A female United Kingdom age 36-40, anonymous writes:

I am looking for some advice. I was talking to this for like 2 weeks I came across online. We hit it off so much we had a date tonight. He wasn't what I expected to be honest. It's not that he's not good looking. He almost looks too good looking. I would go as far as saying he looks like the type of guy would see and think was maybe gay even though I know he's straight. He's really really skinny has olive skin and nice check bones. We get on great and the night was good apart from when the bill came and when I offered to pay towards it he said you can get the next one. Not that I expect a guy to pay for me but having someone say that on a first date was a bit odd to me? Anyways please tell me what you think.

Honeypie agony auntWhy not give it a few dates and see how you two fit? Not just how you look together?

It's not his looks I think you misunderstand me. If I had just met him and he was a stranger say I would have got the idea he was gay. He's really good looking but I don't know if we would look odd together or not.

Honeypie agony auntAre you worried what OTHERS might think? (about his looks) or are his looks a turn off for you?

If it's the first, I'd say screw what others think, if it's the latter... then don't string him along. Though... don't "hate" him cause he's pretty :) KWIM?

My main concern really was the fact although I know he is straight he looks quite gay. I have a lot of gay friends it's not being gay or I'd he was that's the issue he just looks too pretty for me f that makes sense at all.

Honeypie agony auntI think it means he likes the fact that you want to "help" pay and that he wants to see you again.

I don't think it's odd, specially since YOU offered to pay.

Aunty BimBim agony auntThat saying is quite common in the circles I mix in, amongst established friendships etc, it will usually mean, your turn to pay next time, but with people we hardly know its just an expression meaning we are happy to pay this time, but I acknowledge your willingness to pay.

Dont dwell on it, but if you have another date, just watch the body language in case he DOES expect you to pick up the bill .... Good Luck
