Bars

I went tot he bar last night with a couple of girl friends and basically dropped 50 bucks. Im not complaining because i wasnt the only guy buying drinks all night, but the girls walked away, maybe dropping $10, and never offering to even buy rounds once. Now, i know its the guys responsiblity to pay for most of the drinks throughout the night, but shouldnt the girls at least offer, espeically when you consider them friends?

Also, should a girl at least speak to you after you buy them a round? (im not saying this is the case for me, but my friend last night bought a round for a girl and she didnt even say thank you)

When I go out with my friends I usually buy just as much as everyone else, unless I'm done. But, when strangers offer to buy drinks, i usually take the drink and go on my way...

Eh, if it's a girlfriend, then you should buy all the drinks, but if they are just friends, and that's the way you want it to stay, the most you should do is buy a round of shots and maybe a drink for them, but you aren't "supposed" to buy all their rounds. Get out of that habit IMMEDIATELY!

Yea, listen to the drunkard, he knows what he is talking about.

Hey, man, it's a brutal age to be a dude. Either you're not treating them as equals or you're not being a gentleman. Of course, when it comes to footing the bill, they'd rather you be a gentleman.

I've about had it with chivalry.

HERE HERE!! Looking back on it, my ex-gf was a TOTAL mooch. wtf!!

I like how girls get everything free. Weed, booze, rides, gifts....

You should add pregnancy, periods, and menopause to that list.

I bought my own weed every now and then. And if I go out with Kaneda, I easily drop $200...but the last two nights I went out I spent $9, cover charge and went home completely shit faced, the other I spent $15, on food for me and my friend afterwards- we got in free

First off, i didnt buy all the rounds. I brought two of maybe seven. I was just saying that it basically sucks to be a guy at a bar. I would have no problem if i was buying shit for a girlfriend because i know down the line she would pay me back with interest, but for regular friends, i would expect them to at least be kind enough to offer to help me out. Women just get everything for free this day and age and thats why when i find a girl who even offers to help me out, ill marry her.

So don't buy their drinks, what's so hard about that?

You say they're getting everything for free and there's something wrong with that, but YOU'RE the one buying them everything, that's why they're getting everything for free. You can't do it willingly and then complain about it :P

True, my friends and I were talking about all the random guys that try/do buy us drinks...one friend felt guilty, the other and I didn't. Reason being, they're trying to buy us drinks, we're not like "hey, wanna buy me a drink?"

Yeah but if a guy spends like $3 on you, you should at least give him the time of day. It's just plain rude if you don't. Fuck man, when I hit 21 I'm never going to buy a girl a drink unless it's a girlfriend or close friend. Bitches I don't know: you buy ME a drink and then maybe I'll listen to what you have to say.

haha. Well when we went out the guys were inviting us to VIP...so when we went up to the first set of guys we talked with them for a while...and the guy who was paying for everything had a gf and there were two other guys. Well the music got quiet in the middle of him saying "if we get them drunk enough, they might go home with us"...hahahaha, we took another drink and left. Then we were invited to a different area and we danced on the speakers blah blah blah, and those guys got us some bublies and we talked with them for a while also...then there was one other guy, and we talked to him for a few mins, then decided to dance...that's when he just got us drinks. So its not like we were "hey, you, thanks see ya"...we talked to them each for a significant amount of time...for a club scene. Oh, and the drinks at that particular place were $10 ea...not $3

You should add pregnancy, periods, and menopause to that list.

I'm not saying it's right for girls to get free shit just because they are girls.

If a girl is asking for or expecting free shit, she is in the wrong.

If a guy is just giving a girl free shit and she's taking it, she's not doing anything wrong.

I guess it's just a matter of etiquette and guys generally expect some form of reciprocation like what klo said. I'm not saying that girls should blow guys for buying them drinks but a "Thank you" really would not degrade them.

Of course...ya know "thanks it was nice talkin' to ya, have a good night..."

Yeah we weren't saying that you in particular do that, but Gruesome's women did. Poor dude. lol
