That’s right, being an advanced person is always an advantage. Planning your first date will keep you away from financial as well as emotional troubles. Make sure that everything is well- planned, prepared and reserved. Knowledge of the place and the price will be the light on your way to your first date.

How about a romantic dinner at the apartment? It’s easier to make a move when the partner is already in the apartment!

“The absolute worst date I had was actually a second date. The fellow invited me to join him for lunch at a restaurant of his choice. When we sat down, he asked if I minded that he used a coupon. Of course, I didn’t. We all need to save money. What I didn’t anticipate was him pulling out a “buy one entrée, get a second entrée free” coupon and then expecting me to pay for my meal and the tip. He handed me cash for his soda and left the table immediately. I was stunned! There was no third date.”

Yikes!

Its’ all about the idea and date, so have fun. If you go out, make it for drinks and appetizers, not a full dinner. It’s more casual and fun, should save a little bit of money. Or go for clever ideas. I recently took a date to a byob jazz bar she’s never been to before. Cover wasn’t expensive and had 2 bottles of wine at home already. Was a great date and didn’t spend a lot.

Can’t believe he stuck you with the bill! This is a cool article because it deals with finance and well…dating! I also like it when dates plan something interesting and because it’s different than the usual dinner and a movie which is nice ! And it shows that he took the time out to plan something creative for me and that’s always appreciated.

Great article! Although I have not experienced using coupons for a date, I can see why it is never a good idea to have someone you invited for a date, pay for your dinner or lunch. Besides, fred is right! It’s a scam!

Oh don’t get me started. I’ve been on many dates where the guy was just plain cheap. It’s one thing to save money, but it’s entirely another thing all together when someone just tries to save money at your expense.

No thanks!!

Wow, first of all I have to say, that guy sounds like a real piece of work! I mean, I’m all for saving a buck or two, but come on man, show just a little consideration.

Honestly, as a long-time frugal girl, I always hated spendthrift dates. I knew I could never have a relationship with a guy like that. People who are over-indulgent with others are often more over-indulgent with themselves.

When I met my husband to be, we were both poor grad students. He would buy raspberry yogurt for me as a treat. I was so happy!

After 30plus years together, I have to say that financial compatibility is very important.
