Default First date etiquette

Posted on behalf of my Cute cousin (girl)... very independant but dude in this scenario knows she is traditional.

Dude asked her out to dinner... nothing serious but it was a prescribed "date". Dude started out the date opening doors for her and she returned the favor.


Nice dinner, good conversation, flirtatious...

Dude asks for the bill... bill comes... she reaches for wallet in an attempt to pay and offers to split the check.

100 thoughts race through his head... he decides to accept her offer of a split.

Now she's pissed and date two is in jeopardy.

Im guessing the dudes thoughts... they are both college students and don't make a ton of money... Dude keeps getting it rammed down his throat at his liberal school about how equal girls want to be.

Was his play totally asinine???

I would say bad move on his part, but it is irritating that girls want to be equal and all, but when the check comes, they get all pissed if the guy doesn't pay.

Ya no kidding they want equal pay in jobs, equal rights, but when the bill comes the man has to pay?!? This is one good reason why men should be paid more in the workplace.

Why would she reach for her wallet if she didn't want to split? I know it's a mind game, but tell your cousin that course of action was unnecessary.

I agree... I'm a pretty black and white guy... and I told my cousin this was rookie fckkking move...

However, but since I always pay... I would have just told her to put her wallet away and I'd get the check. So, I've never actually been in this situation.
