If I'm not mistaken...wine is still on the menu at Chuck E. Cheese. Perhaps he ought to take her there next time. But then maybe she'll ask for too many tokens or something else...

lol lol lol I totally forgot about that. They do have wine as Chuck E. Cheese. He and I have class together, and I won't see him until next semester, but I'll mention it to him when I do.

I'll only go out with a guy if I'm at 1st physically attracted to him, but if during the date, I start to see that he's not my type, then I'll insist that we go dutch. He can pay for his, and I'll pay for mine.

I once went out with a guy and this very thing happened. He tried to insist on paying, but I told him no, that I would pay for my own meal, because I didn't want him to get the wrong impression. I told him I didn't see a romantic connection here. When I told him that, I could see he was disappointed, and then he stopped insisting on paying. He paid for his meal and I paid for mine. That was the last time I heard from him.

If I really like a guy, then I'll let him pay. I just think it's so not cool to accept a free meal or free gifts from someone you don't even like.

Expensive is all relative. Some people think $6 - $8 for a glass of wine is expensive. In most restaurants, that is the cheapest glass of wine. As one of the posters have said, the glass could be $50, which IS expensive in my book.

When I was in college, we would get a "bucket" of beer for $5 at a campus bar. A bucket is typically what? Maybe 2 gallons. What do you pay now for a bottle of beer in a restaurant? At least that.

If the guy is in college his idea of expensive could be for a glass of Boone's Farm, Thunderbird or MD 20/20 (aka Mad-Dog).

What's in your wallet?

I can't remember paying less than that. Usually a bottle will cover 3 glasses, and there is a better selection.
