A few weeks ago I wrote part two…now it's time for part three. After much thought about what topic to breach next, I finally choice money as this one's topic.
Today most women work. We are making our own money, working hard for it like men do. Now why is it so many women still expect a man to pay for everything? Now doesn't a man work just as hard as a woman for their money?
Stop expecting him to pay for everything. If he offers, say thank you and mean it. He works hard to make his money. He has his bills to pay and chooses to spend his hard earned money on you. Be grateful not stuck up. If he wants to wants to pay that's ok, but don't expect it. It's his choice to do so, but prepare yourself to pay your own way too.
If you (ladies) make the plans for the date don't expect him to foot the bill. Using the same logic (or illogic depending on how one looks at it), when you are asked out by a guy, then expecting him to pay, wouldn't the same rules apply in reverse? You asked him out, you pay for the night. You asked him out, you pay for the night? Yes, turnabout is fair play. Yes, dutch is also acceptable for either party asking the other out. That's working out details and coming prepared for dutch is something you should do anyway.
Now ladies why is it we work hard in school, go on to college (sometimes tech schools or not even but straight) into the work force, climbing the corporate ladder and many women still won't date a man that makes less than they do? I can' only conclude that the mind-set is these women still want the man to take care of them. Do you realize how many potentially good men you are letting pass by because of money? The best thing that could happen to you has just been lost to another because you are most concerned with the size of his bank account than how good he can be to you.
Perhaps when you stop looking at the men's bank accounts, and expect them to pay for everything and take the reasonability on yourself to get your bills met, to get you the things you want, and to make yourself happy. Now look at the men that ask you out (or you are interested in to ask out), and see what kind of person they are, who they are, and see if that is someone that you would like to spend the time and effort to get to know. Then, just then you might find that "good guy" that is meant for you.
