Is it tacky for a guy to ask a woman that he just met for money and he has'nt even taken her out yet ?

Guys like this are professionals, P.I.M.P's and they prey on women that are established as having it going on, meaning own stable living quarters, job, money car etc. He just needed time to fill you out see what you were willing to give. 9 times out of ten he already has a girl and if not he is looking for someone that is willing to pay to play , don't let that be you.

y would you want a woman to pay for dates?  Don't you know that their are woman out there that have had their share of paying for dates without putting out.  I've dated guys who I felt sorry for and would do that.  sorry, but I think it is 5050.  Not just the girls.  I don't believe a guy should have to pay all the time either.  Express to that person that you would want to go 5050 or duche.

Kind of like Hithere mentioned, but more specific.  If you just ask to hang out with him sometime that won't do anything.  You're missing a specific date and time in there and what to do.  The guy is just going to be like "Sure, let's hang out sometime." and that's it.  So you have to have something specific in mind.  "Are you free this weekend?"  Yes or no answer.  "Would you like to go to... with me?"  Again, yes or no.  "Cool, what time can I pick you up?"

I  sense some hostility with the answers so far so ill be very careful. if u just met than there is a cardinal rule never call in the first 4-5 days so that they dont think ur all over them or desperate. if thats not the case than he either has a good reason like in the hospital or just lied it happens not only men do this though and i hope that the other ladies who read this will acknowledge that. women are just as bad as men if not worse because their better at it.

I'd be upfront and ask her abou this other person. It also depends I guess on what your intentions are towards this woman.

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

You can offer to pay - but do it discreetly. Most guys like to be a gentleman and pay for everything - but it does get expensive! Maybe, let the guy pay. Then discreetly give him the money to pay for something - so it looks like he's paying. He will think you're thoughtful - you've considered his finances and understood his pride! \n\nOf course you can take it in turns paying. You also have to take into account who has the higher income - if he does and he insists on paying - maybe you should let him - if there are no strings attached. But some men see paying for everything as "buying" you and you then feel under their control. Don't let that happen.

Sometimes it is best to be straight forward in situations like this.  I know that's easier said than done but with this approach it leaves no room for guessing on his part.  You don't have to be rude but you do have to be honest.  That way he will get the picture and leave you alone for good.  Good luck.\n\nP.S.  I had to do this before and the guy actually thanked me for being honest and we're actually friends now.  He has a girlfriend and everything.

Meet one, date for several months, then pop the question.\n\nOr flash her your cash and head to Las Vegas tonight.

You obviously seem to thing that it is a "form of bribery" or you wouldn't be asking this question.\n\nI wonder about his self-esteem, and I wonder if he will become very controling and jealous. \n\nI wonder if he plans to own you.\n\nIf you are curious about it ASK HIM.\n\n"I'm not sure that I've ever dated anyone as generous as you and I really appreciate it, and I also wonder if maybe you feel like you have to buy me things to keep me intereted? To be honest, all the gifts and money you've spent on me has actually sort of turned me off a little. Its too much too soon."

Hey pardner, didn't they tell you that it is BAD MANNERS to ask about a man's income, or girl's age ?\n...In today's society, even the vice-versa of the same would apply !\nBing - go !

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!!

that's like asking someone if they are a gold digger or not. I don't see why they shouldn't but I don't see why they should, I would probably take a girl out on a very nice dinner. like a REALLY nice dinner.....it doesn't really matter one way or the other.

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...
