When she says she'd feel unsafe if a man didn't pay on the first date, that is such manipulative language. Feel free to say any of the following: 1) I did not feel valued 2) I did not feel like he was into me 3) I felt like he was cheap 4) I did not feel like he could provide for me 5) I did not feel like he cared to provide for me 6) I felt like he was uninterested These statements allow for a real conversation. Unsafe is a word reserved for men who follow you around an empty parking lot at 1 AM. Unsafe is a word you use on men who force themselves into your apartment. Unsafe is a word you use on men who physically or emotionally abuse you. Unsafe is a word you use on men who have inappropriate relations with your teenage daughter. Unsafe is *NOT* a word you use on a man who did not cover the $12.95 for your panini. To use that word to describe a man who did not pay for your chicken parm panini comes off so manipulatively, as if it's designed to shame men into paying for meals so as to avoid the stigma of the label _"person who makes women feel unsafe."_ Men do not want to be considered unsafe, because there is a genuine stigma around being considered unsafe(and often rightfully so). That's such a disappointing thing to hear someone say - particularly someone at this level of expertise & education in the field of relationships. I typically do pay on the first date, and have in the relationships I had that were good. In these cases I usually made more money than the person I was going out with so it seemed like a courtesy. Words have meaning! Do not use them this carelessly.

@audreyquinn73 Місяць тому
I agree. And, as a single woman, I prefer to pay for myself. When a man pays for your meal/drink, he often believes that the woman should provide sexual pleasure for him. It's not generous, but gross and transactional. So many men I've met don't seem to understand that my body has nothing to do with my gratitude. It's much safer for women to pay their way so the men cannot claim they are owed "services" for buying dinner and cinema tickets.
@elvirasayarova7930 Місяць тому
A feeling of insecurity can arise from a combination of the feelings that you have listed, in my opinion. Communicating with a person with whom you consider each other seriously in a long-term relationship, who is the first to lay the proposal to "split the bill" in the foundation of the relationship, gives a cocktail of feelings, for example: - he probably really didn't like it with me, does he need something from me? it turns out that emergence does not work? - is he planning to share everything, and if I'm busy with our children and I can't work, then we'll have to survive? How will he behave? Etc. It turns out that you are not safe from the feeling of a lost and murky long-term perspective. The prospect of losing resources, time and effort is also unsafe. No one wants to suffer. And not just dark alleys In addition, you forever lay a foundation for the first meeting for a woman, either reasons to incite his strength all his life through a joke, or to think that he might fail somewhere and worry. Is it necessary? Is it worth it?
@gabba7315 Місяць тому
You can also ask her, what about it makes it feel unsafe. You can react to a word or seek to understand beyond your own definition of safety.

Before I was a stay at home mother and had a career my partner would never let me pay for any meals or main bills etc so instead I’d surprise him with booking us a holiday or gifts. Relationships aren’t transactional but if you’re both making money then it should bring you joy to share that by being generous with one another where possible. He now is our source of money and I return the favour by keeping a lovely home for him to come back to and caring for our babies. These ‘gender roles’ feel completely natural to us and we’re very happy with what each of us bring to the relationship.
@FableCountry Місяць тому
On the first date, I always pay. My wife literally made more than 15x what I made (I didn't know at the time) but I still happily paid. She told me that if she likes her date, she will let them pay. But if she does not her date, she will split the bill. Her reasoning is if she lets her date pay, she feels ok with wanting to owe her date and see them again. I've since transitioned careers and my wife still makes more than me but she has never put how much money she makes in my face...ever. Six years later, and we have two lovely daughters now. My wife is truly unique and breaks so many conventions. She just knew it had to be me. She's perfect, a true 10/10 and turns heads in any room she enters. Still feels like a dream

It is some sort of ingrained expectation from society and learned behavior while we grow up. Just like some women are put off by men not paying a lot of men are put off by women working in the same field as them but in a much higher position. Men somehow feel insecure if their partner calls the big shots, earns much more and has more people she leads than him. Rationally it doesn't make sense why she should be less attractive to the majority of men. But it is an ingrained expectation that women are led by men. Not that women lead men.

We ended up talking until the bar closed! 🤣 we both thought each one was lying about not drinking… to this day we laugh about it. Then we went on a date a few days later… we went on a hike and then to the beach. It was SO fun. We are total opposites, but laughed a lot together, love dogs, same musical foundations. He is 12 years older than me and I met him at 28. We have been together for almost ten years and have a son. I never wanted to marry and have kids and now that I’m here, I wouldn’t change it for the world! Sometimes we think we know what’s best for us…but the universe will unfold your path if you trust.

Turned out she was 14 years older than he, was divorced with two children that were in the custody of the father. We were all in shock. She really looked 28, he was 21 when they met. It was really hard on him, but the whole family was in shock. She was like 40, almost felt like she was a pedophile. The. Second one got pregnant, now he was 32. He was raised right, he got her a diamond and arranged a nice meal, she stood him up. Her mother injected herself into the picture and was in the delivery room, he said he felt pushed away. After three months of him spending the weekends with the baby and the Mom and her two sons from a previous relationship, she told him that he was not the father. Now, he had bonded with the baby and developed feelings for the whole family, again shock and heart break. I pray that he finds someone who will really love him He is tall and handsome with his own electric company. He owns his home. He has a lot to offer. 😕💔

They're repeating the cycle.

The “paying the bill” is also cultural, I’m Dutch & my husband is German. In our culture the person who asked the other pays or the highest earner/person that can miss it most easily. Splitting is also common and an expected question, it just isn’t that big of a deal in our cultures. My spouse and I got married at 22 & 27 at 10/10/22. We’ve both been through a lot in life so we were ready. Most people around my age simply didn’t have to ask themselves hard hitting questions about their role in the family, picking up more responsibilities due to necessity, etc. Live before you get married, but having profound trauma accelerates your mental ageing a lot of the time

Love a partner in a MATURE way, not having to take care of ‘his’ needs, I feel so grateful that we get to hear more and more about menopause. I do not wanna talk bad about men.

As a woman who believes in equal pay for equal work I do not understand how expecting a man to pay on the first date is fair or furthering a woman's desire to be treated as an equal. I am fine if the man really wants to pay but I would like Lori to give me a rational reason why she believes this is essential and if she would feel slighted if an employer would pay her less because she is a woman? I do not see the logic in expecting the man to pay just because he is a man? Thank you.

All I know is when I was getting into dating I didn't want to go for a man with a lot of money. I was taught not to be a gold digger (by Disney movies like Aladdin) (I had 0 guidance from parents on how to choose) I always tried to show I could take care of myself and I had a hard time letting a man do nice things for me that cost money. Surprise surprise I only attracted leeches. Men who didn't know how to be responsible and take care of even basic adult things.
@nkl124 Місяць тому
💯 I think this can be a character issue but not specific to men. What would Lori say about women who make more money than the man they are going on a date with and yet expect the man to pay. How does that then translate to a relationship, to her point, where roles may be different depending on circumstances at the time? What if the woman has an incredible career she loves or inherited a company from her family and her husband agreed to be a stay home dad? As a woman, I see absolutely no issues with splitting the bill ESPECIALLY on a first date. If I was a man I would not want to go all out on a first date on a woman whom I don’t even know her character
@fortheloveoftravel758 Місяць тому
I am 54, divorced. There is no such a thing as equal woman and man. This woke idea has left men confused and lost as to their role. Him paying for a first or whichever date was never about the money or cost of it, it's a gesture / chilvery that demonstrates his interest in the woman and A date doesn't have to cost money however we don't live in a free world do we? It's a gesture to woo the woman, to create a romantic atmosphere. A type of date and environment set the mood and pace. A coffee vs lunch vs dinner, walk in the park vs picnic, movie, all could yield different result, determining whether you go home with the woman or not, even whether you get a kiss at the end of the date or not. People are just too focused on the cash component of it, overthinking and complicating the whole dating process. I am not equal to a man, nor want to be, that doesn't mean I want to be dominated and abused but i know my place in a relationship as much as I am strong and independent. He's the head or I make him feel like the head and i am his support even though i am actually leading period 😅

You already know the answer to this. These things like the man paying is an advantage that the patriarchy gives to women and women don’t want to give up. Therefore most women don’t want equality.

I do not believe in dating. It is information-seeking at best and experimental sex at worst. Meeting people in a context of living is more natural and anxiety-free, as there are repeated encounters and the presence of others, usually in daytime. Many pitfalls are avoided, from disappointment to heartbreak. The library, games or sports at the park, a workshop or class, hiking groups, scrabble groups, the list is long. Put aside the psychology books, take a break from therapy, and take action! Worked for me.

I think we’re drowning in pornography and overly romantic art as a society. Love and sex are our weaknesses, so they are easy to sell. But we definitely need a change from a lot of things in our economy. I’ve been watching so many of your videos, Steven, and by this point I feel like the Western world is going through a crisis that looks good on the outside, but is what it is on the inside. I come from Romania, a very lively country, where people are open to each other and more family oriented than driven by the perfect romance and the perfect career. I’m not saying everything is perfect there, but at least you can pour your heart out to just about anyone. We look each other in the eyes and we joke around a lot, things are never too formal and our emotional lives are not a taboo, nor our opinions, whether politically correct or incorrect. I notice that the further West I look, the more perfectionism I see and the more enemy like ways of relating to one another. I don’t know what it is about being Latins that made us the way we are, but I thank God often for it. Maybe you could invite some Sociologists, Anthropologists and Historians too, or intellectuals and professionals from other European countries as well! Thank you for the episode and good luck with whatever you want to do next!

It's important that you understand, though... that women are VERY demanding by nature and want the best of the best of everything. They are easily satisfied with the very best of everything. A man is generally quite satisfied with just having a partner when it comes to sex. Someone who is present, reasonably enthusiastic, and giving in bed... this kind of woman is just fine for a man. NOT the case with women though. They lay their own good time (and climax) at the feet of a man and will often say that "he didn't make me finish" or words to that effect. For a woman- if the sex is good, then it's 30% of the relationship, but if it's NOT good... then that represents 80% of the relationship.

If you want a man who will emotionally support you, you will have to believe in him and emotionally support him. And where do you find him? The jobs that make the community function, that are low paying often. Blue collar jobs, trade school jobs, maybe even working at a charity part time. Find the men who care about their community, and you will find a man who will care about you, and your children.

I've been watching Diary of a CEO podcasts for about 2 and a half years. I don't understand how there can be anyone that does not watch these podcasts. Every episode, whether you like the guest or not, if you keep an open mind, you will learn so much. I don't agree with everything any one person says, but I have learned so much from every episode. I am an online English Tutor and I have been using these podcasts to create lesson plans that are interesting and thought-provoking. Also, who needs a therapist when you have the Diary of a CEO?! Always keeping it fresh and choosing current topics! Absolutely amazing work Steven! I look forward to your future episodes! Never stop!
@nightmareTomek Місяць тому
If you know this already, there's nothing to learn. You just find out that they are just humans and have just opinions, nothing more. On podcasts like these what they share can be put into 2 categories, one is the studies they recite, which usually accurately reflect reality, and the other category is their opinion that fill the gaps whenever the science doesn't have the answers yet. And unfortunately in most cases, or all cases when the guests aren't clinical psychologists, this 2nd category is full of wishful thinking and utter nonsense that people suck up anyway.
@rebekahjohnson9780 Місяць тому
Thanks for sharing your perspective. While I understand the limitations of opinions shared on podcasts, I still find it valuable and am open to the insights that guests share. I believe it is important to be open-minded and listen to others' opinions even if it does not align with mine. Doing this allows me to broaden my understanding, challenge my beliefs, and have empathy for others. It can help many people form deeper connections with others and develop themselves. If you watch any podcast and blindly believe everything, or if you reject everything because you think you know it all, then you are learning nothing. Everyone can teach us something whether we agree with them or not. Even you can teach people how to be skeptical and aware of personal biases. So that's great!
@nightmareTomek Місяць тому
@@rebekahjohnson9780 Well, maybe that's what I'm trying to do, teach people to be skeptical. On one hand you're right, it's good to be open minded, but on the other hand in an attempt to be open minded people become susceptible to misinformation. And that's what I see, when there's someone on a podcast that says a lot of nonsense between his good advice, I don't see people being critical in the comments, or discussing the stuff they don't agree with. They have equally as much praise for him as for the other person that barely said any nonsense.

Ordering tap water can mean SO many different things. I don’t eat out often and when I do, I usually order take out and pick it up myself. I do this because I truly enjoy quiet spaces to eat and the majority of places are always buzzing with activity and noise. When I go to a restaurant and sit down, 99% of the time I order tap water or if I’m craving soda, I’ll order sparkling water regardless of who is paying (I do this even at times when it’s a big party and one of my friends is paying for the whole thing). I do this because I realize that I never drink as much water as I should. Additionally, most drinks (alcoholic or not) have a lot of sugar and I prefer to eat my calories rather than drink them. What she says about making assumptions based on what a person orders at a restaurant is absolutely true. The reality is that in the beginning , you don’t know anything about this person. How can you be so certain of why they do the things they do? Stay observant but don’t be judgemental.

My bf and me have been together for a year and I feel like he’s still opening up to me because he’s shy. So for some people it takes a looong time to really feel comfortable enough to be themselves with you. Our first 4 dates were with friends and I just think that’s the best way to meet someone because it allows them to open up more to the other people who are in the room so you can kinda see how they really are because it’s so hard for them to open up to the person they really like and want their approval the most. ❤

It rang a bell when "Who pays for coffee" came up in this conversation. A few years back, I went for a 'first coffee' with someone I'd met online, and I had arrived at the coffee shop before him, so I had bought my own to sip on while I waited for him. He arrived, bought his own, and then naturally since I had finished mine sooner, I said I might like another one. He immediately stood up (I'm thinking perhaps he would have said, "Here I'll get this one". But no, he simply stood up, while I walked up to the counter to buy my second cup. It was not a ploy on my part -- I honestly thought he would offer (as I would in a similar circumstance with a friend). I suppose the act of standing made him feel he was being gentlemanly, but I was kind of stupified. Needless to say, that was our only meeting.

This woman is what is wrong with dating culture. Renowned blah blah blah, therapist this, pscho that. Just because she's smiling and acting nice doesn't change what she is saying. She said it depends on the individual when asked about expectations. That's absurd and everyone knows it. When asked about paying for dinner, she gives a definitive answer. I wish I would have known this stuff 20 years ago. I would be so much further as a man than I am now. I wasted my time and money trying to start a family and failing miserably. 5 years ago, I took my pocket change and started a business. It's really difficult, but it's possible to learn. When working with investments or ideas, failures make sense. You learn from them. Dating is beyond confusing. Sometimes individualism, sometimes treat every woman the same
@Haradeas Місяць тому
I do not think this therapist understand the bigger issue behind the "it is just a 5 dollar coffee". I understand it like this: I feel entitled that if you are in my presence (and you had a good time) you pay my coffee. I dont like that. Assuming the men pays is like assume the women will have sex after every date. The first part people think is normal, yet the second part horrifies people... *sigh humans.

We've been together almost 20 years now. I chose him and he chose me. We've made so many memories together way back in middle school. We are vulnerable with each and have created a safe space at home to express ourselves. He does well expressing his feelings but I don't. I've been working on it.
