i think the guy should pay. but i've read in a woman's mag that if the man pays for dinner and you go to a movie afterwards. it would be nice if the woman paid for the tics or popcorn/drinks/candy. i'm giving a guy i have a date with a red rose from my Daddy's rose bush.

For this discussion, let us agree to the “rule” that the person that initiates the date pays for it.
Here is a test for the women.
You invite a man for dinner at a nice restaurant. Things are going very well until the desert is served. Then your date says something like, “I joined DH because my wife doesn’t understand me.” Are YOU going to pick up the tab? Please explain your answer.

A real gentleman would NEVER let a lady pay. 
A REAL gentleman would not insult a lady by insinuating that he was LETTING her pay if she was the one who initiated the invitation and expected to pay for it.
That being said; When asked to date, if I wish to except, I usually do so with the condition that I pay.
But consider: If you invite a guy to join you for an evening and you have made reservations already, is it fair to expect the man to pay for an evening in which he has no say in where you are going and what you are doing?
I personally would politely decline the invitation as I dislike surprise $1200 dinners.

I have asked men out on dates before, and if I ask I am willing to pay, but most men are gentlemen and will not let me.
Bottom line...Whoever asks should be prepared to pay.
and if I found out he was married, I would not pay! I would be gone so quick!

i have no problem with paying for the date if i initiated the date. i don't mind going dutch either. if a guy asks me out i would assume unless he stated other wise that he would be the one paying for the date.

I bring money when I go out, even ask to look at the check and get the wallet out prepared to pay my share or even theres. I usually do not end up paying the first couple of dates even if I offer.

Do you like boys?
Don't worry about me honey.. thanx for your sincere concern.
as I stated.. I Don't Think It Should Be Based On Gender.
I think this thread is the rudest I have ever seen.
asking a question that only has one answer is lame.
btw asking who should pay means you should in my book. just rude.
uhhh who do you think should pay for the engagement ring? duh doy dur
