Today, I went on a dinner date with the guy I like. He ate all his food then started eating off my plate, going on to eat over half of my food. When the bill came, he made me pay for it. FML

Today, my date unexpectedly brought her friend to dinner with us. They seemed bored of me after ten minutes and left me out of their conversation for the rest of the night. Oh, and they made me pay for both of them. FML

Today, I went on a date. I took her out to an expensive steak house. When she was done eating, she got up, said she was married, and told me she only accepted the date because I'd be paying for it. FML

Today, after finally getting a date with the girl I like, she invited her new boyfriend along as well. I ended up paying for their first date. FML

Today, I went on a date with a guy who seemed to be quite the gentleman. I was proven wrong when he told me to "shut it" during dinner, stiffed me on the bill, and then left me at the restaurant so he could get his own taxi home. FML

Say hello, wave goodbye
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, I was on a first date. When the bill came, he refused to pay for my $6 salad. I had to go ATM-hunting to pay for my $6 salad. FML

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

Tonight on First Dates
Today, I went on a date that went well, until the bill came and she quickly shoved it in my direction, then went to the loo. Rude, but I thought nothing of it… until our waiter took pity and told me I’m the fourth guy she’s had this week who'd been made to pay for her. I paid half, then went home. FML

This is why you put out. The cost of travel would have been comped if you had sex with him. Quoting the wisdom of a trailer-truck mud flap, "Gas, grass or ass. No one rides for free."

i only know that quote from the blink 182 - first date video. but if i remember correctly, there, it was "ass, gas or grass - nobody rides for free"

Perdix I always down vote your comments simply because your profile talks about Justin bieber, however this one earned its first up vote. Good day sir!

#77, I only mention Bieber because I want to be the next lucky asshole who makes it big from being spotted on the Internet. It happened to Rebecca Black, too.

Best of luck to you then! You are funny as hell so youre on the right path!

Put out or pay up? Makes sense in this high dollar gas crisis! Just kidding, Op! However, I would take this as a clear sign that he's just not into you. Edit- Damn Perdix for beating me by 15 seconds! Lol :)

When is the wedding?
OfficeNinja 5
Either you are dating a taxi driver, somebody who is super mega ultra cheap, or a turd. Could be a combination of two or more of the above list.

I vote for B and C, he's a super mega ultra cheap turd.

wow guys, maybe he's just not well off financially. maybe it's a bit of a dick move to just spring on someone, but gas is expensive and he was probably already paying for her that night. why does money have to be the be all and end all of a relationship?
ManInTheMachine 20
Maybe because this isn't an FML about him asking her for a little gas money. I can see where you're coming from, but if he was that tight on money, then he didn't have to take her out on a date. They could've gone to his house or hers, or even gone to a nice, quiet area and have a picnic date. This is a case of being a stingy douche, not a nice guy that needed money to get home.

I think the problem lies in the standard of dates: He pays for everything and she gets to friendzone him. This time around, though, he actually went "equal rights = equal tabs" and we ALL know that when equality becomes truly equal, it's offensive to (some) women. Did OP offer to split ANY costs at all or did she genuinely expect him to pay her entire evening? From the sound of it, I'm thinking the latter situation is valid.

44) we don't really know if they splitt their bill or not. but if the guy is short on money, it's perfectly tolerable if he asked to splitt the bill. it's even tolerable if he isn't. any women who are offended by this are really old fashioned.

It's sad the world we live in where girls EXPECT us to pay for everything. Get over it. It's double standards if you did the same thing it would be "oh she's probaby just low on cash right now"
xcheshirecat 11
Like you said "girls". Real women pay their stiff

But it didn't say he "asked for gas money." The way its worded makes it seem like he demanded payment for even taking her out.
