That wasn’t what he was suggesting. He meant that he would add a flat amount (enough to cover the food and drinks + extra) in the envelope and have the SP pay at the restaurant or bar. He already admitted this was a suggestion made due to lack of sleep and makes no sense even to himself now but at no point was he saying that the cost should come from the SP’s fee.I can't imagine agreeing to a date where I am the one paying. That just sounds like a senario I'm turning down... your entertainment and food is not comeing out of my fee... I don't even eat out from what I get. It is barely enough to survive on as it is. It is for my rent, bills, and own daily life needs. Luxuries are something I am not close to being able to afford yet. Be damned I'm paying for your (his) luxuries out of what I get.
If there is parking to pay I won't even make the visit unless he is paying the parking. (I try to find free street parking, but it isn't always available.)
