If you cannot afford to take someone out on a date

If you cannot afford to take someone out on a date, you should not be dating. You should be focusing first on getting your finances in order. This is directed towards all genders and all orientations, though for slightly different reasons.

If you are a man in a heterosexual relationship, you need to be paying for more of the meals and activities than the woman. Women make less than 84% of what men make, and women don't get a discount on the necessities. Instead they have additional necessities like feminine hygiene products. Men have more disposable income by far in general. If that doesn't apply to you personally, you are not ready to date. You are certainly not ready to marry and have a family!

If you are a woman dating a man, you have to be able to pay for your partner on dates, not because you're going to pay more (please do not, see above) but because you don't want to get manipulated into a relationship where you're financially dependent. You're going to end up abused, or at the very least severely underappreciated for the non-monetary contributions you make if you can't at least theoretically support yourself. If you can't do that, you're not ready to date.

If you are in any other situation, for example you're gay, agender, etc., most of the same advice for straight women applies. Abuse is rampant, and the most common reason for stress in a life partnership and divorce is financial difficulty. Be ready to take care of yourself no matter what.

While it's preferable people are independent as a man I think generosity towards a wife is okay. A girlfriend well you aren't actually married.. so despite your selective statistics he owes her nothing... in a marriage yes he should be willing to support her if required and generously. But if she's a girlfriend really she should be independent because there are no guarantees so if he gives her money it's out of pyre generosity not obligation and should be appreciated as such so if she isn't that interested out of character she should decline... you should very entitled... a more balanced approach is better than accepts well if she's a wife of course he has responsibilities and should be willing for love but his contributions shouldn't be dismissed as obligation like that and as for abuse its this myth that all men are abusive if left unchecked... actually usually it's cultural or racial my father, none of the men in my family did that I don't know about yours... all the women depended on then financially but none were shy to stand up for themselves if anything the men were abused abit. So it's about being considerate of everyone, this one foot out the door mentality is toxic, it's not love. Nothing wrong with being independent especially if only a girlfriend even with sex but after marriage if it's a good man you should surely be able to have trust ...it's a pretty dooom and gloom attitude to the world how you see it. And i think inacvurate broadly sure some are but you avoid the undesirables surely.

I don't like entitled people. I assume you are a woman, so maybe stop being entitled and you will find a man who genuinely wants you
