightmare at 10:51 am on July 6, 2009

I think the person who asks should pay. If the guy asks, he pays. If the girl asks, she pays. Then you could just take turns after that or something.

lol i don't cvare either way i to do free things anyhow

and how do you not have a gf? you're pretty sexy


-- Posted by kaylar28 at 9:55 pm on July 6, 2009

I dont expect a guy to pay for everything all the time. It makes me feel dependant on them and i hate that. My boyfriend and I usually pay half and half, or switch up who pays. Although i agree with what Lucid nightmare said, if a guy asks a girl on a date they should pay and vice versa.
