Who Pays?
Hi Frankie,
I would like to get your opinion about something. My male friend who is a lawyer was asked out for a date by a female lawyer. She picked an expensive restaurant and when the bill came she did not offer to cover it.
At what point can we expect our female dates to pay 50% or the whole thing?
Thank you very much.

This woman’s behaviour is deplorable! A woman who invites a man for dinner should expect to pay, but the man should offer to split the tab, especially if this is a first date. A classy lady would graciously thank the man and suggest he pay the next time.
In our culture because men are the ones who typically ask for the date, women misconstrue this to mean men should also be responsible for paying. Women need to be proactive and broach the topic of who pays on dates, and in my opinion singles should split the bill until they reach a point in their relationship when ’who pays’ no longer matters.
