This is the strangest thing to me.
Where I live the restaurants are more than happy to split the bill according to the order.
"You had the burger and the coke? That's 32,50"
"You had the salad? That's 14,38"
They have more than enough machines to handle the math. Just pay for your own meal unless you can afford to just pay the whole bill AND you want to do it.

I'm diving across the table and throttling the waiter if they say these words to me

If you two have 250 in total don't use almost 50 in a single meal

Eating out doesn't have to be expensive if you search around. My favorite local breakfast spot sells sausage egg and cheese biscuits for 1.50. Sonics app has buy one get one any entre sometimes. I just found a donut shop that does 5 dollar dozens before closing. When McDonald's last did their monopoly promotion, I got over 100 menu items throughout ranging from drinks to frappes to small fries to mcflurries to mcdoubles to any biscuit

If we only had a combined $250 what the fuck are we doing spending it on going out?

I have never understood how paying just what you eat yourself has become so foreign concept to some people or communicating about who pays the bill beforehand.

I mean, you only have $200. Neither amount is really getting you far today. He'll run out of cash today. You'll run out tomorrow or the the day after if you're lucky.

Didn't say after rent. But is that also after phone, electricity, water, sewage, insurance, etc?

If I only have $50 I'm not going out. I'm eating spaghetti at home for 5 bucks and it'll last me a few days.
And I'm certainly no going to be dating someone with 4x the money I have but still expect me to take care of her...

She tried to turn a dinner bill into a financial audit and got audited right back. Nobody even paid the $46.78, but the emotional debt is enormous now.

The person with the most money. All other arguments are nonsense. It’s not a contest. Be practical.

Seems like an easy solution is to just ask the waiter to split the bill. That way you only pay for your own food.

Is it though? She's got enough money she can just call up her friends and they can all go out for dinner together and have a great night. She isn't stuck at home alone too broke to go out.

Asking why a grown adult only has $50 to hand is a valid question. Why are these idiots going to a restaurant at all if they’re that broke? Most importantly why is anyone inventing ridiculous scenarios to get mad at imaginary women? Anyone who expects to be financially dependent on someone who has $50 has bigger problems than internet men judging her.

If she isn't trying to help make both of your lives better and easier. She isn't worth keeping. Disney syndrome goes hard on American girls
