How soon is too soon to ask a man you are dating for money??

Well, waiting for him to offer money first would be your best bet.  If you ask before he offers, he might think you are a gold digger.  Hint to him you are broke and you need a jump start until you can get on your feet.  Or maybe borrowing the money would make you look more responsible.

in the very begining.  if you're looking for exclusivity, then why waste your time on a guy who isn't. it doesn't mean that you have to start as soon as you ask, you two should still get to know each other first, but it's good to know if that's the type of relationship he's looking for. Just think there's a lot of guys who don't want committment at all and won't tell you, so if you wait for him to bring it up you'd really be wasting your time.

it sounds like you have what I call a "non-date" on your hands. This is super awkward, and you wont know what it is until the end of the night, hopefully! Basically, if he pays, tries to kiss you, or makes any move...you're in. If not, he is either shy as hell or just wants you as a friend. good luck. you sound like my life.

In all reality, girls would probably go for a LOT less than they say. If the guy was standing in front of you with a couple hundred, I'm sure you'd probably take it. Expecially if it was a guy that the girl knew. The power of money is endless...

I would say too soon.  In my single days, I never shared my number until a few phone coversations with the other person!  I always asked for their number and blocked mine when I called.  I would wait a few weeks or even a few months...but that's just me.\n\nMy work doesn't even have my home number, just my cell - I'm very secretive about that.  :P

Simply ask before the day of the date.  Bring it up in conversation.  I feel like if he asked you he should pay, but you will never know unless you ask

How old is your boyfriend. Aren't you a little bit young to be worried about a mans finances?

I totally agree with you, cheap guys are a big turn off!  it tells you a lot about them and about how they would be in a relationship... people that are cheap with money are often just as frugal with showing emotions, holiday gifts etc etc...its a big flaw and a red flag for me !if a guy values you he does not pinch pennies with you, or expect you to pay on dates etc...a guy like that   never gets a second date with a smart gal!!

honestly!\n\nwhy are you bothering?\n\nYou'll end up the person who will be supporting his habit 'cause he needs to borrow $20 (and he promises to pay you back, and he never does!)\n\nHe'll sweet talk you, he's probably got a way with words... but you'll be wasting your time! What do you expect to get out of this relationship?\n\n...And to top this off, be weary he'll eventually be stealing from you too! (This will definitely happen if he's out of work, can't hold a job down!)

If you really want to be w/him, tell him.  You earn nothing without risk.  Time you spend wondering is time that you could be spending together.  Ask him to go do something tomorrow-ANYTHING-just spend some time with him and the rest will work out.

Hell no!  LOL!  I know, I know... some women are into that, but it ain't me.  Dating is an interview for marriage imo, and if he can't support me on a little thing like that... why would I expect him to be financially stable on anything else?  Now, later on in the relationship... after you've been together say, at least 6 months... then I could see helping a dude out if he needs it.  I've given my man $20 here and there for gas when he was having a rough time.  But in general, he knows how I feel about those things.  Luckily for me though, he feels the same way... has pride about providing for "his woman" or whatever.  heh.\n\nP.S. Why are you asking this?  Is it out of your own concern, or is it because he *refuses* to pay more than 50%?  Cause I think that makes a big difference in how it should be addressed...

You are a minnow in a big pond, an inconsequential thing that he might consider if it is convenient.  He perceives your offer is right on the edge of inconsequential.  Now if it looked like you could be very valuable to him, you would have a higher priority.  Right now, he's got piles and piles of things to juggle space and time for, almost all being more valuable than you.  Figure out an advantage (to him) or blow it off.  He's not lying, he's just busy and your value isn't perceived as high enough to merit nailing down the time and effort.  Sorry.  It's like dating a gorgeous woman who can have almost anyman she wants, why would she want you?  You've got to be worth it to her somehow.  This is different from desperate plain Jane's--right now you are behaving like the deseparate plain Jane who is mad that some guy who smiled at you hasn't called.

We wait 3 standard days before calling so as not to appear despirate and possibly lse your respect. Remember, this note was outside. Anyone could have picked it up. Including the wind. You obviously know he's interested. After the 3 days have passed, walk up to him and ask him what he thinks. Are you two on or not?

Some people feel that they are getting too attached too quickly because they had just ended a relationship or they are afraid of a one way street commitment... in this case, I would just ask him what he thinks of the relationship.  Does he consider you guys friends or dating... sometimes you have to put the question on the table and cut out the bullcrap

I agree, for a guy, probably not that important. It can send a message though-- after all, if you dressin an outlandish way, or totally slob-like, then obviously you may be showing disinterest, or may draw attention to your clothes specifically, when the date should be about getting to know each other more (hopefully). Of course, if that's your style, then I say go for it, and see if the guy digs it.

Never wait for a guy to "get his ducks in a line."  Relationships are supposed to be fluid and encompassing - waiting until "the time is right" is just another way of announcing that he is not ready - not for you at least, and maybe not for anybody.  Go out with #2 and see where it takes you.  If #1 "gets his ducks in a' row (sheesh) then maybe he will come back around and - if he does - THEN you will have to see where you stand in your own life.  You may be so "over" #1 that you'll wonder why you even considered waiting for him.

It depends on the girl. Most would not think this is too soon. Try and get clues from the girl herself. (she would know)
