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

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.

never assume. I always go by this, "when you assume you make an ASS out of U and ME". I don't remember where that is from but its always stuck with me.

:O That phrase is a no-no here. It's been way overused in the past.

It's never a good idea to assume, especially in circumstances like this. It isn't uncommon now for people to share the cost of the date, or even for the woman to offer to pay in full. The world is changing. YDI OP, sorry.

Who doesn't take money with them? You are a weirdo and he did the right thing

he should have paid but I've always been told that a woman should always have money with her when she's on a date.

I would be one to bring my own money, but he still should have paid for you

I'm sorry, but I think that's rude. He asked her out, he should pay. Not just because of my personal views, but also cause it's just the polite thing to do! You asked them out, you should pay IMO.

So if I ask you to go to a concert with me, or to lunch, or to have drinks, I automatically have to pay for all of your stuff because I suggested it? **** that.
