    I am dutch and I always offer to pay the next time. It's a way of saying I want a second date. Also shows that you're willing to take care of him too!

      Nice! I figured that it's rather a standard approach here in The Netherlands :)

      She doesn’t come off as a feminist to me. She’s likely a traditionalist.

    Gently reminder is always better to be on the same page.. nothing wrong with that. No one should feel a burden & act with mutual partnership

    Well if you don't split. That just shows him that your time is more valuable then his. You want an equal relationship or?

    Hm. I’ve never said that. Don’t know any friends who do. Then again these days lady’s “date” just to get food. How about that for romance?

    It's normal for both to have a job with a similar salary. It should go withput saying that you're splitting the cost of your relationship. Maybe they feel the need to mention because they're on a date with a foreigner. However, whenever I'd go on a date with a foreign girl it always went without saying that we'd pay for ourselves.

    • @theselfishcodependent
      @theselfishcodependent  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I don't think that in this multi-dimensional and -cultural world we live in, there should be any 'normal' or 'without saying'. What's normal for you might be far from normal for other people. I'm glad to hear though that you tend to pick dates that see things eye-to-eye with you. That's the most importnat. :)

    • @Pietje900
      @Pietje900 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      @theselfishcodependent well what is normal is determined by the majority within a society, and therefore it's normal in the dutch society for a woman to have a regular job. I've dated women making slighty less than me and women making slightly more than me, and if your income is similar you should both equally invest in your relationship in my opinion, and I'm assuming that opinion is also pretty normal since I've never encountered someone who thought differently.

    Lol rather than going back and forth why not just always split? Heck we even invented an app for such occasions 😂 Tikkie

    I think it's rude if a guy thinks he has 'to take care of me'. I'm not a child, I'm an adult. So to me it feels like he's just settling a second date and recognising the fact that I'm his equal and can pay for a date.

      @Literallyarealhuman ปีที่แล้ว +9

      I’ve personally never felt equal in this world to men so if he will pay I will let him gladly. He is paid more and I am more expensive. Those r facts. I won’t let toxic feminism make me pay lol

    Don't come to the Netherlands for the romantic.
    Instead you get honesty, transparancy and no clean
    appearance.
