I hate having guys pay for everything, I feel like I owe them something, like they're paying for me in a hookerish way. I'd rather just take turns paying or split the bill.

[–]xyzz 111 points112 points ago

most worthwhile girls insist on splitting the bill or taking turns paying.. or maybe i just got lucky

[–]robo23 59 points60 points ago

I agree with you. When you go out with someone willing to split the bill it is obvious that they are interested in being in your company, not for the free meal. Of course it feels good to take the whole check here and there, but to date someone for an extended period of time and pay for every single thing you fucking do together is ridiculous and doesn't do any favors to build a good team mentality to have a really good relationship.

[–]ArtistCeleste 20 points21 points ago

Yes. Even now that we are married my husband and I split everything. The guy paying is ridiculously old fashioned. Some couples still do it, but I'm glad things are changing.

[–]SEE_I_ATE_LUNCH 20 points21 points ago

But... if you're married, your money is his money and his is yours...

[–]violetjoker 20 points21 points ago

You can have a separate bank accounts .

[–]SEE_I_ATE_LUNCH 6 points7 points ago

Separate bank accounts doesn't change the fact that all your worldly possessions are shared. Just because one doesn't have access to the money doesn't mean that money isn't partially theirs if they were to split up.

[–]Carbon_Dirt 3 points4 points ago

It's not uncommon for couples to still do this, especially if both people work. If they just come to an agreement of "You pay the mortgage, I'll pay the car and utility bills" or something similar, it can usually end up being about the same. That's what my fiancee and I do usually, she pays the car and insurance bills, I pay utilities and do the grocery shopping, and we split rent.

I think if we put all our money into one account, sure it'd be more convenient in some ways, but I'd second-guess myself all the time. When I'm out, I'd think "Well she'll see this charge, should I really go to the expensive restaurant? Do I really need this game? Should I not get this? Will she react weird?"

As long as we have enough to pay the bills and put our chunk towards savings, I feel a little less stress over my purchases. Plus, when it's birthday/Christmas time, it's a lot easier to hide presents when they don't see the charge from whatever store you got it at. A charge from a florist kind of defeats the surprise in sending her flowers.

[–]Vataro 1 point2 points ago

My Wife and I have a system where we put all our money into a joint account, then from that take an allowance each month to put into personal accounts. We use the joint account for all bills and joint expenses (groceries, gas, eating out together, etc.), and personal accounts as we individually see fit (most of mine goes to lunches when I don't bring lunch to work and video games, hers goes to random things and yarn since she knits / crochets).

    Just because you are legally entitled to something doesn't mean that you have to take it.

    [–]Tehkaiser 3 points4 points ago

    In this day and age where marriage doesn't really mean anything, with divorces so common... I'll keep my fucking money, thanks.

    [–]scrabbledude 4 points5 points ago

    This type of attitude doesn't help. A good marriage is a partnership and instead making it "me vs you" just creates negative vibes.

    [–]idobutidont 1 point2 points ago

    Wanted to say this. Although I understand the sentiment, it would seriously undermine the purpose of getting married. If you're marrying the kind of person who would take all your money in a divorce then you shouldn't marry that person. I've heard someone say you should marry the kind of person you'd want to divorce. Not that it will happen, hopefully, but it just means that if it does you know they wouldn't be a vindictive jerk. My husband and I have talked about that a lot since both of our parents divorced. His was messy and ugly. My parents did their best to keep it civil.

            I mean it doesn't have to be perfectly equal, but yeah the gesture is nice. Most of the time I'm picking up the $100 steaks and wine and she might pay the club cover later, but if I was dating a doctor it might be reverse.

              My girlfriend has no problem paying her own way, but I still am down a lot of cash. It's because I'm so willing to go out and do things with her that cost money, when I'd usually be much more conservative.

              [–]Australia__borealis 3 points4 points ago

              I know the feeling. My girlfriend and I moved in together a few months ago, and... well, my wallet's suffering.

              Not so much that we go out frequently, but where I'd be fine hanging a couple movie posters on the wall, she wants shelves, and picture frames, and candles. She wants to get Ikea furniture, I'd have been fine with Walmart or even DIY stuff; she wants a decent couch set, I think our futon would've been fine for a while longer.

              And then there's the sudden increase in the wine and girly drinks budget...

              [–]BluthBananaStand 0 points1 point ago

              Absolutely correct.

              If you are dating somebody that demands you pay at all times then you need to get out of the relationship, but more often than not it's simply the fact that you go out more often and to nicer places than you normally would. It's natural that you would want to do new and fun things with somebody you care about, unfortunately that still means you are out some money.

              [–]Aksen 1 point2 points ago

              unfortunately out of money, but fortunately i'm having an awesome time, and getting great memories!

              [–]twokidsinamansuit 6 points7 points ago

              Yeah, I guess I've been lucky to date mostly stronger type women who don't want to be any guy's 'baby girl' or to have a 'sugar daddy'. I would actually tease one of my exes by acting chivalrous to her, she hated feeling patronized. Something about that made me extremely attracted to her personality. Another ex of mine is the only person who I will still regularly loan/borrow money from. In the 6 years we were together we split everything down the middle and never argued over money once. She's always pays me back as soon as she can, and I do as well. Showing yourself to be strong and willing to be financially independent shows character in a woman that really gains my respect. I think it's because if I ever started a family with someone, I'd want them to be a partner in our success and not just another mouth to feed.

              [–]allowableearth 16 points17 points ago

              They don't want you to owe them something, they want you to owe them one thing.

                As a guy, I'm a big fan of paying for dinner but then letting her paying for drinks afterwards.

                [–]dschneider 3 points4 points ago

                When I go on a date, I start the date assuming I'm paying for everything, and will usually just go for my wallet when it comes time for money to be spent. If my date beats me to it, or states that she'd like to pay, I thank her and we move on. What bothers me are the guys who insist on paying to the point of starting an argument.

                Honestly, I try to treat early in the relationship, but overtime let it even out. Granted, I don't have a whole lot of experience with this (3rd girlfriend and 21 years old).

                  I'd agree with you, but at the same time, I think I'd maybe be a bit taken aback if the guy asked me to help pay on the first date.

                  Not that I wouldn't pay anyways, it's just I don't want to be asked.

                  [–]ChippedPaint 0 points1 point ago

                  I feel exactly the same way; I hate the feeling that I owe someone else something, or that someone spent their money on me, especially when it's only due to societal norms, and nothing that I asked for. Of course I am grateful at those times, but I just feel awkward and wish it hadn't happened to begin with.

                  [–]Surfacetovolume 0 points1 point ago

                  I think it makes sense for it to be proportional. That is, if one person is making a lot more money than the other, 50-50 split isn't really fair.

                  I think the first date should be paid for by whomever did the inviting.

                            When I was single 4 months ago, I had a twenty dollar bill gathering dust in my wallet. I just didn't need it. Now, I'm taking $100 out of the bank every weekend for THE GIRL.

                                            It's an unattractive wallet. It has the weirdest coloration. Like a peach/light brown thing. It's weird. I too would destroy it and put all of my cash in another wallet.

                                              Well, you say that, but it's socially expected in many circumstances that a man should pay for a woman.

                                              Nearly everything wrong with humanity is "socially expected". To do what everyone says all the time and have absolutely no self direction is only natural. To have some sense of self worth and individual intent is better.

                                              That seems extremely rude. Like, she is going to see that, and probably feel really hurt by it. Your "other friend" strikes me as a tool.

                                              Depends on the girl. Personally, I'd laugh my ass off, as it's simply stereotype for females to drain men of their wallets. However, I do understand that everyone's different.

                                              [–]coolcreep 7 points8 points ago

                                              If something is either going to make someone laugh or hurt their feelings, and you aren't sure which, then you probably shouldn't say it.

                                              [–]ilikeoctopussy 2 points3 points ago

                                              True. But OP's friend may be friends with the girl, and thus know whether or not she'd be hurt by it. Damn.. Now I'm just over thinking it.

                                                I changed it for my last 2 relationships over the years but prefer the privacy now.

                                                When I first started dating my SO, I let her know that I would not change by Facebook status... ever. Just yesterday she changed her status, and was upset that I kept mine hidden. I absolutely love her, and don't mind people knowing my relationship status, but I don't want everyone and their mother to know just by looking at my facebook. Luckily, my girlfriend is awesome, and was ok with it in the end.

                                                  I'm guessing your friend has never had a girlfriend, because then he'd know they don't cost money.

                                                  They do take up a lot of time, though.

                                                  There are cheap things to do on a date. This time of year, with good weather, the possibilities are unlimited. Hiking, picnic, beach, you name it. Pick some strawberries or blueberries, apples in the fall, and it's cheaper than getting them at the grocery store. Make a pie with them. Watch TV together, go on a country drive, look at Christmas lights in the winter, build a snow fort, shovel the snow from the walkways of your elderly neighbors. Be creative.

                                                  If you're blowing all your money on dates to impress a girlfriend, that's your call, and maybe that's cool in the short term, but find a lower-maintenance woman at some point. Trust me.

                                                  I personally think those things are the most enjoyable! My boyfriend and I make a point to go out and do all the simple little things life offers. Walks on nice nights, go exploring nature trails or even the city with cameras and try to get some good pics, and basically almost everything FoofIsProblematic said. I always have a great time.

                                                  I know not all girls think this way, but there are definitely a lot of us who don't see these dates as "cheap," rather they are thoughtful and intimate.

                                                    I live in the country and my boyfriend lives in the city. Whenever he comes to my place there's not much to do so we cook together and wander along the beach. Whenever I go to his place we go to the museum or the zoo or that kind of place, which tends to be free for concessions (which we are). Museum is the best, it's fun, and you learn :) plus, dinosaurs.

                                                        People shouldn't make their relationships Facebook Official until after the first pregnancy scare.

                                                        Because masculinity is still an image that a lot of man and women hang on to and deem favorable.

                                                        most people are just looking for someone to love them or pay attention to them if that answers your question, and there is girls and even guys that take advantage of that, we are supposed to be living in a world where men and women are equal but buying things for women and them never paying a dime for anything just seems unfair to both sexes. that is how i see it at least.

                                                        Theres a lot of girls with that common sense, but I think theres a lot more that would consider it cheap if the guy didn't pay. On reddit the perception is obviously skewed. But looking around all the girls in my college, I think the latter is more prevalent. Thoughts?

                                                        well i guess it kinda goes by social circles, some its normal for guys to pay and some its not, its the first for mine and i'm the minority, as for being cheap, money should not be a determining factor, you should be financially responsible for yourself because no one can tell what the future holds.

                                                          On the other it's based on age-old sexist stereotypes.

                                                          Dating is more expensive than being in a relationship. Once you are in a relationship girls are typically happy with staying in more often.

                                                          What should be shown blowing up is your free time.

                                                            I was thinking the tractor beam would equally apply there

                                                            Implying relationships should cost heinous amounts of money.

                                                            How about the ole switcheroo

                                                            ... go out and have her pay for everything. Say you're a male feminist, and you insist that she empower herself by using her hard-earned money.

                                                            See how long that lasts.

                                                            The only thing I inferred from this post was that OP has a sum total of 2 friends.

                                                            I had a friend (note the "had") who met a girl online, I remember him talking with her on the phone and saying "don't worry babe, I will wire you 3000 €". All my fucking alarms went on.

                                                            Imgur wouldn't display this for me, and I'm actually glad, because I'm sure it's retarded as fuck.

                                                            I felt a great disturbance in the force, as if thousands of dollars suddenly cried out in terror, and were suddenly silenced.

                                                            Maybe stop dating free loaders?

                                                            You have two friends? The fuck is that?

                                                            Could someone put the Steam logo on the side of the Death Star to make this gif perfect?

                                                            holy shit, that's brilliant

                                                            Somebody make the death star Gabe Newell.

                                                            So your friend still believes in social conventions from the 50's? How quaint.

                                                            [–]apple0705 0 points1 point ago

                                                            Obviously this GIF is just a joke. But to expand on the whole "hurr durr, girls are expensive and high maintenance!", it gets really old as a woman to be frequently labeled as such. I realize that there are plenty of girls that are. I'm not going to argue that. But what I do take issue with are the guys who try to make me feel guilty about them spending money on me, when THEY'RE the ones who insist upon doing so.

                                                            Even when I insist on paying for half or even more (I've paid 100% for LOTS of my dates), there comes a point where the high maintenance GF "jokes" start to get old. When I point out that I pay for whatever I can, when he "allows" me to, I'm always met with "it's just a joke". No, it was a joke the first 50 times I heard it. Now it's just obnoxious and makes me resentful.

                                                            Why is it, that when I try to explain that certain things just aren't funny to me, I'm treated like I'm the one with the problem? If someone politely asked me to not joke about a certain topic, I wouldn't. Since when is making some uncomfortable ON PURPOSE, an okay thing to do?

                                                            I recently told a friend that I've been dating someone for the last year and he actually had the gaul to say 'but your facebook status says single?!?!' Status change = relationship kiss of death. I won't change mine until I get married.

                                                            I have no idea from what planet I am but I pay for everything and I'm a girl. And I like it. I think I'm starting to grow some balls.

                                                            Meh! This gif was better a couple of weeks ago when it was attached to the Steam Summer sale.
