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

I would be suspicious of someone spending that much on a first date, and very uncomfortable. Obviously if they are a high earner and spend like that regularly it would be a non-issue, but there's no way to know that on a first date, so yeah I think I would make a self-deprecating joke about it being too fancy for me, and suggest something more normal. His response to that would give me more information about his mindset and rationale for choosing the spot.
If you can’t read whether someones a high earner even before the date, that’s on you.

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

:pachaha:
thats besides the point

for a first link, she should be open minded the same way he is; like homie said if it goes well they can try the fancier place some other day

these women need to ask themselves whats more important, eating a nice meal or meeting a man who could potentially be a life partner. most women of other races get this; black women dont

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.

I had dinner myself (+ couple glasses of wine) at a non fancy spot in my neighborhood last week and it was $90 after tax/Tip.

$200 date can easily happen on accident

She was looking for free dinner breh. She probably told 5 matches she wants to go there and 3 of them were down to take her so she unmatched you :manny:

For the 3 unluncky brehs, she'll leave one on read, flake on another but meet the 3rd for a nice expensive free dinner. Welcome to online dating brehs :mjgrin:
close thread lol

Why weren’t you able to navigate this minor situation on your own?

Whining cause a woman wants $60 macaroni??
You don’t even know her so just move on. If you don’t wanna spend that type of money, it’s cool. You aren’t obligated. Keep looking and I assure you that you will find a woman that is cool with Dave and Busters or maybe even a movie date. Relaxxxxxxxxxxxx

Levels my G.

To some men, that $60 Mac n cheese entre ain't shyt.

She probably used that as a litmus test on you.

Don't matter if it's "reasonable" or not.

It's all about if u got it...and aren't clinging to those type of amounts of money...then she doesn't have to let go of any type of luxury to fukk with u

She'll gladly give her time and the yams to a man who sees that $60, as $6.50.

And she'll disqualify u by saying you just want the p*ssy...but all men want the p*ssy...it's all about money and what u can do for her.

Very well said! You can’t be upset at someone for having a standard. Oblige or swiftly move around. It’s your life!
