Women, if a man did not pay the tab on the first date, would you go on a second date?

I pay with the money I lifted from her purse while she was in the restroom.

I have a feeling that you agree with me...lol.

Here is one of the big things. If he asks me out on a date and then doesn't pick up the tab, I feel like he isn't trying very hard to be romantic or a gentleman. We could just go on a picnic if he doesn't have lots of money. It is more about the gesture of providing and treating me like I'm special.

Agreed... A man could plunk down A LOT of money and pay for a very expensive date, that still doesnt he would get a date #2. This has NOTHiNG to do with money and everything to do with how the man treats you before/during and after the date.

Let's say the man made a ton of bank but he was a dullard or didn't have proper manners (believe it or not I dated plenty of men that fit into these categories) or he wasn't especially attentive or he did behave in an agressive/possessive fashion.

Women who are too overbearing and insist on paying for stuff don't realize it but they are spiting their faces by cutting their noses off. Let the man be the man. Let him put forth the effort to win your attention and interest. A man does not want what is all laid out before him as he will NEVER appreciate that woman.

That ain't antiquated - that is just how it is. No man will EVER appreciate a woman that *threw herself at him* (and I am NOT talking about sex) or immasculated him by not allowing him to be the man.

Maybe you missed my last post, but exactly! If he has little money he can still have class, and be decent. If you're not gold digging then no biggie but he should have had the sense to get his idea of a date across.

You should have been able to tell something about him. He could have been a serial killer, or some kind of freak, would you have picked up on it? Wanna go out for dinner and drinks?

classy!

I always pay... now explain what a bcbg dress is somebody. I would have thought that George's new spell-it-out board would have surely had that, obviously everyone knows what the hell it is but me....

I am trying to understand where the issue of gold-digging came from. We were talking dating here, not marriage.

Goodness fellas, ya'll need to stop worrying about laying a bit of money out. Sheesh, it's only money. What about the position the women are in? When should she decide to open her heart and connect sexually risking losing a bit of her humanity if the guy ends up being a total ASSHAT... you know, the kind that will throw himself all into getting in her panties then leaving her before the freaking spot hits the sheets?

Men... you guys are so freaking funny clinging to your pennies as if that is some great measure of your manhood.
