Question Time!

I really like you
Okay, here's another question that was prompted by my Tuesday night date with MF...

For straight guys: do you feel weird when a girl takes you out to an expensive dinner and pays?

For straight girls: would you take a guy out for an expensive dinner?

"Expensive dinner" in both these cases involve dressing up.

Would you ever do it as a "just-because" kind of thing?

sure, why not? i guess the thing is, most times i've went out to dinner with a bf "just because" we both paid, or whoever was "due" that time around picked up the bill. maybe it would be different if it was something i planned...hmmm.

Yes, I would take a guy out for an expensive dinner. But in the Seattle area, most places don't require dressing up.

I mean, it depends on the girl. But generally, yes, I'd feel uncomfortable if she paid - or at least didn't let me pay half. Or something.

It kind of depends on where we are in the relationship. if we have been going out for a while, then no.

Arlina and I use to bet on things that one or the other of us thought we were sure of. If I won. she took me to an expensive dinner, if she won, I did the same. I'll never forget how fun it was the first time I won, and she took me to the best place in town.

I don't think its weird, especially how "equality" is a big thing with the world today.

I typically pay when we go out, but its nice when Angie surprises me with picking up the check. Its good to see some give and take?

I agree. I pay 90% of the time - thats just what you do as a gentleman. So when I am informed that we are going out on her treat its a nice change - or just when she can grab the check before I can and treats me.

The followup is this though: what was his reaction when you got home? ;)

When I first read the question, I thought, "I already have." And then I thought about it some more and I wasn't so sure anymore because we constantly take turns paying and sometimes even fight over the bill that I don't remember what I've paid for. There have only been a few times in which we went to a nice place and dressed up and I can't remember who paid, except for this past Valentine's Day in which I know he paid.
