Should You Go 50/50?

Who should pick up the tab on a date? Is it about money, values, or expectations? In this episode, we talk about one of modern dating’s most debated topics: should you go 50/50? We take a look at the history of dating and gender roles, exploring how traditional norms have shaped our views on paying for dates today. Is it just an outdated custom, or does it still carry significance in today’s relationships? We also discuss what paying (or not paying) says about interest and effort - does splitting the bill signal a lack of investment, or is it about financial independence? Finally, we explore how the 50/50 debate changes in long-term relationships. Does financial equality still hold, or do things shift as careers, responsibilities, and family life come into the picture?
