It's tricky -- on the one hand, I would hate to be thought of as cheap, and again, I make more than he does (but we're almost even), but some guys take an insistence on splitting as an indication that the date didn't go well, and I wouldn't want to send that signal.

As a little experiment for the benefit of the board, can you out-and-out insist on paying tonight?
Now, clubby, should the guy be more interested because it's no longer just a financial transaction or less interested because once it's not a financial transaction he expects less? Or should Gwink lose interest because she's not gotten her dinner paid for?
