Oh, come on. She could invite me over for a home-cooked meal, she
could ask me to go for a walk or a hike, she could take me to a
museum, she could take me to a movie on Saturday afternoon when the
admission is lower...I definitely don't want to bother with a woman
who has so little imagination that she can't think of some way to
spend time with me without spending a lot of money.

If the woman feels that she has to match my financial contributions,
I would say that she has a very weak sense of self...A strong,
self-assured person knows that money has very little to do with a
satisfying relationship.

Best regards,
