When Should She Pay For Dinner?


This is a bit of a trivial question but some men in todays world believe that dinner should be a shared expense. Back in the day men believed in properly courting a woman. Which means that the man asks a woman out and he pays for her meal and anything else they may have done for entertainment that evening.  In my opinion there's nothing wrong with tradition.

In all respects there's nothing wrong with a woman paying for dinner but I believe that the woman should be a girlfriend.  At no point during the courting stage should a man feel comfortable with the woman paying for her meal.  Otherwise what's the point of asking her out and trying to win her affections.  Surely she could go out with somebody else.  This is his opportunity to win her over with his charm and attention to her having the best evening yet!  Some men simply wont hear of having his girl pay for anything.  Any woman who was in a relationship with a man like this and is presently dating runs into challenges dating these new age men.  She got pretty to go out and spend time with you so pay for dinner.  

So in response to one of my viewers questions, in my opinion a woman you are courting should never pay for dinner.  Once that relationship has shifted into a monogamous one the couple can decide how they spend their dining out and entertainment dollars as a unit.

I hope that helps and I look forward to your inbox messages and questions.

Happy Dating!
