text: if i go on a first date with a guy? maybe to the movies who pays? should i bring money on a first date with a guy the movies is a good idea..the guy should pay or maybe im just old fashioned..my boyfriend always pays for everything if we go out to eat or to the movies i have never paid anything..but its accordint to the guy really..so i think maybe you should take money just in case he doesnt pay..just test the waters to see if hes going to plan on paying or not..when you talk to him just say something like how much is the movie and see what he says...
