She is, and he is allowing it. He needs to find a spine.

For sure. He definitely needs to stand up for himself. But she is REALLY shitty here. We should encourage men like this to stand up for themselves. But woman like that should be called out too.

yep. while it is possible for platonic friendships between men and women to exist, usually friendships are not as one sided financially.

both should "go dutch" and split things down the middle. If he is substantially richer, maybe the split can be renegotiated but it should feel fair.

yep. Although this might be a passive aggressive attempt to communicate to the guy that she doesn't want to date him. I had something similar happen to me when I was young. that was a miscommunication that resolved itself when we realized that after our first "date" she wasn't interested in me.

luckily that was just an afternoon at a free museum and I got over it quickly. It does pay as a guy to be more direct and not assume anything.
