how do you balance who pays for the dates?

[HappyHarryHardon]

im talking like after a few dates with a girl. like when you go to see a movie, i sometimes actually cant afford to pay for us both. ive done it once or twice and paid for food sometimes. but tomorrow im thinking pay movie seperate and i get the coffee/food (lunch). or should i just start letting her pay for her own things now that its past a few dates?

I normally tell the girl that shes paying (with a straight face)... a$$hole move, but it works like a charm

This is the 21st century. Women want to be equal to men, so let them pay their share!

You make the interaction equally beneficial to both of you. She has to know you appreciate the time you spent making money, as much as you value how you spend it.

"I got the tickets, you get the drinks and popcorn."

You don't tell her, more as you're advising her that she's accountable for her portion of your together time. If the chick balks, makes a stupid face, or a half-assed comment; buy one ticket for yourself and tell her to go play hide and go fvck herself.

Enjoy the movie on your own.

I'd never pay for a date unless we were exclusive. I think its stupid to waste your money on a girl your not going exclusive with. So I take them on the date without saying anything. If she asks me to pay I'm nexting her on the spot.
