I am a girl and I think that's best and better. Sometimes I give some money for the bill, but only a part: 1/3 or 1/2, but not often. It bother you guys if the girl don't pay?

The guy always pays , to show he is a gentleman, but nowadays the girl wants to pay her share to  show she is independent.

I think you should enjoy it while it lasts. \n\nONce you get married, he will definitely want you to share the bill in everything.

I agree with you (but you shouldn't have to pay for a girl, unless you can't find one on your own but that's none of my business) - but everything else you said I totally agree with - I have no idea why they say that.  I think money can buy happiness.

sounds good to me - better if she chips in for gas and beer, too.  Hell, it's usually the guy paying for everything long before any commitment is made, why is it wrong for the girl to do so?

It seems to be a thing with guys lately.  My guy will buy some things, like when we go to the store - but only things that he will use exclusively for when he is here on the weekends.  (He lives on the other side of Atlanta) But when we go out for dinner or ice cream or something like that, he always pays.  I haven't figured it out yet, because when I cook a meal at home, it usually ends up costing more then if we went out somewhere, not to mention I usually start the meal on Friday (I like to be extravagant in our special meal).  Guess it all comes out in the wash... he does pay for both my mom and I when we go places.\n\nChihuahua has a good point.  \n\nOne time when we went out I ordered Australian Lobster (IT WAS REALLY GOOD BTW) and on the menu it said "Market Price."  Well, we were enjoying the meal and had desert and a brandy after wards.  Well the check came and I about passed out because my lobster alone was $75!  (IT WAS REALLY GOOD BTW - LOL)  I really felt bad, but he happily paid the bill.  I learned to always ask "What is market price tonight."  LOL

It really depends on how much you like the girl.  Going Dutch is a good idea because some girls might think that if you pay they can count on you to buy them things and that might influence their feelings about you.

If at the beginning of the relationship the guy starts asking for money.  I can barely support myself, I don't need someone else asking for money!!

No Spanky it's not that easy for us girls.  When a cop has to make his quarter, he gives not one penny how beautiful you are or how good you can give a bl*wjob.  Never had to do it because it's beneath me to even try.

Money is important in a relationship..just as important as sex..the Man doesn't have to be the sole provider but he should be there when his woman needs help or is a jam..not to be a sugar daddy though..to be there when it's important.

ok. there are 3 guys who go on a road trip. they go into the hotel and its $30.00 even for the room. so each guy pays 10.00. (10 x 3 =30)\nwhile they are in the room the checkin girl realizes its only $25.00 for the room. so she grabs 5 one dollar bills and goes up to the room. she realizes that 5 does not divide by 3 evenly. so she taked $2.00 and puts them in her pocket. as she knocks at the door she feels guilty and pulls the $2.00 out of her pocket. they ended up giving her 2 dollars and kept 3. if each guy gets 1 dollar back then instead of 10 they paid 9 each for the room. ( $9 x 3 = 27)\n27 + 2 (tip they gave lady) = $29.00\n\nWHERES THE LAST DOLLAR??????????????

Why not?  I am.  As long you both can pay your bills and like what you do, what's the big deal?  It's just money!

I dont. I think when women make that statement, they need to really think about it first.\nWhen I think about equality, its more about fairness. If Im doing a mans job, which I am, I should be paid equally. I work my as* off picking up 60-80 lb cases and I certainly dont wait for my male coworkers to come and help. If I took the job, I should be able to do it. \n I also believe that if I ask a man out for a drink then I should be the one paying and not get pissed off when he doesnt automatically open his wallet.

not if she is a woman worth knowing. I don't judge by money or cars. It is how he treats me, and others; how he makes me feel.

Yes, we can pay it forward, without any money at all. It's the small things that make the difference, like remembering to be courteous....letting someone with one item go in front of you at the supermarket....bringing a meal to an elderly neighbor....taking in another neighbor's garbage cans on a windy day.....telling another driver that their brake light is busted....putting a coin in a parking meter that's about to expire. It's doing things that no one sees you doing, not because you want recognition or reward - but simply because it's the right thing to do.

Girl - don't be embararassed to ask for your money that you loaned.  A loan means it's to be paid back.  People will take advantage of you everyway they can if they know they can - even FAMILY.  Call your sister and say "look girl, you know my basement flooded and I was trying to give you some time to pay me back that $500 that I loaned you back in January, but it's been like 4 months and I really really need that money like yesterday, because with everything going on, we're kind of strapped for cash right now.  So what time can I come over and pick it up?"  \n\nAnd I absolutely would not bid on anything for her.  It's ashame family has to be that way.  But stand up for yourself girl!!  She should be the one that is embarassed - that is not chump change.  So trust me - she did not FORGET to pay you back - she just has no intentions on doing so and since you haven't mentioned it she probably thinks you forgot.  And forgotten money is lost money.  Make your stand today!!

um...i found a $100 Bill on the ground of a Gas Station. i put my foot over it and looked around to see if anyone was looking and bent down and grabbed it and rushed back to my car and sped away....it was desperatly needed to pay bills...i wish i could find more of them. and no, i dont feel the least bit guilty in keeping it....sometimes you have to accept the things that come your way and never take them for granted.

Because traditonally that's the thing to do and it shows that they guy has good manners. But, I think that it is better if both split the bill and each pay half.
