Would you ask a meet to chip in regarding petrol money? I have been asked and declined. The guy told me it would take an hour to get here.So guys what would you do if you had to travel a distance? |

Hmmm. No, I don't think I would ask for any.
Reason being, it's my choice to travel down that far. No one's forcing me to so I don't see why I should ask someone to compensate me. |

I would only ask someone to chip in for petrol if I was giving them a lift somewhere.
Just my opinion but I reckon it's a bit brass necked to ask for petrol money so you can get to a meet.
If it was a big distance (100+ miles) and they offered,then I'd accept.I wouldn't ask though. |

I would be shocked if someone asked me for fuel money. Or to validate their parking *laughs* If I was travelling to meet them, I wouldn't dream of asking them to cover half my train fare! |

I went to meet a guy recently (not off this site, I already knew him)...He offered me petrol money, I told him not to be daft (it was only about 9 miles) and he gave me two big bars of galaxy....I felt like a winner that night. |

To be honest if I was asking for help towards travel costs I would seriously have a good look at my life and try and fix that before looking for long distance meets |

if you're hosting then i think it's fair to assume they would pay travel costs.
i only offer petrol money if someone is giving me a lift. and probably then i forgt most of the time. |

If a meet travelled to me I'd feed him but wouldn't pay his petrol money! I've met at least 50 people over the last 5 years that are adamant I'm fake and I've said right I'll meet you by KFC by the pines (it's right next to the m4) I say when I get there and prove I'm the person in the pictures you can buy me a fully loaded box meal. It's a good way to get a free KFC! |

No way it would be my choice to travel to you so my responsibility to make sure I can afford the trip .same with drinks on a social I pay hotels I pay to but I have gone Dutch on a few occasion when the woman involved insisted. |

"I always offer and alway get declined. Wouldn't be impressed if a guy asked though you offer petrol money?"
As I don't drive the guy I've been seeing for months tends to pick me up half way. Offered petrol money so many so many times and he would never except.
I'm a single mum who likes to earn money and pay her way, I understand I don't earn a huge amount but I'm so used to paying for everything. |

I'd say 'I'll give you £20 for petroleum but if you cum during the meet you owe me £50!' . Cheeky bugger!
We've travelled well over an hour each way before, paid for the drinks and a nice hotel because it's something we wanted to do and could afford it at the time. If we couldn't afford it we wouldn't have arranged it. |

A friend was setting up a meet with a single fem, (they were a couple).
First the fem asked for travel money, and they agreed.
Then she asked for food money, or at least a takeaway when she got there.. after a conflab, they agreed.
Then she asked for a specific bottle of drink to be available, and they thought, hey, why not.
Then she asked for babysitting money for the whole night, as she was supposed to be staying over.......... suffice to say they told her not to bother lol! |

Asking for petrol money = do not meet me.
What happened to decorum??? |

I'd be much happier if my meets bought me stuff as well paid for my transport costs. Nothing too flash. Perhaps some new clothes or a weekend away somewhere nice. But no. So far they've all been fairly disrespectful in that respect. Should I block them?

He's effectively asking you to pay for the pleasure of his company, which is actually really insulting. Effectively saying you're otherwise not worth making an effort - or even a small financial sacrifice - for. Can't believe 45 mins drive would be such a big deal.
I drove a three hour round trip the other week, so did the person I was meeting ... and I was very happy to do so because I wanted to be there.

Conflab...
Best slang word on this thread. "
I used it with the children this week and they thought I'd made it up. I had to explain the etymology (confabulation) and then I got confused when they asked, Why is it 'flab' then?

That is a somewhat steorotypical slur upon the good folk of Yorkshire. I have often heard that Yorkshiremen anew tightfisted.
I am the opposite of this but perhaps because I am trying to prove the stereotype to be wrong. |

An hours travel in fuel is about 5 quid, maybe tenner both ways, tops £15.
Is he driving a v8? A tank? Private jet or helicopter?
Is he also asking you to go half on condoms? PPE? Don't forget wear and tear on the tyres.
Doors he get a meal allowance too?
Oh and check he's put admin costs into the mix.
Don't pay by card, I believe there is a charge for card payments too.
And a 15? tip.
If you book on line you do get a discount though.....

Everything has to be negotiated and agreed upfront. I will always listen and always say no, when I don't want to engage with anything that's just not reasonable.
I'm not a subsidiser of others' travel dilemmas or desperation. Men here probably have to learn not to try punching above their weight - sexually and financially.
Likewise I'm not refunding part of the higher fees that guys pay as club admission, if he shags me there. |

I'm quite happy to travel to meet even just for a social. It's my choice I'd not expect any help towards travel costs and if I was asked for any that would be the end of that conversation. I don't mind chiping in towards a hotel once I'd already met the woman. |

I've never been asked to contribute towards travel expenses and I've had guys drive from the other end of the country to meet me.
Equally I always provide an upmarket hotel room for meets and don't ask for any form of payment.
Sounds like you just got a chancer OP |

Definitely a chancer and well said. I've never been asked to contribute, however equally bad I had one meet 'clearly state during meet' that he travelled an hour to meet me - which was more than his 20 mile limit, but he said he wanted to meet me - despite me paying willingly for hotel, sitter and driving 45 minutes myself to meeting point.
Needless to say what happened to him, and thinking about it afterwards just made me feel cheap. Lesson learned here too |

No way. It would be down to him to cover the costs. Unless you pre-arranged some fancy / swanky / expensive hotel, then maybe !!! Just maybe you should chip in too. I'm a bit old fashioned and I always pay. |

I don't drive so it's inevitably the guy who will end up travelling to me. This is why I only meet local guys, 20 miles or so, as I wouldn't expect anyone to travel a long distance for me. Also think it increases the chance of getting stood up if they can't be bothered to drive a long way.
I nearly always provide the drinks and they usually stay at mine so think it's a pretty fair deal. |

The man has more neck than a cow has foofoo.
Before Butterfly I would drive all over to meet sometimes even go to Lancashire! I would never have the brass neck to ask for Petrol money.
Shocked that someone would ask! |

"Yes I would insest, if they had come a long way. Or I'd buy the drinks, personally I think there's gonna be a bit of give and take." i completly agree with the give and take and sharing. If someone has travelled to me i make it nice for them but if they cant afford to put petrol in the car they shouldnt be travelling. In fact the reason i want to make sure everything is nice and i appreciate they have travelled. Nothing to do with the cost of the petrol
