Going Dutch is an interesting
concept known in most
english speaking countries, but unfamiliar to
Dutch people. The actual meaning is to split the costs of going out, saving the
guy a little
money, but costing the
girl an
excrutiating amount of
money compared to what she spend on her last
date (
nothing).
The origin of this
concept is
unknown. It certainly isn't a common concept in
Holland. Go
fig.
