I usually subsidize but don't cover the entire check. Like my portion plus tip and an extra 20-40 to help out.

Subsidizing is always a bad idea, you might as well pay the entire thing and get credit for it (whatever it is worth).

Women know how to play the percentage game for their own benefit.

If you pay 95% of her meal and she pays 5%, she will, in her mind think, rationalize that she paid for her meal (and blank out the part where you paid for 95% of it) and then she will come to internet boards to complain about men and how they make her pay for her own meals (when she paid only 5% of her own meal and none of yours).

Now a woman might still find a reason to complain about this and say that your conversation was boring, you did not regale her enough, you were not funny... so the best thing is to not even bother to please her and to never simp. Do what you think you should do and move on. That is what a real man does. No waiting for her approval.

I do not think that the consensus on this thread agrees with OP. Now I am curious.

Just having a conversation about it boo. Most men I've known would have covered it.
If I was dating your friend I definitely would've paid for you just to score points with your friend and possibly you if things didn't work out. If I was married to your friend maybe not.

I am happy to pay for a woman who is not my SO if they don't subscribe to the ideologies of "boss babe" "girl power" "independent woman who don't need no man" BS. If you choose to subscribe to those false narratives, then you should be perfectly capable of buying whatever you want for yourself.

If my wife and I went out and took one of her friends along on a social outing and we opened a tab, we'd just pay it. No big deal. Sort of like if we had friends over to the house and provided the drinks.

After reading the other thread about the boyfriend discussing a threesome, it's clearly a troll.

If he's footing a portion of the bill for dinner and drinks, why shouldn't he expect a threesome?

Not so fast, my friend.
A woman has the amazing ability to be a helpless victim or a girl-boss based on the situation and turn it to her advantage. Anyone with a wife or a girl friend for a decent amount of time has experienced this.
Don't be fooled.

Yeah pretty much. It's unbecoming for a man to ask a woman to chip in.


It's also unbecoming not to blow him afterwards for paying

I saw a really funny Reel about being in the friend zone awhile back. Can't find that one again but it seems relevant to this thread.

I'm beyond the "paying for a woman that isn't going to slob my knob" phase of life. Be thankful he covered any of your tab.

Nice troll, by the way.

I've never had one of my friends' husbands or boyfriends ask me to reimburse him for the tab after the weekend. I mentioned to him, id pay for my part but he kept buying rounds even when I didn't ask. I find it to be really unsexy and if it were my significant other, I'd get icks. Thoughts?
So ...

You did not buy the Whole Life Policy?

In 2024, simps are called "gentlemen" by today's women.

Bottom line: When you are a lady, only then can you expect a gentleman. Most women today are not ladies.

In her defense, maybe she made a baby before the alcoholism began. Timing could be iffy.

Well sorry to hear about your situation bobcat. I hope you find a good man. But keep in mind that if you want a real man, you need to be a real woman. A real woman is feminine. Many women today try to dazzle men with their job titles and edu degrees. No man about those. The only ones that do want to sit at home and mooch off of you. Choose wisely.

This is a fact. My wife is a lady and I am gentleman for her. But way too many women are not ladies and should not be treated in that classic way.
