Today, I went out to eat with a group of couples and my boyfriend. All my friends boyfriends paid for them. Mine didn't, and said that I should order off the diet menu. FML

Why should he pay for you? Do you switch off paying? Do you not have a job? He was wrong in calling you fat, but you were wrong expecting him to pay for you.

Well, it was awful of him to say the thing about the diet menu, especially in front of your friends.

But honey, it's 2010. Expecting a man to pay for the meal every time you go on a date is sexist and disrespectful to him. You need to treat each other with equal amounts of respect, or else you'll have a hard time having a truly happy relationships. This means that YOU pay for the date just as often as he does. Or you can split it every single time, but I personally think it's more romantic to just switch turns paying :) My BF was resistant to the idea of me paying for a date at first, but in the end, it shows that I don't assume he's going to take on the financial burden of the relationship just because he's a man, when the truth is I can afford it more than he can.
