As a woman, for example a very pretty woman. I like if a guy dine me first and treat me well first before sex. So how to meet half way?

Lot of over complication going on here.
If you invite a girl out, pay for the first date out. Don’t argue or worry about money. As such you should be smart what your first dates entail. For me it’s a low key bar hop to 2-3 places. Vibe well at first place, move to second place, as things are escalating physically an emotionally usually by place 2 or 3 we’ve already kissed. If vibe is off, easy to end date at first spot. If vibe is on, then she’s just come with you to 3 places and had a great time. Other thing is, you should be able to tell before you even meet how potentially “on” it is between you two
Occasionally you need to go two dates to hook up but usually it can happen first date (mostly because everywhere she’s gone w you has been a better and better experience so far)
I don’t do dinner stuff unless we’ve hooked up. Mostly because I don’t go out to dinners for even myself. At most it’s let’s split a bottle of wine together.

We all learn from mistakes, especially about money. One time I was at a bar/club and was chatting up this one go who was really interested in me when her friend (probably purposely) bumped into me and spilled her drink. I ended up buying her and her friends new drinks, cost me 50 bucks. First and last time ever doing that
I also went and spent like $80 on a drinks first date where we each had like 4 drinks, only to get ghosted after making out a bit. I'm now much more of a "come over for wine" or "we'll meet up and have one drink" kind of person.
As long as you learn from mistakes like this, there's no need to beat yourself up over it

Have you had many girls refuse to come over and have wine? Also, how’d you properly vet these women before allowing them to see where you live?
[–]-Twyptophan- 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Some wouldn't want to come straight over, so I'd go with the drinks in public. I only really started honing in on game in the past few years so I don't have a crazy amount of experience, but in my short time that's what it's been like. Also probably helped that I was in college.
As for vetting, I lived in an apartment complex so it wasn't as risky as a house. Will be living in a big apartment building soon so there's no way of anyone getting to where I live when I'm not there or knowing which unit I live in before meeting up. I also check for social media/proof that they're a normal person. Some people say they like to call/facetime before but I've never done that. Honestly doing anything where you meet with a stranger is a risk, but you've gotta take some risks in life. Just be smart about it

I’ll never understand this problem. Every time I go out with a girl they insist to pay for me or we split it.
I have never had a problem with being taken advantage of. Only time I pay is if I invite them somewhere that only I like (such as going to an Airshow). Then I’ll invite them and say don’t worry, I’ll pay.
I don’t think I’m some Channing Tatum looking dude either. I think some of you just chase the wrong women

Wonder if you dated me, lol. Every time I go on a date, I always tell the guy im paying for myself. But my male coworkers told me they always pay for the woman, even their current girlfriends, every time, which astounds me.
[–]That_Ad4734 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Well I’m a serious relationship I will always pay, I’m just traditional like that. However, during the dating stage I would never do that, just opens the door to being used.
Honestly, I think as a woman paying for yourself is a good thing. I think it shows independence. I personally believe that using men to pay for everything just gives them the impression that you are dependent, which I don’t think any woman should allow to happen. That’s how you end up with controlling men. Just my opinion

Girls pay for you every time? It's impossible
[–]That_Ad4734 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I don’t know what to tell you man 🤷♂️ maybe I subconsciously pursue women that are like that. But no, they don’t always pay for me, but minimum they always split the check

“If we don’t vibe or she pulls away when I try to touch her then she doesn’t get dinner and the date ends” lmao
[–]ReefLedger 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I don't see what's so funny about this. Why would one waste time and $ on someone that's not vibing with you? Or are you a woman that expects to be pampered?
[–][deleted] 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I don't take new girls on dates that established girls get.
They're lucky to get a latte

I do ice cream as a first date. Low pressure, relatively inexpensive, easy to venue swap out of or even straight back to your place. Not to mention the sugar/Lipid high they get will be associated with you from now on.

Well said. Be it known many women just like to have free meals and be showered with attention for a short amount of time then have ZERO interest in you. The BEST women by the way won't accept dinner or brunch dates because they are generally good people and want to get to know you. Keep the first date or dates simple and inexpensive and you will weed out the diamonds among the weeds.

My female cousin did this when we were all in LA. Hitting up Tinder "Cuz a girl's gotta eat"

Is this actually a problem seen a lot?
Pro tip: You can get the same psychological effect buying dinner originally stemmed from by grabbing sodas or coffees but while you're at it grab some sort of pieced out finger food ( fries, cinnamon bites, something like that) for just yourself, then offer her some.
I'll elaborate in my own post.
[–]nastibass 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Damnit. now I want cinnamon bites

I would never do dinner dates for first dates. Not because of the money, but because they are horrible for seduction. There's not enough opportunity for relaxation, to build comfort and kino, etc.
As you mentioned, physical activity is best. You may end up spending some money - but obviously don't go overboard!

Just go get drinks at a cozy bar or pub or some type of lounge with a more intimate setting.
