I would never let a guy pay for me all the time. They are going to think they get sex or something or that they should "get some" just because they paid, or that I would have to be extra nice to them just before they paid. I am not a gold digger, I can provide for myself just fine. I don't need a guy to buy ANYTHING for me.
My ex used to be mad at me because of this. He was embarasse because a long time ago, I insisted for paying for my own ticket at the movie theater, and he was embarrassed because I did it in front of the cashier. I don't know wtf he needs to be embarassed about. Fuck, at least I'm independent, if he wants to be with a fucken gold digger, fine whatever! This happened years ago, and he still talks about it to this day!!! I must have insulted his manhood or something, but get over it!!
Trust me, if you pay, the guy might think he's entitled to sex or something, they think they are all that just because they paid. Money is power. If I'm with a guy, it's to have a good time, I don't expect them to pay for me, I wouldn't want them too. I don't need a man to pay for anything for me, I can pay for myself.
