"It's not that women purposely don't want to pay, it's that they can't find the timing. Even if I want to pay, it becomes a dispute when the other party offers to pay instead. I think it's rude to keep pushing back so sometimes women don't pay out of respect."
1. [+237, -26] I think the respectful way to handle this in our generation is to just take turns paying for dates without regard to whether you're a man or woman. Be like, "Since you paid last time, I'll handle it this time" ㅋㅋ
2. [+106, -16] Whoever offered the date should also say whether they want to go dutch or not
3. [+76, -14] What she's trying to say is that it's rude for the woman to keep pushing back and offering to pay when the man already offered to pay. The debate isn't about whether the man should always pay or not. And nowadays, most people take turns, like if the man bought dinner, the woman will buy coffee. Yeah it's not always a straight split down the middle but I at least try to take turns... Dating is all about finding what works for you.
4. [+16, -19] I wonder why women always think it's cool of the man to pay while they're in the bathroom?
5. [+9, -1] I think dates should start off by just deciding who pays first. No woman in real life is going to throw a fit over it. Sure dramas and stories on Pann like to dramatize stories of how women turned down a date for being short or not buying dinner but look around you, plenty of men shorter than 180 are all dating or married. Why bother dating someone if they're mad you didn't buy them a meal? What's the point in hoping for a relationship with someone like that?

1. [+332, -144] Men, let's take her advice to heart and learn from it. See? Like she said, it's not that women don't want to pay, it's that they haven't found the timing to do it. So let's all take a step back from the cash register and give them the chance... (sarcastic comment on how women are stereotyped to step back from the cash register when it's time to pay on dates)
2. [+324, -39] Whenever a man buys, I offer to buy next. It's always been comfier for me since I hate feeling like I got a free meal when I make my own money and can buy too. It's wrong to expect the man to pay every time when dinners and coffees add up... The expenses are crazy even when you take turns paying ㅠㅠ
3. [+271, -134] So she's saying it's not that women don't want to pay, it's that it's timing ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ why is there timing in that? Okay, so by her logic, men can just finish eating and go to the bathroom too, right?
4. [+31, -3] But don't most women want to pay and get out of there if she's on a bad date? Who would actually try so hard to get out of paying ㅋㅋ Most women are usually like "thank you, I'll buy next time!" When women are insistent on paying no matter how many times the man offered to pay, it's 70-80% because she doesn't want to see him again.
5. [+30, -5] If a woman pays on a blind date, it's because she doesn't want to see him again ㅋㅋ
6. [+29, -6] If you're going to stress over having to pay on a date, just don't go on dates... dating is for people who are financially able to
7. [+27, -24] "timing" ㅋㅋㅋ Anyone who's worked at a restaurant before would know what I'm talking about ㅋㅋㅋ when couples are done eating and it's time to pay, there are certain actions that women always do ㅋㅋㅋ
- They step back from the cash register and act like they're just lost in thought ㅋㅋㅋ
- Acting like they got a Katalk and pretending to type
- They're off to the bathroom
- Taking their sweet time opening their bag, taking forever putting on their jacket ㅋㅋㅋ take as long as they can and the man's already at the register paying for everything
8. [+24, -9] No, there are a lot of women who purposely don't pay
9. [+21, -4] If a woman in our country ever pays first, it's because she doesn't like him
10. [+16, -9] Why can't women just admit that they don't like paying, why do they come up with all these excuses ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ just be honest and say you liked it better back in the older generation when it was expected for the man to pay
