Ladies and gentlemen, dating in 2017 is like no other era of dating. We have social media to thank for that. For those of us who were born before 1992. I feel as though we are the last of a dying breed. Now and days, young folk don't remotely fathom old fashioned protocol. We know what it was like to not have wifi, caller ID, Google, and even watching TV after 8pm. Kids now learn how to work an iPad at the mere age of 2 when all I wanted was a Flintstones push pop. We are now all consumed in a digital world that offers short lived realities with distant companions. Dating itself is a tough thing to do. For one, I can't have dinner with someone without their phone accompanying us. Half the guys who ask me out can't event afford a full course meal. I don't ask for much but if you can't afford it then don't ask me out...simple much? However the question has been floating around about who should pay the tab while out on a date. I believe that while we are just courting, the man should be the one to pay. Now before you guys start bashing me, understand that it's all situational. If we're going to dinner and a movie then yes, I expect you to cover everything. If we go to shoot some pool after our first date, then I as the female wouldn't mind paying for a couple of games....situational. Honestly, until we are officially together don't expect me to pick up the whole tab. I'd do that for someone I claim to be my man as a treat to him for being a great guy...situational. That's my intake on who should pick up the check. If I go out with you and you don't have enough money for the check then you better check for the door because I'd be out. So tell me what you think about this...Who should pick up the check?
