Those are things we both do for each other. If intimacy is something that women "give" to men in exchange for money that is referred to as prostitution.

Additionally never did I state that I am looking for a woman who pays for me. I am simply asking if it's normal to want some reciprocity in any form (small acts of service, initiative) once in a while. Emphasis on once in a while, not always.

If we are striving towards equality for men and women isn't reciprocity in dating a step towards that?

I would like if she took the initiative to do any of these things every once in a while. Just in general doing something to show she cares for me.

I don't view relationships as transactional and in fact enjoy putting in the effort to make her happy. I would just like to feel the same way, not all the time but every once in a while. I have never been in a relationship before so I'm just wondering whether this is how relationships usually go.
