It's a manipulative response in hopes you feel bad for them and give them w/e they need. It doesn't even have to be after a date

Many men want to "good deed" their way into getting laid, often called white knighting, some women take advantage of that and extort money.

Don't bother, a neckbeard dreamed up this scenario so he could complain. You don't need to apologise on behalf of it.
If you are interested in me and I don't pay for things, it's discussed at length that I will still pay attention to you if you want, 2

I’m going on date 5 tmrw and wondering if I can ask her to split the dinner bill. Ladies help me out.
SomeDetroitGuy
You all young people are weird about this shit but back in the day you alternated hosting dates. This whole "the guy always pays" is new.
ToasterDent
What, are you like 30? Back in the 1950's the guy always paid.
ArcaneM37
Discuss this BEFORE you go
paklexx
I’m going on a third hangout with someone and honestly we’ve split everything up to this point. Makes more fun w/o oblg or expectation
PrincessWasabi
Make a first date coffee lol
wikidleaf
Could ask and see how she responds and that should tell you if you dodge a bullet.
If there’s a big wage disparity try to adjust your expectations a bit, like one of you pays for dinner and the other pays for dessert.
It’s absolutely fine & fair to want to split expenses at this point…just make sure the actual split is fair, not necessarily 50/50
Wooie
Wtf mate, my Lovey and I went dutch to begin with and now we just rotate who pays every Friday night. Its ok, Dutch is totally fine

Offer to stay in and cook together. It's a money saver and romantic. Offers you a window into her teamwork skills.
Tr4plie
What's your charisma level?
IrishPub
Unless I am planning an actual date, then it's split every time. I also don't date women that won't pay or split bills, as a rule.
DumbShitIsMyTrigger
Text "hey for dinner tomorrow, you mind if we split?". And if she can't, reschedule but keep it lighthearted. Offer something that doesn't -
-cost money as an alternative
I'm a lady btw and I'd much rather have it brought up BEFORE we sit down to dinner. It's practical and polite to give a heads up rather than
spring it after we get there and use it as some sort of test to gauge my reaction
HoneyBunchesOfStoats
I wouldn't have any problem splitting. Some people can be touchy about it, but it's better to know that about them sooner rather than later.
Just ask ahead of time and don't surprise them with it at the restaurant. You could also suggest alternating who pays
1-She hasn’t offered yet, not even to leave the tip? If you like her, have a conversation about this. People come from different backgrounds
2- In some households and cultures, men are always supposed to pay. Maybe that’s how she was raised. But that doesn’t mean you guys can’t
3- go Dutch moving forward. But asking at dinner wouldn’t be right. Ask at another time, like after dinner. Don’t put her on the spot.
IPrefertheNight
Woman here - don’t text in advance! That makes it weird and serious. When the check comes say “want to split it?”
magnificentfurmaster
The day is OK and the sun can be fun- but I live, to see those rays slip away. https://youtu.be/ognBcHjlcJo
youeitherlikeordislike
Also a woman here: completely agree with this! Keep it casual and light; a text beforehand makes it a bigger deal than it is. imo, obviously
ilovedavidbowie
As a lady who prefers dutch, an easy way to do this: ask her to shout the drinks/dessert, you shout dinner and swap approach on 2nd date.
AoEnwyr
If you’ve paid the last 4 times without your date even offering to split, have that conversation before it goes any further.
Decemberscrow
The rule I learned was the one who proposed the date pays until you're a few dates in and work something else out.
hotfezz
4 times?? Paying twice is generous. Believe in yoself king
rachhface
100%. If he pays the first one, I will absolutely get the second one.
Just be kind when you bring it up. Sometimes it’s a point of genuine humiliation for not being able to chip in, not taking advantage :/
MadamPuddifoot
Why would you go on 4 dates of you can't afford to help pay for even 1 of them?
Because being poor isn’t a fair reason to be miserable or alone? Because dates don’t have to cost extra money; I can cook?
... I'm saying why would you go on FOUR days and make the other person pay every time. When I'm broke I don't go out just for a free meal
looks like mostly dudes responding. lady here. this is an individual preference, between you and her. do NOT spring this question in a ¹
sweetcatastrophe
Also a lady but a broke one. While I usually split one a date, springing an unexpected expense on me with no notice would not be chill

wording is everything, but unless someone has stated they'll pay, going out when you can't afford to is no one else's fault.

Totally agree. As previously stated, I typically split or pay outright and don't accept invites when I can't cover it.
text before meeting with her. that looks cheap. discuss it over dinner. suggested wording: "hey, since i've paid the past few times, would ²
you mind getting tonight?" and her reaction will tell you everything you need to know. you may end up paying again, but then you have the ³
information you need to proceed with. ALSO- if this is someone you'd like a long-term relationship with, and you expect equal financial ⁴
contribution from her, i'd HIGHLY suggest asking her to pay for the night in full. offer to pick up the TIP. you paying 100% four times ⁵
Feralkyn
(As another woman) I agree with the first part--for any couple--but I wouldn't spring it over dinner, she might not be ready to pay if he's
done the last *four.* I'd bring it up for a potential future date--"do you wanna go out again, maybe split the bill somewhere" and see.
Personally I think it's odd she isn't offering, though, already.
