        Or you know, going grocery shopping and making dinner at home.

        It’s still gonna cost $200 but you’ll be set for a few days at least.

          Or you know, potluck orgy where the cost of the meal is spread out over multiple people? You’ll still have leftover and you can reduce the amount of dishes if the rule is “no sex ‘til the sink is empty”.

      Yeah but on the first dates you gotta try to impress a little right, don’t want to come off as too poor or cheap (depending on circumstances, 2 students in exact same situation is different than older working adults, for example)

        This feels like a capitalistic idea to convince people thay they need to spend money to find a partner or people to be with. Dating can have many forms and you can get to know people in many different places. You don’t have to spend a lot of money to talk to people in hobby groups or go take a walk/drink a coffee with someone

        Nah, coffee date. No pressure, easy to hear each other, easy to split bill and easy to leave if it’s not going well.

          Yep coffee date first, dinner date second if the coffee date goes well.

          There are other fun things you can do on a first date that don’t cost money too.
