One simple line to split the bill unawkwardly for the first date.

Before dinner text her this:

"Let's get dinner sometime, you got money, right?"

Or

"We should get drinks and split the bill"

If she isn't receptive to that then North Carolina

i usually offer to:
1) each pays for what each consumed
2) we split in half (i usually win a bit here but that's not the intention)

to me it sounds perfectly reasonable. if you feel awkward then you're just a *******

Man, what an awkward situation. That comes across completely schiesty. I was taught, if you are inviting, you are picking up the tab. That's goes for ANYONE you invite, not just some chick for a date.

I hear that I am a better human being choosing to date you, the guy crowd sourcing how to split the bill, over the guy who takes care of the bill. What are your thoughts?

It's simple really.

If potential diamond in the rough, wife material (intelligent, instagram isn't loaded with selfies, has a career, respects herself, isn't attention whore)
Then you definitely pay.

If you're simply just adding a chick to the roster
Then yeah, use whatever plebby coupon line you can to make it cheaper on yourself. Even I do this.

Sort of agree, except not so much if I'm hanging/doing something with a friend, though occasionally.


I honestly just hesitate a tad when the bill comes and see if she goes for her purse. If she does, great, I'll still get it, but it says a lot about character

If we are out drinking with friends, there is a round Robbin approach (unspoken) of picking up tabs. Nobody has a calculation on who consumed what etc. just throw down the card, open a tab, drink, close out and go to the next.

When I dated my now wife, I asked her out the first two times and paid. The third time, she asked me out and I was SUPER curious what she would do in terms of tab and she without hesitation picked it up. Guess we were taught the same.

we are talking about a FIRST DATE you nighers. nobody owes **** to the other. splitting in half is the only reasonable thing to do.

if she is expecting not to pay, then she doesnt care about going out with you. she is not willing to invest anything into you other than an hour of her life and then will go to all her friends about what a pussy you are and that the date sucked but at least she ate good.

splitting the bill is not something you ask for, it's implied. you ask to pay the bill if you want, but otherwise it's 50/50

I bet Jeremy pays the whole mcdonalds tab before taking your girl next door to the motel to smash the chit out of her.

Yup I understand. If it's a long time friend there are situations where you split and some where you don't. Example, let's say I invite some friend to the race track, I'm totally into cars and he's only slightly into it but he comes out and spends the day with me. I'll pick up the track fee and lunch. But let's say we go fishing, since we both love to do it I'll pick up the eighteen pack and snacks for the boat and he will grab lunch. You sort of split but without the awkward let's do a calculation I. Our head...oh you had two cokes and I just had water so you owe $12 while I just owe $8. I have no time for that schiesty behavior.

But I also keep my circle of friends tight. 5-6 that I call friends. A few dozen acquiantences.

Same. Honestly, I would feel extremely awkward discussing the bill in that situation

I'm sure you're the same but I find myself reaching for the bill in most situations regardless of the company

1. don't take her to any venue that requires paying
2. don't buy any chit on ur date, if she wants to buy something she'll automatically pay for it (if she asks u to pay u already won and have power...whatever u say or do doesn't matter...JUST DON'T PAY)
3. DON'T PAY

it's that simple

u lose some poosy here and there, who cares

not rocket science, the ones who will come thru and smash will and the ones who don't won't (and u save massive $ + time by them leaving in a hissy fit)

If you asked her out, then you obviously wanted to spend time with her more than she wanted to spend time with you no? If not, wouldn't she have asked you out?

And if you reply with "it's social norm for the guy to ask out" then you fall into the bucket that it's also social norm for the male to pay

If you drive, do you also calculate miles and bill her for her half of the gas?

Ahhh but I'm sure you meet her there.......

So what if you make more money than her, should you send an invoice in the hour wage difference you make x by the number of hours spent to ensure thats equal too?

Yup, it's a tell (poker term) for me. If it's a split situation with someone new I just met and they easily let me pick up the whole tab, I'll know a lot more about that person and make my decision how I spend time with them in the future accordingly. I'd rather spend a few bucks to learn about a person quickly then learn the hard way later on.

A very sensible way to deal with the issue and to get a lot of info frankly.
