Should he pay for the first date? Should I pay for the second?

I know the rules about paying for dates..at least I think I know. Should he pay for the first date? Should I pay for the second? It seems to me that if I am making a comparable amount of money, I should be able to contribute to our nice times.

Dear Dami
I'll probably get a lot of emails from guys who want to date you. Ok, let's go over the rules of who pays for both guys and dolls"
You can make the offer to pay the tip, or half, but if he refuses, accept it. At the same time, don't make the offer unless you can make good. He just might take you up on it.
If you're going to a movie, buy the popcorn, or offer to buy him coffee and dessert afterward. Ask Him Out when the end of the evening is getting close, tell him you would like the honor of taking him out the next time and you insist on paying so he can be treated just as well as you are.
If you get to the point where you've established a relationship (whatever that means to you) you can renegotiate to something you both can live with.
