You're living in a different time my friend. If you so much as mention AA/Dutch/splitting the bill in any manner you will be dropped immediately because:
1. you're a cheapskate
2. by not paying, that means you're not interested (my female friend said this during discussions and my other females friends seemed to agree)
3. clearly you'll never be a provider if you can't even pay for a date
4. girls spend so much to look good that you should/owe it to them to be paying the date (serious actual line of thinking some have)
This 100% - I personally know girls exactly like this. Some are even worse.
Interestingly, I think you'd be surprised as to the root cause of this behaviour and mindset. Speaking from personal experience, having dated mostly fobs and just one CBC girl in the past, it's interesting how progressive and open minded most fobs are, in contrast with shockingly traditional CBC girls.
Of course I can only speak for myself, but out of all the fobs I've dated - from ESL chicks to those who have been here since high school, not one of them have ever had any expectation for guys to pay for their everything. I think for fob girls, that kind of mindset is mostly limited to girls with princess syndrome.
The only CBC girl I dated had extremely conservative, traditional Chinese parents who left mainland China in the early 80s. Their way of thinking was really strange, and my theory is that it was passed along to their daughter. Thus, it was like I was dating some CCP mindset super China girl who spoke fluent English without any accent lol.
So my theory is that CBC kids were raised by parents who left Asia in the 70s/80s/90s, before things were "modernized" - their way of thinking is stuck in the olden days, which is why CBC guys and gals often have fucked up ways of thinking that seem out of touch with today's society. I've often heard fob parents say 什麼時代了, which literally translates to "what era is this?" and roughly translates to "get with the times" or "that's so outdated". This makes me think that the vast majority of fobs or Asians in China/HK/Taiwan have moved on from some traditional ways of thinking due to convenience or lack of time from work culture. Might be wrong but curious as to what you guys think of this?
One girl I know said that she was raised by her grandparents, and because her grandpa provided for her grandma and she never had to work/pay for anything, she expects her future man to do the same. It's sad that she doesn't realize that things are pretty different compared to what they were a century ago

That goes back to girls saying every single one of them is a 10. I'm a 10, she's a 10, we're ALL 10s! With a seriousness you could not possibly comprehend...
If you're all 10s, then NO ONE is a 10. It holds no meaning at all, there is no merit to the quantification if everyone is the same. And yet, they'll still argue you're wrong and men just don't get it. This can also relate to them sabotaging each other with bad advice because if you make the ugly ones behave this way, it makes the prettier ones more appealing by default.
I saw this IG clip.. guys are being hit with the 29 trauma...
Girls who are actually 2 THINKS they are 9. They go thru this relationship causing pain / post trauma to the guy and the guy is cursed.
I feel that's what reality check is needed for Van girls.

This just cant be a thing. Its not possible to be THAT blind / retarded.
Ive seen the videos you guys talk about.
I think its women just trolling, like they have an inside club, where they all know to do this, just to mess with males.
Fast forward a few years since all these "im a 10" videos came out, i had a few long term friends at my place for board games.
Spoiler!
god i hope they have no idea im on this forum or im done for lol
Woman A: late 20s, what most would consider a........ 5......
Woman B: mid 30s, what most would consider a 7 or 8
Woman C: mid 20s, what most would condider a 6 or 7
Anyways somehow the discussion went from rating movie models to "well what would you rate yourself".
Im like oh fuck PLEASE dont ask ME what i think you are... They didnt, and if they did "no comment" would be my reply
Woman A: "9 without makeup, 10 with"
Woman B: "probably a 8, 9 on a good day"
Woman C: "hmmmmmmmmm, 9 for sure, if in a good mood 10 because that brings out the best of me"
It happened right infront of my own eyes, i dont know the last time i was THIS dumbfounded
God speed, SpoonEK9, Gerbs, MikeMHG

I wonder if this is why I do significantly better in Asia, than I do here. On one of my dates in Korea, a girl insisted on paying because I spent so much of my time taking care of her (this is an as you should thing that I agree with), and idk if it was so that there wouldn't be a second date, but man... her eye contact game and the tension.. fml take me back to Korea hahah

Go to dates with basically what amounts to an Excel spreadsheet to play pretend financial planner when they don't even have to pay for their car or gas or insurance etc.
This. The girl I went out with recently had a similar family upbringing with me - parents rented their whole lives (or are still renting) so I shockingly didn't encounter the usual, which is the above.

Also, on the opposite spectrum if a girl pays for the entire date (other than BIC's scenario, it seems) it usually means they don't want to see you again. This is them trying to walk away with a clean conscience because they no longer owe you anything from previous dates you likely paid for. Even this though, is rare because many don't feel like they owe you a damn thing to begin with.
In my scenario, she doesn't do lashes (only glued on lashed) and doesn't get her nails or hair done. She was telling me how her coworkers (nurses) all pay at least $1000/mo to get all of those things done on a MONTHLY basis. I think leave in conditioner and other treatments is like $700 or smt. Wack.
She did ask me why men don't like it / get offended when she offers to pay on the date. Asked if it was ego. I didn't really answer, but I forgot that men are just conditioned to pay, it's not even a why thing it's a norm thing.
She said she wanted to pay cause I went to go pick her up, then drive us to Bellingham for our date, and gas is expensive. Sure, I guess. I offered to split dinner, because dinner was gonna be relatively expensive (well eating out in general is expensive, and it was gonna be more than PandaEx) but she insisted on paying.

Being in this role and being in Korea while in this role. 100% agree. I'm always looking my absolute best (as best as I can be) - even got a perm for an event (who am I? a chick??) and I'm sure my role/status/social network all added points to attractiveness.

It happened right infront of my own eyes, i dont know the last time i was THIS dumbfounded
I know friends that date within their friends group. It kinda strange to me that they play musical chairs with each other.
Theres a correct term for this, bolded below
I find it funny, and i only hear this kind of stuff going on in chinese groups of friends
My old company, we had a 30ish chinese guy (white washed/born here), and there was a bunch of messy stuff going on in their friends group
Best example was like 14 of them went on a whistler ski trip or something, but his ex was there, AND he was actively chatting up another girl in the group.
By the middle of the trip he was making out with the "new" girl, and then his other male friend overheard his ex being upset that she found out about his new toy and told him. WHAT DO YOU EXPECT, WOMAN?
That is just straight up comedy. Dont remember how long who dated who or whatever details, but oh yeah, theres a bunch of eskimo brother stuff going in there.
By this point im sure he is onto #3 or #4 girl of his friend group, dude was build like Gerbs, pussy lined up around the corner
Actually, you know what, to be fair, ive had some "messy" stuff in my life too, so i shouldent be talking lol.
My favorite example was when i stopped seeing a chick, the chick wanted to bang my friends to get on my nerve, so her and my closest friend did some base 1 shit.
My closest friend never told me.
Somehow i ended up porking her a year later and she told me about what they did.
I never confronted my buddy about it. (Salivating for the perfect moment)
About a year later same buddy was over at my place, and the conversation on his end went to: something along the lines of "i had this asshole friend at work that tried to bang my ex".
To which i said "oh yeah dude thats SUPER shady, kinda like that time you and ________ did stuff behind my back and never told me, yeah dude".
My friend just froze and started to turn red from embarrassment, it was hilarious, followed by puckering his lips with a "oh crap" look.
We hugged it out, i didnt care, was just funny more than anything.
That same chick did a photoshoot in the lake with my other close friend (friend being the photographer). (Which he asked me about before even going)
I go to my buddies place a week later, and he says: "so that was an odd shoot, i think she was trying to fuck me. After we finished the photos, she asked me if she could come over to "use my shower and clean up", to which i didnt think twice, and said no to. Then she tried again when we were walking back to our cars in a different format, i didnt think anything of it at the time, but by the time i was driving home........"
Gold, absolute gold.
I got some other dark moments with the trio of 10s i mentioned in my previous post, but those you can ask me about in person only lol.
I should write a book on the stupidity of my life
