He has his own TRAIN??!! Cool! If not, well then it all depends.
He may not know how to drive, or perhaps the place he wanted to go to doesn’t have parking in the area or just parking garages,
that cost like 29.99 per hour.
Always judge from third date and on. The first one is when he doesn’t know you at all & maybe he’s been out with 5 other girls the past month, which he had to turn down as they weren’t a match. At this point he’s just sick of spending $70-$80 just to find out it’s not for him.
The second date however is when you both agreed (or when a Shadchan twisted one or both parties to “Give it another shot”
they’re crazy about you) Really? They sure have a funny way of showing it. etc..
My point being, there’s a 50% chance he’ll start spending from 2nd date on, as there’s a 25% chance that he actually wanted to see you again, and a 15% chance you wanted to see him too, & a 10% chance that although he’s cheap, he wont want you to think so, therefore he’ll splurge on the second date by borrowing his friend car. When I mean splurge I mean paying for gas and incidentals.
So in conclusion, you see why it’s just better to give him another two chances, like this on the third date when you realize you’re walk up the steps to the train. You take the train home,
and tell him, I hope you had a nice time. Thanks for paying!
