What is everyone's protocol on paying for dates?

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

I pay for the first time we go out always, from that moment on, we share or I pay for the 2nd, she pays for the 3rd and so on. If she expects me to pay all the time, no good.

However, when I really have a good time with a woman and see things progressing naturally to a good place, I take pleasure in paying a couple of dollars (Albanian Lek in my case LOL). I reward people with whom I have fun with.
