yes and forever after........ I pay if I go out with friends but my OH pays if he is with me.

If a guy asked me out on a date then yes I'd expect him to pay for me and I'd expect him to open doors for me too.

After the first date .... I'd probably pay for myself.

Anyway it's a moot point. I don't want to date. A couple of guys have asked if I wanted to go for a 'drink' after work. I replied 'hell no'.

...let the guy pay for dinner or do you insist on paying your own?

 

This came up for discussion in yesterday's breakfast show.

 

Sami believes the guy should pay on the first date, its a chivalrous gesture.

 

Yumi says absolutely not, it's sexist, old-fashioned and old.

Whichever rule applies make sure you agree first. 

I think it's old fashioned to expect the man to pay, but each situation and event is different and I'd decide accordingly.

but if you pay half (when HE asked you out) and you don't see him again you are out of pocket, MMMMM much better the money in your wallet.
