Is Tanyel right? Do men have to pay for the first day?
Ah, the age-old question is back. This is a dating etiquette debate that has divided friendship groups and encompassed the Twitter timeline for years. Who should pay on the first date?made a strong statement about the fact that men should pay on the first date – and we’ve got some mixed opinions on the matter. During their first challenge of the series secrets were revealed about the islanders.
We took the question to the Grazia readers to find out what they think on the matter. The answers are mixed and the multifaceted. ‘I would feel uncomfortable with a guy paying for the whole bill, especially if it was an expensive bill. As women, we can’t expect equality but then push for the man to always pay,’ said 27-year-old Samantha from London.
While 35-year-old Katie from Essex stands firmly by the belief that a man should pay regardless of what the date entails. ‘I don’t really budge on this rule – it’s just how it is. I think a man should definitely pay for the first date.I'm very traditional and that's it.' Many women we spoke to also pointed to the importance of how much their significant other earns once they are comfortably dating. If their partner earns significantly more, they would expect them to pay slightly more for date nights and vice versa.shared his expert opinion with Grazia.
A few women we spoke to also mentioned the ever growing cost-of-living crisis. In fact, 40% of single Brits are reporting they aren’t able to date as frequently due to the financial cost-of-living burden, a study by dating platform.com has suggested. Samantha says it's 'unjust' and 'unfair' for a man to be expected to foot the bill during these difficult times.
