i had a guy get me to pick him up on a first date (which i don’t mind) but he genuinely got mad when i asked him to buy either my ticket, gas or a snack. in my experience this specific red flag leads to so many more. i say leave sooner than later girl. you deserve better!!!

He’s just a user who thinks you’re stupid. Honestly.

if he isn’t giving provider energy definitely! they usually only get worse the longer the relationship goes on so if that’s how it starts it’s not a good sign. don’t waste your time on men that think they’re the prize

It’s not about “provider energy” it’s about a balance of roles and expectations in the relationship. He seems to expect it regardless of conventional roles. Communication would help. It’s not that men aren’t the prize, everyone is, they deserve to feel loved and doted on, but the imbalance of those (wanting her to do things he should while likely not treating her the same) is the issue

I’m just saying dating is less about a provider and dependant dynamic and more like kind of a one to one mutual kind of relationship thing where you care for each other…. Good luck with that

this is what i said except i got downvoted for saying it lol. i’ve had similar experiences! usually people put their best foot forward first so if they’re already like that it usually doesn’t get better!
