How much is too much?

Agreed.

He had to have known what kind of price range he was looking at before he took her there.

When I was dating, I always made sure I had enough cash on me to at least cover myself in the event of an emergency. Of course the guy always paid, but my thing was "if I can't afford it, I won't order it."

A few years ago, a sister of mine got asked out by some dude she was crushing on from class. They went to Sunday brunch at a pretty upscale restaurant in a hotel. When the bill came, she slowly prepared to get cash out to pay for her share (allowing him time to whip out his credit card). Well, he offered to pay of course.

A few minutes later, their server came back and his card was DECLINED. My sister ended up taking care of the bill. Dude was so embarassed that he stopped showing up to class for the rest of the semester (it was early December)...which was okay, because she never bothered to call him again.
