Oohh the cold bitch one, yes!
My mother taught me when I was 12 that when a boy/guy tells me that he wants to buy me something small (let's say between 0,50 or 3 euro's. Like a hotdogbun or a peppermint-roll) then I have to stop him for a moment and think.
She said; 'You don't owe them anything, but they might think you do. So, look at them for a second and think to yourself; Is there ány way this can become a relationship? Ány way I might kiss him or something?"
If you are in doubt, then you can let him pay, but not anything over 3 euro's.
If you don't like the guy in that way, be immediately clear with him.
Before he pays, lean over, grab his arm gently, smile politely and say quietly to protect his privacy (but still very clearly to him) "Thanks, I just want you to know that I think of you as a good friend!"
You then nod, smile and lean back."
I asked what'd happen and she said; 'You'll realise immediately if they are good friends or not. If they are a good friend, they will thank you and buy you the peppermint-roll.'
I have done this several times, with several guys and boys, every time before they pay anything for me. Even the smallest things, like offering to share a bag of crisps or pay extra for ice in my drink.
And ever time I thanked them for being a good friend, they have done one of the following;
- Got a frozen face, stared me in the eyes angrily and said; 'Nevermind' and walked off.
- Slammed their hand on the marketstall/counter and said; 'Oh so you were leading me on?!'
- Thrown their wallet on the floor, stamped their feet and shouted; WHY WHY WHY? WHY?!!!
- Scream loudly and grab their wallet and walk away quickly, never to talk to me again
- Turn to the lady behind the counter and say loudly; 'ONLY ONE HOTDOGBUN PLEASE.' And then stare at me angrily and whisper; 'Pff pay for yourself.'
- Ask me why I'd say that and try to counterargue they were not a good friend at all. I said it was friendly of them to offer to pay and they'd say; 'Hmm..well..yeah..hm..I don't want that anymore. I'm going home.'
The last one was the friendliest, I think.
But I have never had a man actually pay for the Mars-bar or hotdogbun.
Unless you count 2 people that did, but then immediately (as I took a bite) said that they now wanted me to be their girlfriend, because they paid for me and I owed them.
None of them were real friends, all of them had other motives.

We're no strangers to love
You know the rules and so do I
A full commitment's what I'm thinking of
You wouldn't get this from any other guy
I just wanna tell you how I'm feeling
Gotta make you understand
Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
We've known each other for so long
Your heart's been aching but you're too shy to say it
Inside we both know what's been going on
We know the game and we're gonna play it
