I've just learned to invite him over for dinner a lot. So, then I feel as if I'm reciprocating.

He has cooked for me, too. One day, he did some manual household labor for me (that I couldn't have done on my own) and then when I offered to pay for dinner that night (to pay him back), he wouldn't let me. I'm sure he appreciated the guesture, though.
I think he just likes for me to let him be a man. Thats probably the key to what the men on that forum were trying to get across. Some of them feel emasculated by today's women. They are right, we should go back to traditional roles, if thats what they were meaning.
He is very traditional. Its sweet and refreshing! I've had to learn to just let him take care of me, do things for me, pay my way, etc. I'M NOT COMPLAINING BY NO MEANS!!!!! Its nice for a man to be that way! I like him a lot and its a natural, easy relationship. He's a great guy!
I just wondered if anyone else felt the way I do about wanting to reciprocate.

I think its great to have a man who wants to pay for everything, but sometimes, I feel guilty about it. I want to pitch in and pick up the tab sometimes, too. But Aqua won't let me. (We've had probably 12-15 dates).
He has a Cap venus, so I know he's old fashioned in his thinking. Don't get me wrong! I do appreciate it, but I don't want him to feel he always has to pay. I suppose he likes to.
Am I crazy? Does anyone else feel this way.
