Pay/don't pay is the iceberg 'false conundrum': who pays. In practice: pick a default, be unbothered, lead. Making the bill your personality is a frame leak either way. Logistics: if you invited, having the means is part of the plan.[1][2]
Method
- Decide before. Don't freeze at the table.
- If she insists, don't make it a trial.
- Don't use paying as a good-boy invoice.
Failure mode
A manifesto about the check. She wanted dinner.
