Would you keep dating a guy who uses coupons everytime you go out for dinner?

My boyfriend who uses coupons every time we go out for dinner, and it's always a place we go to where the discount is! He is a not hurting for money by no means, and is the CEO of his own company. When I want to go somewhere that doesn't involve a coupon he ignores my request. Any advice?Would you keep dating a guy who uses coupons everytime you go out for dinner?
Well if you like everything else about him, that's not a very solid reason to just dump him. Maybe he is saving up his extra money for something, you don't know. Or maybe he's just frugal to the point of seeming cheap. I know a guy who makes six figures and still uses every coupon, hits every sale, and saves every penny he can. It's annoying, but it's his decision. If you want to go to a certain place, you pay for the night. Set an example. I am of the mind that the guy should not always pay. That's not fair.Would you keep dating a guy who uses coupons everytime you go out for dinner?
Indeed! .. because that guy will know how to save a dollar. Just because he uses coupons doesn't mean he's cheap. Whenever I go grocery shopping, I try to use coupons to save money. So, how could I look down on a person who was also using coupons to save money also?





I agree with the other poster. If you want to go somewhere that doesn't involve a discount, make the suggestion and pay for it. If you do go places and pay, I don't see what your problem is. Don't expect him to spend money, if you're not willing to. For real, I would have to wonder if I would keep dating someone who always expected me to shell out money- especially if it was a boyfriend/girlfriend relationship. I will never teach my son to be someone's ATM. Some guys need to wise up.
Thats the most shallow question I've ever heard.





Were in a terrible economic recession and you don't want to get food with coupons? It doesn't matter if hes rich, hes still trying to save money.





Be happy that he's intelligent enough to be frugal with his spendings. If youre thinking about dumping him over the use of COUPONS then go ahead and do it, he deserves better than you.





Too good for coupons, who would have thought?
Lol, Maybe you should just ask him why he does that when you know he has the money. How bout you try this, next time yall go somewhere for dinner and the check comes pay your half and say, I dont want to keep swipping all your money (or something that will make him feel bad about his manhood and not being able to flat out pay for dinner). Then dont call him, wait for him to call you and if he doesnt then just keep enjoying the dinners i guess!
Lmao, he sounds like a cheapskate.I'd stick to him for sometime but afterwards if it continues i might just throw a fit to see if he changes but if it still doesn't the fact that i stay or leave him would depend on how much i like him.If it's just a crush then i'd leave but if i truly like him i'd stay.
I think you鈥檒l probably be able to find the answer to your dilemma at Lisa Daily鈥檚 site, http://www.datingexpert.tv (Plus, there鈥檚 a lot of good info there.) She鈥檚 the author of two dating books, HOW TO DATE LIKE A GROWN-UP and STOP GETTING DUMPED. It鈥檚 one of my favorite sites for dating tips and advice, and the videos are pretty funny.





I鈥檓 pretty sure she answers questions that are sent to her, you might try her for an answer to your question.
Just think about it, you will probably always have money, I just don't know about spending it!!!! If he is cheap with you but not with himself, dump the loser. But if it is for a good reason, you probably could understand.





Good Reasons: his job is not secure, paying for all the bills and you have no job but with say so in fiances, planning on buying a house, car, etc.
i wouldnt mind at all, infact id be quite pleased he wasnt wasting his money,





a man who is good with money is worth holding on to, as alot just spend spend spend on cr*p.





Yeah so dont worry about the coupon thing, who cares anyway!
I was going to say, as long as he's not being cheap with you...But it seems he is, so dump him!
