Girl, new to dating
If the guy insists on paying should I be protesting or not? I go on dates fully prepared to pay for whatever I purchase, just like when I go out with friends. It feels weird and unnecessary to be treated, especially when I've just met the guy.
What's the appropriate response?
If he insists, go with the flow. If he asks, be honest about what you'd prefer.

the appropriate response is called the 'shuffle' (i might have gotten the name wrong).
its basically where the check comes, and you reach for it, and he reaches for it, and pays for it before you have a chance, and you give him a hard time, and he says something sweet about paying for a pretty lady.
then you use the money that you would have spent on dinner to do something afterward (like dessert, or a cab back to one of your places, or a drink or two or whatever).
some guys are surprisingly turned on by girls who go dutch though. my best friend was seeing a girl earlier this year and he would not stop bragging about how she insists on paying for her half of everything.
You offer to pay, if he insists you let him. If you fight him over it, you're pretty much fighting for dominance and it won't go well.

Turn down a free meal?
Are you insane?
Protest once, but if he insists just let him do it. Just like any social scenario.

What? Perhaps you're too much of a moron to understand that I was offering to send the poorfag some food coupons.
Lol, and you even call someone else stupid.
