Oh I feel for you, I've had a few doozies myself. Like the guy who I thought was cheap and then when I dropped him he asked me why, I said "because I thought there was one person doing all the giving and another doing all the taking", he said "well if I thought there was a future I might have put more into it", I just let it go at that, lesson learnt.
I think your dude may be a nervous, newly minted single, but honey you want them pre-formed and not have to waste time making them human. However, I would also like to know if he improves with time, but that is selfish on my part.

I think you did well and it was a good investment! For only $20 and a few hours of your time, you learned that this guy is a loser right off the bat! Money well spent! I WISH I could of paid $20 on the first date to find out that my ex was a big time loser! I totally disagree with going out with him again. Have a little respect respect for yourself and keep searching til you find a real MAN. They are out there, and you deserve it!0

Hmmm....why didn't I think of that? I like that idea. What did he write about himself in the profile and what kind of impression does he give with his pictures?0 -
#1 he should have paid for the meal and given you your money back.
#2 he said he doesnt like killing animals but yet he ate "some chicken instead of a greasy burger"
#3 height shouldnt matter
#4 topic of convo was a bit weird but Ive had worse
#5 when am I taking you out?0 -

You sir, are a CHEAP SKATE. :frown:dont get me wrong as long as she doest assume i'm paying and at least offers to pay half i quite happily pay for the meal 21st century or not!!! its just the gentlemanly thing to do if a 2nd date is on the cards then she can take me out for dinner etcWow, a lot of you girls are a little ... psychotic. About the buying meals for you thing. Just because men on average earn more than women, doesn't mean that all men are rolling around in money. And even if we are, if all you're after is a free meal ...
All I'm saying is that if you require a guy to pay for you, you better be putting out on the first date.
You sir, are a CHEAP SKATE. :frown:
"*kitten*" would be more appropriate for this guy. Let's take this a piece at a time, shall we?
Furthermore ... a man's security in his masculinity is not analogous to requiring he pay for dinner. (In fact, I might argue it's entirely the opposite.)
You sound as though the only investment you have in a man is how much he's willing to spend to be with you. You're right, $20 isn't that much, but if the dinner doesn't go anywhere, or if you're just super boring—wow, I'll bet that's something you've never been called—that's a pretty bad investment. (I guess if I have fun I'm more inclined to pay.)
But then, I'm also from an area where the women are less likely to let you pay for them. More than once I've paid for a night out only to find a $20 slipped into my pocket later or something.You sir, are a CHEAP SKATE. :frown:
Definately a woman.... NOT ON A DATE WITH YOU!
Judging from the responses of other Women stating the same as me. Tell us all, what does that make us?
The thing is, firstly, I would rarely ask a girl out to dinner somewhere; namely because I don’t much care for restaurants. I cook very well and would much rather do a home cooked meal than go out somewhere and be dissatisfied with the meal.
Secondly, I get asked to go on dates. I don’t assume that the woman is going to pay for me simply because she asked me out. I assume that I should pay my own way. According to the standards of many in here, I should assume that she’s going to pay for me. That seems like bull****. If I’m interested in seeing her, I should be just as willing to put a few bucks into it. I guess if I’m NOT interested in seeing her I could let her pay for my time, but that seems pretty entitled.
Seems to me that it should be mutual investment in one another's time.0 -
If you're not interested in seeing her, you should say no. Novel concept, I know.
And a date is not an investment, Einstein. It's an invitation. Whether it's extended from man to woman or vice versa, the person who does the asking should pay. I'm sorry your parents didn't raise you with any standard of etiquette, but that doesn't excuse you from picking up a book or asking an actual man for advice once you became a big boy.
Furthermore, your investment metaphor is horribly contrived. When you buy stock (that's a real investment, not a made-up one), you don't get to say "I'm only going to pay for half of this because it could turn out to be a bad investment." You have to actually pay for ALL of the stock you want to buy.
I would love to be a fly on the wall while you're explaining to the lucky women who get to date you that you see them as investments to be bought and sold at your whim. I bet that strategy is a real panty-dropper.0 -
Really, he kept the change?
I'm sorry but that's just not right!
Not only a douche, but a tightfisted one at that. Next....0 -
