I'm a tech guy. I dont mind the occasional redistribution of wealth from corporations. I can even appreciate exploits found in the wild like this or doing hacking when it doesn't hurt people.
What this signals, though, is that you are cheap. I side with the girl on this. It's a date. Pay for the meal and show her you can be normal first.
Split the check. It's 2024.
How is it still expected for men to pay in this day and age. When I'm on a date I'm looking for an equal partner, not a dependent.
IME it hasn't been expected in some time, at least from me. If I invite someone out on a date, I'm usually offering, but I've definitely had many split checks and a few that paid for the whole thing.
