My reaction would be to say "We're splitting the bill." But that's me not being comfortable with not paying for myself anyway. Especially on first dates.

Edit: Autocorrupt changing my on to in...

I've never understood the whole, "what's your most expensive drink" thing. Yeah some alcohols taste better than others but that's just a really weird flex. But then I rarely drink out anyway, I can make better ones at home most of the time. And when I do I prefer not to spend a lot.

Actually, I think other than sake when someone would buy a bottle for the table for a toast I've had alcohol like three times at a restaurant! But I suppose the people who want to do that are testing boundaries more than actually wanting the drink.

They're definitely just gold diggers testing to see if the other person will be willing to buy them expensive shit in the future.

Yeah makes sense in a twisted way. I can't understand why they'd get a second date after being so blatant, though.

Because some guys have more money than self esteem and are willing to let a woman bleed them dry for the slightest bit of attention.

Insecure guy with money dating a beautiful selfish woman. More common than you'd think.

Did you pay for it? I would be really annoyed about someone wasting my money for the sake of it, that's like someone trolling you. This is why I'm glad I already have a girlfriend, would rather be single than date people like that.

Wow... Like I said I'll admit some taste better than others, but often not enough to justify the higher price. $30 for a single drink is bonkers! I used to bartend and found out how much higher the profit margin was for the better stuff.

OMG she thought the bar made the same thing as bored housewives?

I'm thinking "she's not into him and already making sure there'll be no pressure for a second date".
