Herb and many others know how fascinating I find who pays for the bill at a restaurant. There are many blog posts I have written over time. But Business insider they have it down.
@cubicgarden who pays? a topic you know well 🙂 https://t.co/ZJcf834tZP

They have quite a few scenarios including the one I mainly refer to… the dinner date.
Whoever asked for the date pays, regardless of gender.
Although I am glad they are not falling back on the old-fashioned rules of the man must pay, there is a scenario which isn’t covered and one which is far thicker and at the heart of what I talk about. What happens when nobody formally asks the other person out, like in a blind date, internet enable date or moving from drinks to food?
The dinner with a boyfriend/girlfriend seems most apt, with an emphasise on split it evenly.
