I support to go dutch, If we go dutch, you would not be worry about your bread in the coming few days after a dinner party for we share the meal and split the cost among all of us. In this way, when we share the joys, the pay is also shoulder by we all, no one will gain extra advantage by unfair means and also no one will suffer losses.

There’s a word, ‘Between friends all is common’, but in my opinion, In normal times, we should always rely on our own effort in economy, go dutch can help us to learn how to manage our wallet.

In family, wife should also have some income, women shouldn’t always fall back on their husband, but also should rely on themselves. We won’t divide the property clearly.
