i always thought the boyfriends paid up everytime coz whether the girl is working or not,he still gets to enjoy the 'benefits' (ahem!ahem!) of being her official boyfriend....so it's actually okay for him to pay up,no? :P okay,i'm being wicked here! LOL but just as a matter of concern for his dwindling finance,we could sometimes 'offer' to pay up.....and if possible after seeing the bill :D LOL
