Should a Guy Pay on the First Date?
It’s 2009 and the dating game has changed quite a bit. Not only is it a common occurrence for a girl to ask a guy out on a date (although it’s still not quite as common), it is also becoming more and more acceptable for dates to go “dutch” and split the cost of the outing.
Does it Matter Who Does the Inviting?
Absolutely, yes it does matter. If the guy asks the girl out he should absolutely pay. You know what he’s going to expect at the end of it anyway, if he’s smart he’ll pay and increase his chances of getting laid at the end.
The girl should by no means feel like she has to put out, of course. Girls should never forget that, in the end, they’re the deciding factor in whether or not the deal gets sealed.
Is It Better For Both Sexes to Split the Bill?
By paying at least part of the bill it gives women more power and allows them to be more assertive. “… it makes [women] an equal partner,” says etiquette expert and Essential Manners for Couples author Peter Post in an article on Huffington Post.
At the end of the date if it doesn’t work out then neither party feels too invested and is more apt to give an honest appraisal of the date at the end.
What do you think - is it still up to the guy to pay on the first date?

Is Chatting Online Considered Cheating?
When it comes to relationships it can be hard to find balance between personal freedom and considering the needs of your partner. Finding balance between the two is often tested in the modern world of digital technology, where contact with the entire world is available at the click of a mouse.
The Wall Street Journal reports that email is dead, that Facebook and Twitter have officially taken its place. If this is true it may not be a good sign for relationships. A study, conducted by the CyberPsychology and Behavior Journal, reports that the amount of time spent on Facebook directly causes an increase in jealous feelings among partners.
So, if Facebook is the new email and it’s causing more problems in relationships than existed before, are relationships bound to fail, or do the benefits of insta-communication provide other benefits to relationship that outweigh the negatives?
And, is chatting online really considered cheating? According to a recent poll taken by WooMe.com users, this is what we found:
55% say “Depends”
20% say “YES”
20% say “NO”
5% say “What they don’t know won’t hurt them”
