How do I let my bf let me pay for him?

So today I got some big news about something (I'll spare you the details) but my bf invited me for dinner in a very expensive restaurant to celebrate. Now I'm cool with him buying chipotle for me but this is way too expensive. His parents make literally 2% of what mine make. I kinda would wanna pay for him (or at least myself). But he won't let me do that. He says it's demascualting and pathetic for a guy.

What can I do here?
Just let him treat you if he wants to treat you. later on return the favor by planning a nice date for him or something it doesn't necessarily have to be because he took you to some fancy restaurant it could be because he's cool.

let him pay for dinner, don't make an issue of it and don't mention the cost again..
be gracious and say thank you for a lovely evening when it's over..

It's gonna be a great time I just don't want to put a burden on his financial situation

put it out of your mind and enjoy yourself..
if you want to order something inexpensive thats fine, just be discreet about it..

Be gracious and accept.
It is obvious that this means a lot to him and I am sure the cost is the last thing on his mind.

Let him pay. Its not about the money. He actually wants to do something for you. If you feel its hard on his budget then after you could buy him something or try to return the favor, but let him do this one thing for you. It probably means a lot to him

Huh, he's not a very open minded individual. My girl used to buy me stuff every time, and so did I. There's nothing demeaning about your loved one buying things, regardless of anything.

Be insistent !
You are an independent woman who knows how to treat her man and you insist on showing him !!
(if you put it like that it's hard for him to argue ! 😉)

Let him pay just be happy you're dating a guy who cares about you and wants to do things right and sometime in the future take him out someplace and buy

@jollufuxer: choose not so expensive restaurants

@JosephStalin: he chose it not me

@jollufuxer: then make an excuse about restaurant and choose another that wouldn't hurt his budget
