You only owe him a "Thank you".

Nope. Although I do hope you didn't accept the dinner date just for the free meal and mislead the guy to do so. If you accept a date with someone - regardless of who pays - I hope it's because you want to be there with that person and not because you want to get something else out of it (free fancy meal), just the same as I would hope that he wouldn't take you out on a date just to get something else (what you're asking about possibly owning him). Both sides have an opportunity to show good or bad character here.

You don't accept a paid dinner date from a guy until he knows you better. Otherwise, he will feel taken advantage of and you will feel a gnawing sense of owing him. The sense of owing somebody is uncomfortable and you will adapt an attitude towards him of : what do you want from me? I don't owe you. -Then you will end up having a forget-the-recent-past relationship with some other guy who is totally opposite the first one and incompatible with you. It will end with you two getting into a big argument. Don't accept it or just go Dutch as has been suggested.
Being free as a bird means not having bad experiences anchoring down your daily thoughts. Otherwise; his most genuine intentions will not penetrate your petrified forest of emotions.

Melanie, Melanie, Melanie.....No you don't owe him "anything" except a "thank you for the wonderful dinner." I would only hope that you have some knowledge of the character of the guy before you even date him. If you think that he is going to expect "something" later....why would you even want to go out with him knowing he's using a fancy dinner as a bargaining tool. Of course with your leggy picture....maybe you are hoping we all say "yes" to give you justification?

The real answer:
You owe him the courtesy of being pleasant company and gratitude for the meal. But if you're implying if you owe him anything physical, of course not.
The realistic answer:
Like anything else you continue to get what you pay for. Most guys are entertaining you in the hopes of something more, so over time more will ask yo out if they think they are likely to get it.
Bottom line: Don't do it out of gratitude, do it to keep getting fancy dates.

A pleasant conversation and a polite good night.
Anything more should depend on his personallity and conversation which should be the same as if he had brought a picnic or hot dogs from a stand. He got your attention with dinner - that is his reward, nothing more.

The fact that your asking this stupid question say a lot about you as a person.
1. You are either very stupid or have a very low self esteem.
2. Judging from your pic (legs) you love the attention of sex appeal and love to flaunt it in guys face
3. The consequence of the previous statement is guys seeing you as a sex object
Gain some self respect, obviously you owe him a thank you only. Anything beyond that is between you and him.
Please vote thumbs down!

No you don't owe him anything but the pleasure of your company at dinner. A thank you for dinner is the norm.

A gentleman only invites a lady to have dinner with him in order to enjoy the presence of her company. Both of you can have a pleasurable meal and say a fond farewell with a sincere "Thank you" from you, his guest, and a delightful "You're welcome" from the guy who extended the invitation. You owe him absolutely NOTHING more!!!!

Mel, Let me tell you I always pay for my dinners, even if he asked out.
I simply don't trust men who say they'll pay for my food, and not pay or want me to pick the cheapest thing.
One time I ordered a $1 orange juice mind you, and he said he would pay for it, and treat me out. The J7*()@ got up and told me let's go that he didn't have any money. On top of that the pig wanted sex afterwards!!!!!!!!

You technically do not ought to "owe" him something...yet thanking him for dinner is the polite difficulty to do except he became jerk. besides the undeniable fact that, he could anticipate something else out of you yet what you do is largely at your discression.
