First dates: How Much Should You Spend?

[Chicity]

What's a responsible $$$ amount should you spend on your first date?

Who decides where to go to first?

 

[DOS_patos]

always start off low. too high and she will expect it all the time.

i say about $100

and the decision would be mutual.

 

[1/2]

spend what you want, shit

it would highly depend on if I got it, and how im feeling about this person

i might have a plan to play it cool and she shows up in a outfit that says "go ahead and order the bottle"

:ualreadyknow:

I’m not breaking $100 ideally, but if she orders enough to push it that high I appreciate the opportunity to see that red flag early on.

 

[Ghost313]

No more than 100 as bro’s have said. Not stingy, but not committed either at that point.

 

[Hater Hearst Helmsley]

$100-$120

I'm selfish in the sense that even tho WE are on a date, I'm there to enjoy myself

I find that I live in opulence when it comes to going out, which is why I don't go out often. I wanna eat, drink, and be merry. Regardless the cost

If I end up spending say $200 but the night was dope af for both of us then it's a win win. If I spend $200 and she dont dont enjoy herself....ehhh, I ain't mad in the least. Now if I spend $200 and I'm still not feeling the vibe I'm a be salty but chalk it up to being an L kinda night

Ultimately tho, no price or destination set really. As long as we can eat and conversate, we good

for me, if i offer you another round of drinks, that's one thing. I'm fully prepared to pay for whatever at that point, but if you just keep calling Garcon over there talking about "keep it filled", you not getting a call back from me.

I know this site is a certain age group but honestly 20-25 y/o’s these days don’t really have the expectation to be wined and dined like y’all are talking about on a first date. That’s for later on if later on comes. All my recent first dates have been “going out for drinks,” and light on the food.

This. Pretty much word for word. I don't mind spending money on a date because I'm gonna enjoy MYSELF. Hopefully you enjoy yourself too...but I'm gonna enjoy myself. I'ma have a good meal. Enjoy doing whatever activity I'm doing. Drink as much of whatever it is I want. You're welcome to enjoy all those things with me while we get to know each other. But I don't really even look at it as I'm taking YOU out.

If that makes sense.

Man I’m tryna have fun on the first date or any date. I ain’t tryna be cautious to not spend over $100. I ain’t about to be spending a good $500 but if I came off $200 and had a bomb ass time, then what’s the problem?!
