So I’ve had quite abit of experience dating. When I was younger, I would do the whole “let me take care of it” in front of the girl when the bill comes which in my head would earn her respect. Sometimes it would look like insecurity and what happened after the date would usually vary… sometimes I’d get laid and sometimes the girl would be like “okay thanks for dinner” and just hug me and make her way home. I then tried the whole “let’s go halves” which was alright and would also have different responses after the date. What I’ve recently been trying is a whole new thing that has me blown away with the results. So what I do is if I see attraction having been built up over dinner, I would take care of the bill without her even knowing. Either go to the toilet and pay for it on the way or tell her to go to the toilet and handle the cheque. When it comes time to leave, just get up, take her hand and leave. The girl is always in awe and all the times I’ve done it I’ve gotten action after because they feel like they’re with someone who knows what he’s doing rather than just going with the flow. Try it out and see!
