OOKK so my BF & I have been dating for some decent amount of time lol 4 months or so.. Things have been going amazingly awesome! He's clearly my best friend @TM. I love our dates when we are with/without the kids!! Well lately we have had these arguements about who pays for dinner,movies, etc etc stuff like that. who is right lol I dun mind him payin for stuff cuz yuh it makes him feel "manly" and what not. He insists on paying for everything and yuh that's cool but I like to pay for somethings too and not being like completely spoiled. Yuh it's nice but I like to treat too and I like it to be 50/50. Yuh he says I'm too difficult must be why he likes me w00t. I mean when and if we get married I want it to be the same exact way with THAT much more communication etc etc. I want some feedback cuz I know a lot of you are verrry opinionated and it's always good to see what others are thinking about this. So yuh yer comments are much welcomed KThxbye =D hehe if you havent noticed I like the word YUH =D

If you are visiting certain restaurants on a regular basis, maybe buy him a gift card for the restaurant or even just one of those visa gift cards. You can do some math for a good amount to give him. Just give it to him as a appreciation gift. Tell him he can spend it any way he wishes, but you'd love for him to spend it on you.

He can pay every time without thinking that you are the one actually contributing. At least that's how I would feel. When I was dating my wife, she wanted to contribute on our dates but I felt uncomfortable with her paying. A few gift certificates solved the problem.

Just an idea. I am sure others can come up with much better advice.

I've been dating my gf for near 2 years now.. I let her leave the tip usually. The rule usually is.. if I ask I pay. If she asks we 50/50.

If the relationship is serious, the guy should pay in order to get accustomed to it in preparation for married life. Just kidding.

No, relationships should be 100/100.
