Poor Economy Means Dating Rules Have Changed?


Everyone is feeling the financial squeeze in some form or another with the way the economy is looking in early 2009. But does that mean dating should be put on the back burner while the funds and being stretched?


Dating these days has become a little different. The man can't always wine and dine his way into a woman's heart anymore, meaning he has to become a little more creative, or , she has to help pick up the check.

There was an article on upnorthlive.com, touching on how couples are working on continuing their dating trends, and how new couples are starting up.

College students on a budget are needing to be a bit more creative, and think about how they spend their money. With students with loans out and the fear of not getting that dream job after graduation, pennies have to be pinched in certain areas. Sometimes this just means not splurging on that special date, even if you really wish you could.

Many girls wouldn't mind helping out with the check on the second date, or even the first if it seems appropriate, because chances are, they understand and are feeling the budget crunch too.
