I suspect the haters will flame me over this, but, it needs to be said, because it's the truth:

If you're doing it "right", dating can be a net source of income. Even for a man.

The Physicist PhD chick i was dating (who still texts me at least once a week with an "I miss you") was always spending money on me. I was her younger long haired boy toy, and she treated me as such.

She bought me Swarovski crystal, top shelf Russian vodkas(that i don't even drink), all my practice ammo any time we went to the range (I (re)taught her to shoot and got her into HK's), and was constantly sending me greeting cards and even flowers a couple times. She also asked constantly to take me to the Opera or Theater (lol, yeah, right). I told her i didn't have the right kind of clothes for that environment, she offered to buy them for me. (I declined).

The only money i ever spent on her was to take her to see Sherlock Holmes. (I made it clear to her from the start that i'm a guy on disability with not much money and that i could not give her material things. Many, many girls will absolutely overlook your financial status for a variety of reasons)

Cougars are real, and they will absolutely try and buy your love. Also, if you can stomach it(i cannot), fat girls will shower you in gifts. A friend of mine used to specialize in "hogging," he didn't even work. His fat girls would move him in and pay all his bills. And he absolutely treated them like crap.

Dating SUPER hot chicks can be extremely expensive though. They will absolutely suck you dry if you let them. But again, if you find the super hot girl that looks at YOU as if you're the super hot one, they'll do anything for you. The odds of this are very small for most of us though.
