This statistic depicts the results of a survey conducted in November 2018 in Japan asking male individuals about their honest opinion on having to pay for everything or more than half when they are eating out during a date. The survey revealed that the majority of respondents paying for at least half of the sum during dates felt content with the decision. In contrast, two percent of respondents stated they actually wish that their date would pay for everything.
