Going Dutch

When the word "dutch" is being mentioned, we would either think the "dutch-lady" brand or paying for our share of the bill.
But some women, like me for instance, go out on dates fully expecting our dates would foot the bill and personally send us home.
I prefer not to carry too much cash around with me. So, i just carry a few loose change, tissue, my debit card, my Identification Card and my lipstick in my small handbag. So, robbers/snatch-thieves/pickpockets, please take note :
I DO NOT HAVE CASH IN MY HANDBAG. STAY AWAY FROM ME, ESPECIALLY WHEN I JUST GOT DUMPED ON MY DATE.
BEWARE OF THE BITCH IN ME.
I have dated men, who admitted to me, that they are broke and asked me to foot the bill instead.
I'm fine with paying for dinner or taxi fare or movie tickets, especially if I've been seeing the guy for quite some time and we took turns paying on our dates. For example, if he's paying for dinner, I pay for movie tickets, and if he's driving, we split up and share the petrol bill.
But if I've been taken for granted and was asked to foot the bill on every single date, I must say, that chimpanzee must be a total cheapskate.
You don't have to have a net worth of $500,000, drive a Lexus, owns a Condo, or be a plastic surgeon in order to date me.
I'm still the girl next-door, live a simple life and yes, I'm financially independent.
Just don't use me to your advantage and treat me like your Financer.
If you really have no money, don't ask me out.
Stay at home.
I would ask you out personally IF I am interested in you and I'd foot the bill and perhaps even buy you a car if you can satisfy me in bed.
So, boys.. Please be honest.
If you are really short on cash while we are out on a date, (and sincerely care for me) let's go Dutch, ok.

Ahem... BT... The worst I have done on a date was going dutch! Getting the lady to pay... ermm.. if only u r great buddies.. Even then I have never let my lady buddies pay the bills .. not even my lady insurance agent!

I agree if the guy got no money, better stay at home. Now becomming a toy boy... ermm that is different! Sometimes I wonder why some hunk wants to become a toy boy?

Dade ghost,

blue turtle? hehe.. It makes ,e sound like an endangered species.. :p

You are such a gentleman! I wish all men think like that.. But then again, some men wants women to be "equal" to them perhaps because the women they are dating have higher income.

Lol - I've been out with quite a few of em here. Unfortunately unlike Asia where most if not all men (in my humble opinion due to my lack of dating ;-)) pay for their women, Oz men are jz not as gentlemanly! Shocking - but the truth nevertless.

Thankfully have met someone who is a sweetie - but then again, he aint Australian..lol.

I miss dating Asian men - but the ones I've met here are all try hards anyway!

drfrappucino,

:) I'll buy you a Lexus, and you drive. How's that?

daredevil8,

$500K is alot to 90% Singaporeans here.

Well, in this case, I'll just pay for everything. I'm very generous.

Really.

mirebella,

I don't like to date Oz men.

It's not easy to find a nice decent (un-malay) Malay here AND in KL. Where have all the good guys go?
