It's not true for me.  I'm pretty consistent across the board.  I've found it to be true for some women that I've dated, to the point where it almost felt like a bait 'n switch!

Thus far, the conclusion I'm drawing is that men tend to be on their best behavior early on, while women tend to be on their best behavior later on. Thinking back, I've generally found women to be on their best behavior after we have sex for the first time. There were exceptions, of course, but that's the trend of my somewhat limited experience.

Or in other words, men want to attract, and women want to keep.

If your only yardstick of good behavior is who pays for the date(which for some bizarre reason, it seems to be)  yeah, women generally share more expenses later on..so they get better 

 

Plenty of examples here and elsewhere of women ‘showing their crazy’ later on in relationships though. Taking advantage of the guy, acting insecure, becoming mean after they’ve been together a while. List goes on

I never said it was my only yardstick. I'm talking about overall effort. I tend to use it (probably overuse it) as an example because it doesn't require any particular skills, such as cooking. I can certainly appreciate other efforts made, I just don't tend to see them early on.
