This is turning into an office argument at lunchtime... what do you think?

[Gaspode_The_Wonder_Dog]

hahaha first date? with another person?

[Betti911]

Yep one of the girls in my office was boasting bout how guys always pay for the 1st date. Just wondering..... I always at least offer to go halfers. Can only remember one guy who actually took me up on it tho.

[MK Chris]

Bet he didn't last long.

I normally try to pay for most things and certainly did/ do on first date but sometimes she insists..

[Ickle Angel]

I usually offer to pay halves just to be polite lol

[Sidders]

You say usually like it happens alot.

[Uglybob]

girls gurn so much to go halfers though, its like they dont want to but they have to yap just to keep them happy. cant win sometimes

[Ickle Angel]

I meant from past experience mate

Yeah but it can be awkward sometimes. Some guys get really peeved if you offer to pay but think you are at it if you don't. I find it difficult to know what to do esp when you are with a guy you like and you know he doesn't make too much money. Its even more awkward if you are working and he is a student.

[Ickle Angel]

I think if you both work then you should take it in turns to pay for things

[tombugler]

Has anyone actually run out on a bill? My girlfriend suggested it the other day and I found myself strangely aroused....

[Ickle Angel]

I havent but a mate did once lol

[Lucie]

First date - girl should offer to pay half but the guy should always refuse and pay himself.

Old fashioned good manners

[Quincy]

women are so tedious.

oh i dont know where that is,

aroused, ha, for once you made me laugh

[MK Chris]

I laughed at the bit before that myself. The bit where he said he had a girlfriend.

[DemonHorse]

You laughed? Hmm better than my near-choke of disbelief I guess...

[Betti911]

C'mon guys be nice

[iSeb]

I have to agree with Lucie...

Old fashioned good manners 8)

And well said Quincy... Too true.

Women are so tedious.

[Betti911]

Depends on the girl tho. I ALWAYS know where I want to go and what I want to see if we're going to the cinema and my boyfriend usually agrees mind you guess he knows what side his breads buttered

Question for the guys..... is it true that 50% of what a guy says to a girl in the 1st month is bollocks?

[MK Chris]

I don't think so to be honest - you'll always get found out afterwards, so there's not really any point unless you're only after a few shags - but then you've got to work out whether that's bollocks or not eh?

[DemonHorse]

Depends on the guy and the girl I guess. Personally I've never been able to lie to someone I actually liked, but at the same time I know guys that do, they think they're being clever but others see straight through it all.

Hell I couldn't even tell a simple lie to one girl I grew to almost hate in the time we were together (long story short: me on rebound, she came on to me, I let it happen, then after a while she got completely obsessed).. the lie would have been to say I loved her, but I was hoping to move on anyways so didn't bother me when she ended it.

[Betti911]

Yep but have you never agreed with a girl you really liked when you've 1st meet to impress her. Not talking about huge lies just like you really enjoyed that chick flick you went to see etc.

[Andy Bkr]

i don't get the entire dating think anymore lol especially the whole " no he/she is not my boyfriend im just seeing him/her" thing or maybe im just old fashioned

[DemonHorse]

Nah I try and be open and my girlfriend loves that about me, closest I've got in the film situation was (be warned, this sounds soooo corny)
"I didn't think much to the film, but the company was fantastic"
(can't remember what film now, it was a while ago).

If I can't be honest to her I say nothing at all....

I lie like a f***er to friends and family though...
