Where is the limit? Please elaborate! I know I'm not there to buy affection but I'll do the gentleman things and such.

In States I've heard it's different, with guy paying being quite common.

For example you can pay for dinner, but she can pay for drinks, or dessert somewhere else. Maybe you can pay for a meal, then she can get the next one. I would doubt that a girl would really expect you to pay for ALL her meals (thats crazy right?). But as a man, I feel you should be ready to pay for more stuff in the beginning. Thats my two cents! Good luck _________________ Rise up, rise up, rise up

i also think that if you invite them out somewhere, its ok for you to pay, and vice versa. just say "tonight is my treat. next time you can treat me." or something along those lines.
good luck!

You could pay for say 60% of the time and she could for the remaining 40% whenever you guys are out. You might end up paying more or your bills may be higher but its not about the money its about having a good time and no one taking advantage of the other.
When I'm out with someone, I'd normally take the first check and just act like I know they want to pay but I'll pay it this time and they could pick up the tab the next time we are out.
She should have been offering by now !!
