Ladies, why do you expect a $200 dinner for a first date?

[Menna]

I got this chicks number off hinge, never met her don't even know her last name. She tells me she's free tomorrow at 7 and she really likes this Italian place. So I google the place and look at the menu. It's $60 for a mac and cheese entree, yea I bet your ass likes this place. I told her lets just meet up for apps and drinks for the first date. if everything goes well we have plenty of time to get fancy. She left me on read and then unmatched me.

Now she is a nurse so maybe she is used to spending her own money. But where does she get the audacity to ask this of a man for a first date? Does this mean other guys have done it? Was she testing me? I didn't even want to meet up with her after that to be honest.

I wanna know why yall think you are entitled to this on the first date? I wasn't gonna take her to applebees but I am also not spending $200 plus drinks on a bytch I don't even know her last name.

Because them getting ready costs them $100+ they say, the products they use, using their shoes, clothes, time…so they expect you to pay $100+ to “compensate” themselves for how much it costs for them to get ready for you.

The thing is we don’t ask them to be extra or do all that so by us being involved they impose their own standards it’s entrapment. Just move on who cares really.

I matched with this bangin 22 year old on hinge. She asked me “so why are you on hinge?” I said . “Its a dating app…I’m single”

No reply after that. Who knows what goes on in ppls heads really

Man don't even sweat it. Honestly some of the smartest shyt I heard about dating for the first time came from Gilly Da Kid. Took a woman out, told her he forgot his wallet, she was mad cool and paid without hesitation. He gave her like $400 at the end of the night for being loyal and now they married. Find you a baddie who's got your back, it her hand in your back pocket. Thus whole "spoil a woman" mentality is dumb. Life is expensive. If she's down to build, she's a keeper. If not keep her cumming and going. That's it.

My main guess for why a woman would suggest that much is because she doesn't believe a man is really trying to get to know her.

Maybe she started off going on $20 dates with men who ended up not putting in effort to get to know her during their time together so now her head is messed up.

It seems to be so much worse with the social media generations.

Gillie the kid is a weirdo. I heard him tell that story, he’s a bozo.

The only mistake I can see on your part is by making a different suggestion after researching the restaurant.

You should've unmatched right then. She's obviously looking for a free meal and does not eat there on her own dime.

Never date a woman who tells you where to go on the first date. It's a massive red flag. Now you know the signs, OP.

 

[Serious]

First date isn’t an expensive date.

Gotta have something to build up to….

 

[Sonic Boom of the South]

As a man you a sucka to even give a bih an option for a 1st date.


I do a meet and greet based on wtf I feel like.


If I just want to meet at a book store then that's it.

Taco Truck

Mexican restaurants were always my go to place for beginning dates.

Fun atmosphere, great food and drinks....women love margaritas, and very reasonable prices.

I get that. I was willing to do apps and drinks somewhere else nice.

 

[BaggerofTea]

Have you ever been to said restaurant?

If not, I would have taken it as an opportunity for me to try something new even though she seems to be familiar with the spot.

I’m not gonna be mad at someone for their taste especially when you probably asked her what she liked and what her favorite spot was.

Seems juvenile to ask then pretend she was suppose to avoid what she likes just so she can go on a date with you

I visualized choking the living life out of you for posting this garbage

 

[Shadow King]

This is why I'm not dating.

 

[Mike809]

the best first dates are to the museum, especially if they let you in for free or a choose-your-own donation.

If things are still going well after an hour or two , you can move on to drinks/snacks.

 

[Piff Perkins]

She told you where she wanted to eat, you balked, she moved on. No harm no foul. I assume if she had asked where you want to eat you would have mentioned some cheap uninspired choice and she would have moved on.

Men should have a general idea of the best restaurants in their city and lean on them for date ideas instead of the lazy “dinner and drinks ie Applebees” lazy shyt. Assuming she recommended a good restaurant I would have had no issue going if she was attractive/interesting. I’m in it for good food.

Bozo or not, that's a keeper. It's about building together, not pampering and spoiling her...

If you're trying to smash, be honest. Some ladies just want to fukk the same as us.

If you're feeling her and trying to build, than be honest with yourself.
