celestialism (US)
I always offer to pay my half and am always fully able and willing to do so, but sometimes a man absolutely insists on paying, so I let him. It seems to be a point of pride for some men.
For early dates, I always insist on paying my way for at least part of the date. Later, in a relationship, it's fun to treat one another, but I think picking up the whole tab should be more influenced by who earns more - after all, that's why men used to pay all the time.
