Whoever asked the other person out should pay.

Yep, the one who asks is the one who pays.

I'm all in on whoever does the asking pays.

I think that a proper gentleman should pay on the first date, since the whole "wooing" factor is in there somewhere. Afterwards, I would be perfectly Ok with splitting the bill or whatever.

what about same-sex couples?! who ever asks pays! if thats an issue, when the check comes see how your date reacts. if he/she reaches for a wallet to pay--offer to pay or split the check evenly, if that is what you wish. otherwise let your date know that you have dinner.

if there are plans for after dinner, offer to buy dinner and then say "you can get drinks" or whatever your plans may be.

at any rete, the inviter should pay for the invitee.

Whoever asks the person out should pay for sure.

i think the guy should pay

I only insist on paying when I know I am not going to go out with them again. Otherwise I let him pickup the bill.

i'm old fashioned. i look pretty, he pays. i don't really care if people think this is similar to prostitution, lol.

it is not prostitution, you aint sleeping with for monet girl. This is teh way it usually happens, the men pay.

But my rule is, who ever invites pays regardless fo sex

Im always for whoever asks is the one who pays. Being me though I always offer to at least pay my half.

1. whoever did the asking pays.
2. whoever suggested the dining place/movie to watch pays.
3. whoever wants to be in control pays.
4. whoever paid for dinner, the other party can pay for drinks/movies etc later.

whoever asks, pays.

I always offer to pay, but do not expect them to accept. If they do, it will probably be our last date. Then again, I never ask guys out so I guess it still goes by the "whoever asks, pays" rule.

Down here in the south, we believe the guy should always pay

Agreed, whoever invited should pay the bill. You can't invite a man to dinner, expecting him to pay. lol

If you ask you pay. Makes sense to me.

I agree, I think whoever asks should foot the bill.

But I don't think there is anything wrong with the opposite person leaving the tip either.

whoever does the asking should pay.....

The man always pays

I'm old fashion - first date I would say the guy pays. What my bf and I usually do is, he pays the dinner and I pay whatever comes next after dinner.... movie, snacks, delivery food, rented movie...

i think it should be dutch but my bext friend believe the guy should always pay. she is very old fashioned.

"If you pursue, then you pay."

Good rule.

I chose Other.

Here's my belief. If he's the one who did the asking and you agreed, then split the costs. If you're the one who did the asking, you pay for it.
