She offers to pay?

[AriMamba]

What do you do in a situation where a woman offers to pay for your meal or drinks, when is not the first time you have been out with this person?

Say thank you and then offer to buy the next time out.

This is common and not much of an issue.

Some guys really need to let go of chivalry, women don't like it and those who do are probably just using men as free meals.

I let her pay. Most people like a sense of fairness and gets a bad conscience if they're given more than they give back.

Totally agree and even if it is a first date if she wants to let her pay. Generally it's a sign she doesn't want to be obligated to you and your not getting any so no profit in paying for a chick who isn't going to put out.

In my experience a woman who offers to pay initially on a first date isnt interested in you..its almost like its a way of her saying if "I pay for everything he wont think I 'owe him something'"

I'm talking specifically immediately upon meeting up on the date, not once you buy the first drink and she offers to buy the next round...that typically signifies interest...

Its always to your benefit to allow people to invest in you. People that are invested have deeper interest, feel they are desired, are more committed, and there will be a greater chance of the relationship succeeding. Its natural for people to want to be a part of something and this is one way she can. Works the same in business.
