roadkingtx Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 Situation: We're dating and she went out with some guys and girlfriends earlier in the day. I showed up 4 hours later after they had drinks and food. I go ahead and order a dinner for myself. She didn't want anything else. She asks for the bill which was divided according to the group that was there eariler. I get my bill. Question: Should I have picked up the entire tab? Her portion? BTW..she has a great job. Owns a company.
Andy_K Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 You should not have paid for anything of hers, because she ate/drank it all way before you got there. Otherwise, you might as well buy her groceries and pay her rent/mortgage too...
DjinnAgain Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 I am one of the women here is wholly in favor of a man paying for his date and there is no way in hell-o that you should pay any more than yours in this situation - so I wouldn't give it a second thought.
Author roadkingtx Posted June 16, 2012 Author Posted June 16, 2012 Thanks all! I felt like she was unreasonable last night. I guess it's better to find out early on rather than later.
amantis Posted June 17, 2012 Posted June 17, 2012 Next time let her pay the bill and see what she have to say . Maybe she is ok paying for the bill and you are stressing out ? you paid for the bill and what was the problem ? It was the first time she did that ? You need to give a bit more details so we can understand how things work between you 2
Pierre Posted June 17, 2012 Posted June 17, 2012 Thanks all! I felt like she was unreasonable last night. I guess it's better to find out early on rather than later. You pay for the bill because you want to pay. There should be no expectations from your part. You are paying the bill because that is who you are as a person. Her salary is a moot point. She could be a billionaire, that is moot.
