Cheap

By Nator - This FML is from back in 2009 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, this guy took me to Denny's on a first date and used a 2-for-1 coupon. It was expired. I paid. FML

Oh my god this girl had to PAY FOR HER OWN MEAL!????? When there was a MALE human present!?!!?!?!? Obviously since she has a ****** she is owed free food by any man unlucky enough to spend time with her in a restaurant. Count yourself lucky for finding a date.

Okay, for everyone who thinks, "Oh, well, women need to learn to pay, too". That is NOT the point. The point is that HE invited her and HE took her out. If it had been her idea, it would have been a different story, but if he invited her, he's expected to pay. I mean, sure, I've taken my boyfriend out for dinner quite a few times (One time I had about $150 to spend on him), but if he says he's taking me out, that means he's paying, so I don't have to worry about it. Something like that happened to my cousin, except it was with her dad and his fiance. My cousin's dad invited her and her boyfriend out to dinner to Red Lobster. My cousin's dad and fiance got drunk and ate a bunch of food, then said they didn't have any money, and left.

It's not old fashioned to expect not to pay for Both of you when a guy "takes you on a first date". Dutch is fine but she shouldn't pay for everything when he takes her out. That's not "expecting" or "old fashioned" it's common courtesy.

Ok. I know whoever invites pays, but it was just an accident. As long as he takes care of it later he should be fine. And quit bashing this guy for the venue. Some of us don't have a lot of money. I respect him for doing the best he could.
