no offense to any groups but in our culture women still assume that every expense should be bore by men. even though things are completely different in modern educated societies because unlike our ancestors women do not just stay home and take care of kids and household anymore. They are and must be a part of the workforce. However these cases are still prevalent and I have seen them which is very wrong. Planning is very important. Be careful though!! if you start talking about splitting costs in your new relationship sometimes it might sound very awkward and cheap. sorry but that's how our culture is.

open for critics as always..
