Nope! I can also appreciate a woman who doesn't need to flourish off of a man's money, just as much as another man can appreciate one who can/will. Of course, everyone is different.

Ha! I didn't mean it that way dad. I was speaking on the premise of dealing with women who are usually solely catered to by men under most circumstances. I try to weed them out early. Courting or not, I can appreciate some balance.

You know, this was my immediate reaction too, but it was weird having the conversation with her. It wasn't actually about buddying up or using. Just literally, any drink she ordered if she was not with someone showed up with a "that guy over there wanted to pay for this" sort of thing. Wasn't about leading them on or dating them to get free drinks. She did admit to paying for her own drinks when out at a dinner with girlfriends, rather than a bar.

Yeah, that lends exactly to my response to i8 dad about circumstances surrounding the purchase and interactions. Of course, social settings and intentions will vary.

No qualifiers. Dating or just meeting, if a man likes women and has taken them out, he has bought a drink or paid for a meal.

Of course! We are not denying that. But 1MOREMOD and I, I think, are on the same page (through the alien-speak).


You wouldn't buy drinks for a random woman for attention, would you?! She should buy you the drinks after seeing that you own the car from Mission Impossible. *opens Lambo doors and turns swag on*

If this is the case, I can say that I've never purchased a drink for a woman in this specific circumstance.

But I have purchased rounds for the bar...#$5,000BarTab.

Agreed. They really try. One was angling hard for a ride last week and another on yesterday. No joy.

I suspect that Sara's situation is largely similar.
I'm the same way. I never let a girl pay for anything. But I've also realized, it's cheaper to have a race car.

Big difference between being socially and physically incapable of getting women so have to bribe them with a drink. You do it for anyone besides a date, ie random chicks you're lame.

Like I said, alien-speak for most people.

Agreed.

With the exception of one prom date, my wife is actually the first and only woman I ever walked up to. All others have approached me or called me from pics in yearbooks or in the newspaper, when I was younger. Still happens now. Never needed any car, fancy suit, or other props.

I strongly dislike having someone pay for me. Obviously if we're spending a decent amount of time together to where it becomes a "you get this one, I'll get the next one" sort of thing, that's different. I've seen too many examples of women using men for free things, and too many examples of men using money as a way to control/get what they want out of women. It's such a turn off. I'm probably more biased against having someone pay than I should be, but it is what it is. Money, for me, is freedom to do what I want, when I want, how I want. If it's someone else's money on someone else's terms, that's not worth it to me.

Edit: That was kind of ranty and not quite on topic, but it irks me... I had so many friends in college who went out with the sole intention of getting men to buy them drinks.
