Movies with friend


Question Posted Monday August 25 2008, 2:50 am

If I (guy) see a movie with a friend (girl), should I buy her ticket? It seems like doing so would be awkward, and not doing so would also be awkward. So which is the least awkward?

yes of coarse you should buy it, you guys are on a date and that is the right thing to do, she may ask are you sure so just do it, she will be very happy with you for that:)

If she's just your friend and you don't have feelings for her, don't pay for her ticket (unless she just lost her wallet or something). Paying for her would send her signals that you might like her, and that could be potentially awkward and might make her think that it's a date or something.

I've been to movies before with guys who are just friends, and it wasn't awkward at all for me to pay for myself and for him to pay for himself. That way, it's definitely established that it's a "just friends" thing so it's not awkward.

If you guys are just friends, it's perfectly normal if you want to pay for her ticket. It depends on who invited who; If you asked her to go, then it's okay for you to pay. But if you're just meeting up there, possibly with more friends, she should probably pay up for her own ticket. If you feel bad about not buying the ticket, you can always treat her to popcorn later ^.^

Honestly, if you two are just friends, the most awkward would be if you payed. Sure, it would be a nice gesture, but it could send signals you don't want to be sending.

Whenever I go to the movies with some female friends, everyone pays their own, unless their boyfriend comes with them?

Honestly, you should only be buying the ticket if it is for sure a date. since you guys are friends I don't suggest paying right off the bat, but you can ask just to be polite.

Well whenever I go to the movies with a good guy friend they've paid for my ticket and then I usually buy them a drink or whatever.
Sometimes they pay for everything there and sometimes I insist on buying my ticket.
It depends what type of friend she is.
If it's a date, I think you should buy her a ticket.
If she's a good friend, she'll probably insist on buying her ticket.

It all depends :)
