If you invite, you pay. But it's always nice for the other party to offer to reciprocate.

First date : Dutch
Second date : normally a guy pays !! |

If I ask a woman out, I don't expect "Dutch". But if she at least offers to open her pocket book, that's always appreciated.

First date : Dutch Second date : normally a guy pays !! Leave us out of it, please! What you guys mean with that is not how we Dutch ppl do things on a date at all :) I've never met a guy for a meet & greet who was okay with me paying, not even half. So whatever you mean, it isn't the Dutch way.

A first date is a mutual agreement to explore over whatever... Dutch , works well . If that goes well, and then you invite her out .... the guy , like me , will pay anyway ...and pay and pay ha ha !!

Oops.. forgot you were Dutch .... And seriously , if I could snag a date with you , you never have to worry about paying ... I am a stupid gentleman when it comes to that !! Going Dutch in North America simply means splitting the bill or paying your own way .... women here kinda like it ha ha!!! |

I know what it means, but it's a silly expression. I know we have a reputation of being cheap but isn't necessarily correct. As for a date... I think we could have a lot of fun! I might even wear a dress, hihi. |

If he invites he pays but in case i want to order more after we ordered our first set,in the first set i chose to order the affordable one, creatively so he will not feel im under estimating his capability to pay,then i will say,i want him to try one menu ,pls allow me to pay for this .

This has been a question that’s always been easy to answer yet still put under a microscope.
If you want it, you buy it. Pay your own way. Don’t go walking around expecting someone to pay for you, entitlement is unattractive and clearly shows your personality/morales. If someone expects you to pay for them walk away and don’t look back. I don’t care if it’s a coffee or filet mignon. |

Going out on a first date? Be a gentleman. Pick up the tab...

Given the disasters most people make
of dating, perhaps FEMA should pay for first dates. |

Some are paying without going on date, just to go for date.
If the date is successful, an feels like she is the perfect match to move ahead the conversation an goes well after knowing eachother more well ahead. & In future, may lead to marriage. Then the whole life is the husband, Who will be always paying for it. So i toast.. either 50/50 or she should pay on first date.

RG and Robin know what’s up!
If you’re going along just fine and she wants you and to be apart of your life then it might take her asking him out and paying the first time to make it happen. The days of gentlemen and chivalry (technically a code of conduct for knights in Middle Ages) are over because women killed it by giving them what they want. We’re now entering the fallout. Even women can’t stand bumble now, I’m so shocked. Some things never change. |

Some things have never changed, and some things have never changed for certain people :) It's all about personal growth and emotional maturity. The biggest problems are experienced by people -esp men- who cannot go with the changing times where woman is equal to man. Those are the men that blame women for everything that goes wrong in their life and don't take responsibility for their own part in it. People that have no problem with this shift also don't have a problem in dating. |

Men and women are not equal. Perhaps, if you initiate a discussion/ topic you should be receptive to different views. This statement appears finite and without motive or even rationale in response to Crystal's perception. Just a thought, use it/ don't use it |

Even women can’t stand bumble now, I’m so shocked. Some things never change. First of all. I take forum as entertainment an passing of time bye. Secondly, what i posted is just a humour.. Nothing to do with seriously dating. And i would never talk about the real single mate on any dating or chatting site about any seriously relationship between me an my mate, whether i date or dOn,t I have respect for Women's an i know well about my tag line.
