Europeans: Who Pays on a Date? #shorts

View Comments

• In southern Italy everyone wants to pay the bill, but it's too late 😑🤌

  • I have fought so many times over it, it's crazy... and even if I split I always do evenly even if I bought less than the other

  • Also in North and Center Italy 😂
    When I invite my friends to lunch out for like my birthday I have to literally launch myself on the bill!

  • My cousins boyfriend who is now her husband would always pay for me too because I'm a girl lol. And when their friends who are couples came with us, each boyfriend would take turns paying at each place we went and argue with each other cause they wanted to pay lol

  • In Sicily*

• I am from croatia and paing bill in whole region is must for males. Slovenia bosnia croatia serbia ...-male would reather die than let female pay bill. I my self feel weird by thought of spliting bill with female.

  • thats how it should be

  • @@larrytowne7536 If you want to live in the past, sure. Times are changing thankfully

  • Thats great. I love masculine men who takes pride in being a man, a provider and protector

  • I'm Croatian and that's a lie lol. As a 28 year old woman I paid for dates as often as the guys. At least it's like this in Zagreb. Maybe in smaller towns and villages it's different, but here in Zagreb women are not leeches, we work, we make money, and we sure as hell can pay for the dates, especially if we invite the guy out. Usually I pay for one date, he pays for the next etc. I also love that both of us work and both of us cook and clean at home. All chores are split 50/50, as it should be. As a woman I want equal opportunities in life, and I want to be treated as an equal to men, so I don't need them to pay for me.

  • @@maryfiero8122 every healty woman does. Man is provideing with money because he cant give what woman can give. Woman gives morale suport, hope and etc

    Splitting the check in the first date is a big W, good that is the norm is Spain

• I wanted to hear more from Ireland 😊

  • There is more in the full video 😊

  • Yeah....I don't think she is from Italy like it says in the video lol

  • ​@@DatingBeyondBordersWhy there is even a question about who pays for what a person consume? If you buy something at the supermarket, there is a question about who will pay for it?🤨🤨🤨

• In Poland guys are gentleman mostly. I never had to pay because for them was offended even when i asked. For them real man paying. Not my words but i can see that for them its obvious

  • In Poland traditionalism is pushed on both men and women

    The reason why men are reluctant in the west is because most men know, women expect to be treated as a modern women, which is someone who doesn’t adhere to old traditional roles of each sex, a man paying for the women could be an example of that traditional role

    However people, often times women, do want men in some ways to act traditional….but you see, not completely traditional. For example, controlling your wife in the sense of where she can go, or if she can drive, this used to be the role of the man to control. Now in the west this is obsolete

    So men see these traditions that only benefited men, as something society considers obsolete, so in a man’s mind, all traditions by logic would be obsolete, such as paying for a women, especially in a world where she’s given an avenue at a young age to provide for herself. And that’s the problem, men and women aren’t on the same page. People want to pick and choose what traditions they want to keep, which typically is dependant on what solely benefits themselves. Men paying for women benefits nobody but women. Men not allowing women to leave the house or drives benefits nobody but men.

    Poland, isn’t in this weird middle point where you have a big mish mash of people picking and choosing which traditions they like and don’t like and expect their partner to pursue

  • Here in Brazil it will often be perceived as sexism, if we try to pay alone when on a date with an independent girl. It's tricky. They can even understand we are trying to "buy" them. But in the past it was like you said.

• Being straight sounds exhausting

  • It's the same with same sex couples though

  • Huh? Are you bashing heterosexual people? Not cool. You know you wouldn't like it if that's done to you.

  • It is for a straight guy

• Why should i pay for the first date? Why should the man pay in the first place?

  • We inherited it from the past when women didn't have any belongings, so the men must pay for everything.

    Women keep that habit because it's convenient for them, and men cannot get rid of it because since their childhood it's been rammed into their thoughts that that's make them a man, and which boy wouldn't want to be a man?

    It's as stupid as moustache makes a man, or disobedient wives should be beaten up by their husbands, or taking care of children isn't for men, or men must earn more than the women, etc., etc., etc. (sadly, I could go for quite a long time).
    But unfortunally it takes more time in some culturally less developed regions to get rid of it. Or ever... :-(

  • Well if you ask her out , you should pay If you don’t want to , then stay home

  • Why there is even a question about who pays for what a person consume? If you buy something at the supermarket, there is a question about who will pay for it?🤨🤨🤨

  • ​@@Limpi43agree with everything but not with not beating a disobedient female

• Sounds exactly like in the US. If this is something I want to invest in, I'll pay. If I'm not feeling it, then neither is she, and we'll split.

  • It sounds like an implicit message to the other person, as in "let's share the bill" = "well, we definitely won't be seeing each other again".

• I'm Dutch, dated a lot of girls and guys, and I'm always the one paying because I'm the one who has asked the other out.

  • That's a pretty fair way to go about it.

  • Girls don't ask out guys on dates
