Subject: So when you and your gf/bf goes on a date, who pays?

<3

I've been dating my girlfriend for 3 years now, and for about the first 2 and a half years I've always payed for dinner, but now since we consider our incomes are pretty much both our money we don't really care who pays. I let her pays when she wants and I'll pay if I feel like paying.

What do you think Flood?

We dine and dash of course.

Please do not send me group invites.

If I plan the date, I pay. If she plans, she pays.

Whoever made the invitation pays

We almost always split 50/50.

I have no choice but to pay because imaginary money won't cut the bill.

Assuming i will be with a wonderful girl, i will let her pay because thats the kind of person i would be with. One that pays for everything :)

Jk no im a gentleman.

  • 12.11.2012 11:31 AM PDT

I do because I am so rich and have women in binders.

As I'm married, I use joint checking accounts. My money is her money, her money is my money, etc. All my retirement/trading accounts are in my name only.

But back when we were dating, we split 50/50. When we first met in college, we both had similar amounts of spending money per quarter ($1,500 a semester or so - she worked as an RA and I made about that for trading).

Why not just both people pay? Who cares about who planned it?

You'd probably have to mention it beforehand, but still.

When you first date a girl, always pay for your date. However once you're together I really wouldn't mind if I or she payed.

Either split 50/50 or if one of us is treating the other, in which case we pay for the other person.

  • 12.11.2012 11:34 AM PDT

Personally I'd pay every time. Maybe if we were married we would go half.

Because it's easier to just give the waiter/waitress one credit card.

A date is about taking someone out. If it's my idea to go out, it's only fair that I pay.

If I have money, I pay. If I do not, she pays.


Doesn't really matter. We're moving in together in a couple months. Been together for over three years.


In the first 1-2 years, I payed for everything. But my money is pretty much hers and hers is pretty much mine at this point.

  • 12.11.2012 11:36 AM PDT

I usually pay since my girlfriend doesn't have a job right now.

  • 12.11.2012 11:37 AM PDT

I pay, but when we go to see the Cirque de Soleil movie, she's paying.

I guess it's okay for the first date, but I think after that it should be shared.

"hey want to go to dinner with me?"
"aw that's sweet, i would love to."
"ok you're paying for your share."

I often end up paying, but it's from our joint bank account soooo...

  • 12.11.2012 11:41 AM PDT

I think all of the above is reasonable. Minus Dine n' Dash of course. As long as it's communicated it's fine.

Same, we just each pay for our own food, or we're doing something afterwards; one of us will grab dinner and the other pay for what ever else we do.

Makes it fair that way, especially if both people are working.
