Going on first date? Should i let the guy pay?

Don't go on a date if you can't afford it. It's nice when a guy offers to pay but it shouldn't be an expectation.

I already said yes to the date. I don't think he'd like me backing out

Then what's your plan if he doesn't offer to pay for you?

You should reschedule for after you next get paid.

Suggest you go somewhere cheaper so if need be, you can pay.

You’ll look incredibly bad if it comes to paying, he suggests splitting and you can’t actually afford it. Shows you assumed he’s paying for the entire date.

That's my expectation though...i really can't afford it

Tell him you're skint

I like him very much tbh...but i haven't eaten anywhere nice in months . I don't wanna go to a cheap place .i hope he takes me somewhere fancy

To clarify: you have no money, you want him to take you "somewhere fancy", and you expect that he'll pay (and have no plan B given your unwillingness/inability to pay your own share)?

Are you looking for a free meal or to get to know the guy?

To know him of course. I like him he's special to my hea6

Maybe suggest going somewhere that’s actually affordable ? Maybe even Nando’s or something lol

it depends, did he ask you out on the date or did you?

I think whoever asked the other out on a date should pay for it.

subway is cheaper
