This is why the talk radio shock jock, Tom Leykis, always told his listening audience to never, ever spend more than $40 on a date.

The best part?

He told the men in his listening audience to eat a meal alone before you take her out to dinner. Once you are at a restaurant let her order whatever she wants and then you order only a salad.

That site and those rules are disgusting.

When I was younger, we had a name for these women: “Dinner whores”

1st date dinner dates are for suckers.

If a girl likes you, she will like you regardless if you spend $10.00 on a date or $100.00 or $1000.00

In fact, the more you spend, the more uncomfortable many women will feel as they will feel a sense of obligation and/or that you are trying to “buy” their company.

You are basically sub-communicating that you think she’s a whore that can be bought with expensive dinners and insulting her.

One of the most amazing and beautiful women I ever dated, who was absolutely crazy about me and was my girlfriend for over a year didn’t give a hoot about fancy dinners and such.

Our first date was at a McDonald’s.

Tom Lykis is about as subtle as a sledge hammer, but I agree with about half of his “rules”

And women have their dating rules as well, and they are far more conniving and ruthless in many cases.

Tom Leykis...you don't really want to take advice from this fat slob. Married four times (last time I checked), had to enter a program for wife batterers. Brags about all the abortions he paid for. When he worked for WRKO in Boston, he apparently shoved his then-wife to the floor after a radio Christmas party and was arrested for domestic assault.

I could see him not wanting to pay more than $40 on a date however. The type of women he would attract wouldn't be worth any more than that.
