I personally never wanted to go on an expensive date, because in my experience, if a guy suggested a fancy place, he expected sex. Like somehow a $20 dinner entitled him to sex. Dude. I'm worth more than a pasta dish. So, I always wanted to go on a cheap date as well, but for different reasons. Plus, stuffy dates are way not fun. I mean, there isn't a terrible amount to do in Phoenix, and it's hot as balls most of the year, but I have done lots of fun things for practically nothing. My fave is Scrabble in Starbucks. A 3 buck date and it's super fun!

I can certainly see that angle for sure. One thing I see a lot is girls wanting to just meet up while they are out with their friends. It takes the pressure off the situation. It can be a double edged sword though.
Oof, I would never go on a date with another girl, if I was actually serious about the guy I was about to meet. Although I have never been one to beat around the bush either. I think that is probably one of the most frustrating parts of modern day dating, well modern day in general I guess: flaky ass people. I don't envy my sister who is still in the dating world after divorce, and even when things are less than ideal in my own marriage, I think about what it's really like out there in dating land and I am immediately motivated to work even harder on my relationship. Between ghosting and whaling and last minute "things coming up" or "fucking and dumping" I am glad to not be in the thick of it. (And I'm not implying that it's all like this, but more than I could handle, that's for sure!)
