Today, I went to the movies with my crush, who had asked me out on a date. Assuming he'd pay, I left my money at home. When the time came to buy the tickets, he only bought one for himself. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I went to the movies on a date. I went to pay for the tickets when I realized that I didn't have my wallet. Instead of my boyfriend paying, he laughed and paid for his own ticket. Then he went ahead and saw the movie without me. FML
Today, I went on what I thought was a solo outing with my longtime crush. He decided to invite a friend along. I had to pick her up half an hour away from town, he treated her to the movie we were watching while I had to pay for myself, he fingered her in the theatre, and made out with her on the drive home. FML
Today, my boyfriend wanted to take me to a movie after days of not seeing me. This long-awaited date involved me paying for food and my movie ticket when he ran out of cash again. He then dumped me as we left the theater walking to his car. Yes, I financed my own breakup date. FML
Today, this guy and I went on a date to the movies. We got up to the desk and I asked for one ticket for 'Jennifer's Body.' The guy moved his way in front of me and said, "make that two tickets." He then walked away to look at movie posters and left me with the $22.50 charge. FML
Today, I went to the movies with my boyfriend. We went inside the theatre and he saw a couple of his friends. Instead of saying hi and coming back to watch the movie with me, he ditched me for them. When I reminded him he was forgetting something, he grabbed the popcorn out of my hands and left. FML
Today, I went on a movie date with a guy. He brought his mom. FML
Today, I went on a date at a restaurant with a guy. When he promised I wouldn't have to pay the bill, I didn't think he meant we'd be dining and dashing. FML
Today, I was watching a movie alone, after receiving a text from my boyfriend saying that his grandma was at the hospital, so he couldn't go with me. I caught him on a date with another girl, at the same movie screening that I went to. FML
Today, I took my girlfriend of a year out on a date, a nice fancy dinner and a movie. After dinner, I said that I was feeling sick and just wanted to go home. I didn't have the heart to tell her that dinner was so expensive that I didn't have money for the movie. FML
Today, my date made me pay him for picking me up, and taking me back home. FML

Never, ever, assume

Contrary to popular belief it's ignorant to be so confident in this "rule" that you don't bring your own money, I believe it was totally deserved in this case. This doesn't mean I don't believe the guy should pay though so don't get confused.

okay just gonna state my opinion so dont hate on me for having a mind and then saying that you should think for yourself -.- okay well you should always have emegrancy money on you in case thats one thing, second i only assuming since he asked you out you thought he would pay and maybe if it were vice versa then you would pay for him if thats not what goes in your head and you think that you are above higher standers and go dance on sugar daddys then ya you deserve it :P but im guessing its not the latter

It's outdated to think the guy will always pay... And even if he did, what if some emergency came up afterwards and you needed cash? For all you know he could've planned on you each paying for your own ticket and then him paying for the snacks (which at my theater are about the same as a ticket...) he isn't automatically a douche.

Well it's always good to keep money with you in that situation. He was a douche though for not paying for the date since he asked you.

I don't get why most women automatically assume that just because their on a date, the man has to pay. Women can pay for a date every now and then. Shouldn't just be one person paying all the time

Whoever asks, man or woman, should be the one to pay, but always bring your own cash! What if you want to bail because they turn into a jerk and they're your ride? Forget the bad idea of assuming for a minute and try to become more of a Boy Scout.

i don't get why, just because I'm a guy, we are expected to pay despite girls being fully capable. I pay for both of us because it would seem rude if I didn't, but its ironic because you have feminists wanting equality when they ignore the common things men have to do in life.

Honestly, I hope he didn't pay and went to enjoy the movie by himself. Did her even say date? Or was he asking you as a friend and you just assumed. It's freaking 2013(2014), women and men are independent people! Ffs OP

I always have money and pay for myself because I think it's just polite. Or I pay for them because it's not just the guys job all the time... Girls can pay for guys too

Usually it's whoever asked the person out. If a guy asks a guy out then he should pay, but if the girl asks the guys out then she should pay.

I always make sure they know they're paying for me. I want a gentlemen that pays for his date not a boy that doesn't.
