If He is Cheap He Doesn't Rate a Date!

Laura went bowling with her date.

At the end of the bowling session it was time to pay for the bowling shoe rental - $8 per pair.

Her date turned to her and said “Hey, I got dinner, how about you pay for your bowling shoes?”

Laura fished around in her bag for cash but came up empty. (she hadn't planned on having to spend money that evening)

“That’s ok “ her date told her “just put it on your credit card!”

Laura tried to charge the $8 to her card but the cashier said there was a $20 minimum.

Instead of just paying for it himself, her date  became irate and started yelling that it was illegal for the credit card to be refused.

Evelyn went out on a first date for dinner  with a new guy she had been set up with.

They were seated at a small table right up against another table where a newly engaged couple was just finishing up their dinner.

“Hey” said the other guy, turning to Evelyn’s date,  “Looks like we ordered too much food. There’s no way we can finish all this. Would you like to have the rest of these tacos?”

“Sure” said Evelyn’s date. He then turned to Evelyn and asked her advice “Should I cancel my dinner order now that I have this guy’s food?”

Becky went out to a movie with her boyfriend.

They waited on line at the ticket booth. Just as it almost became their turn to purchase tickets, her guy took a sudden interest in the movie posters on display and floated away to examine them more closely, leaving Becky to fork over the dough for the tix.

Jenny stopped in at the Super market with her fiance'.

She chose a few items and so did he.

At the cash register he separated her 3 lemons from his groceries on the conveyor belt and told the check- out girl “the lemons are hers”.

Besty told her fiancé that for Valentine’s Day, she really wanted them to go to a Broadway show she had been just dying to see. They were in the city anyway, could they go and pick up the tickets?

Always willing to try to please her, he drove  right over to the theater , and then didn't budge!

 “Aren’t you going in to buy us the tickets?” she asked when she noticed that he made no move to move. “Oh I can’t afford the tickets right now, I thought you were planning on getting them” he said.

Ladies, CHEAP is a huge RED FLAG.

If you experience cheap behavior from a man, please don’t give him a 2^nd date. He doesn’t rate a date, and if you are already deep in, escape!

And bye the way, cheap extends to emotions as well as finances. They are often connected, so that a man who is financially withholding, is often emotionally withholding as well.

If he tells you he likes to re- use his dental floss, (yep, true story) If he is cheap in a restaurant – tries to get you to share one dinner, or worse, bums somebody else’s leftovers, need I say more?

Run for the hills!

If he isn’t gracious enough to pay for your few items at the grocery store, or to pay for the movie tickets, or to cough up 2 tickets to a show for Valentines Day, then do not invest your time or emotions into him.

He isn’t worth your chump change.
