答案 Clearer Bills, Clearer Budgeting As a common practice between friends, going Dutch is popular among college students since it is a workable and fair way of splitting the bills. However, when it comes to going Dutch between lovers, some people consider it unacceptable and even disastrous, worrying that it may even destroy a relationship. As far as I am concerned, those against going Dutch between lovers worry too much. Personally, I believe that going Dutch should be encouraged among college lovers since most of them are economically dependent and going Dutch can give them a better sense of budgeting. First of all, it is better for college lovers to split their bills due to their economic dependence. As students, college lovers usually do not have much money except for the pocket money they get from their parents and a small amount of salary earned from part-time jobs. Dating, however, can be very expensive for students especially when it involves romantic restaurants and decent cinemas. It is highly likely that whoever shouldering the responsibility of financing the dates would be under great economic, pressure. And since relationships in college are not usually supported by parents, college students. will have to face the pressure all by themselves. This not only may cause great anxieties in both life and study for the students involved, but also would make the relationship more vulnerable because quarrels may arise, revolving economic issues. Things would be much easier if the couples simply split their bills and call it even. Secondly, going Dutch can give college lovers a better sense of budgeting. By splitting their bills, college lovers would be able to keep clearer track of how much money they are spending individually instead of leaving their budget in a chaotic status, which might happen if the bills are always treated carelessly and paid randomly. When they are more aware of where their money is going, they would naturally have a better plan of spending different amount of money on different purposes. In this way, college lovers would solve the problem of wasting money and avoid unnecessary personal financial crises. They may even save more money to spend on books and extracurricular activities. In this regard, going Dutch is apparently beneficial to cultivating the students’ sense of budgeting. As a conclusion, I believe that going Dutch should be encouraged among college lovers for the sake of their economic status and budgeting skill.
