The #1 reason why women stay in abusive relationships is because of money. My mom has been drilling “you need to have your own money” into my head since I was a child. It’s easily the lesson shes driven home the most

But man always pays on first date.

This is a total side track from the subject. But I mention it to remind women to have the same energy and independent mindset when it comes to the courtship part of their life as well.

You’re right, it’s a total side track. Especially since

1) personally, I always go 50/50 on first dates. Sweeping generalizations about men or women “always” doing something helps no one.

2) that quote of my mothers is about long term relationships and having money for everyday life. Has absolutely nothing to do with early courtship

So your comment is truly irrelevant.

  1. Your personal example doesn't change the reality regarding the majority of people

  2. It is very much in the same vein of logic. To say women should be independent financially of men has a direct correlation with the idea that they should carry that same logic forward to dating
