I read this happened to someone in another thread and it really could happen to anyone. What would you do if you were invited to dinner and your date didn't pay/didn't want to pay the bill? ETA: Would you pay it? Walk out without paying? How would you handle it?
lol at walk out without paying. I wouldn't do that. I would reluctantly pay- I have no other choice. I've never had that happen, but if a guy invited me to dinner and didn't want to pay, then I'm assuming he's not interested anyway and doesn't want to go out again- but that's a horrible way of handling it. At least have some class.
When I was dating I always took my credit cards with me just in case I needed to pay the bill or for a taxi ride home. I may have been stupid enough to say "Yes" to a date with a jerk, but it would be wrong to make the restaurant pay for my mistake.
I would pay the bill. This happened to me once but it wasn't done intentionally.. he'd forgotten his wallet/credit card or something, I can't remember the details now. He was mortified though, I remember that much. He was a sweet guy and he made it up to me.
I can't even imagine being on date with someone who would do that purposely. What a low thing to do!
I would pay, but I think if the guy wanted the bill split from the beginning, he should have said to the waiter, "Two checks, please."
If he didn't want to pay the bill at all, I would have said it was wrong for him to assume I was buying.
Not doing that, and then having the uncomfortable situation you describe seems like he just waited until the last minute. I would have interpreted him as an person who wasn't very upfront.

We're not even talking Dutch here. The critter we're discussing made no attempt to pay even for HIS share!
