it would depend on if the service was good or not. but if the service wasn't great then the fact that he under tipped was ok. but if he didn't tip then thats a problem and he's an asshole. and if the service was great then he should of tipped generously.

If it happened only once, I would date them again if I liked them. It may be he didn't have enough money or that he doesn't know how to tip. I live where there is a 15% tip put into most bills at a restaurant. When I travel abroad I have to ask others nearby how much to tip!
You could approach the situation at a later time and discuss tipping in an informal conversation. Perhaps you would gain greater insight by talking about it; and about other more important things as well.

Strange but where I come from a tip is given for good service and is NOT compulsory, if you think your date was cheap, shame on you, he paid for your food, a cheap date would have made you pay half at least.
Maybe your date only had enough money to pay for the food, I remember once I took my girlfriend out, the bill came to more money than I had on me, I dashed out to find a friend with some cash, the days before ATM's, on checking the bill she found that 2 extra main courses had been added, and I had actually had enough money.......... that girlfriend is now my wife...hehehehe
There could be many reasons he didnt leave a big tip, try to find out why first, before you judge him

Personality doesn't speak all just because of a service tip. Don't focus on how much your date tipped the server. Just be glad that he was the one who paid the bill, he did not ask you to pay for it or borrowd money from you to pay the bill. Evaluate the whole date like; did you have fun, was he intellectually stimulating, was he a boyfriend material, etc. If you had fun there's nothing else matters. Don't spoil your chance of getting love just because of a tip.

depends on how the service was ive been on a date were it seemed like he under tipped but the service wasn't all that good, but then again they may just be cheap, my mom has been a waitress for over 20 years and i know how important tips can be for waitresses and servers so when im with a guy who under tips a good waitress i don't bother with him because i find it to be disrespectful to the server. but i would give them another chance maybe it was a one time thing.

Yes, I like people who are willing to violate conventional rules and norms, it makes them interesting. If he always didn't leave a tip, I would think he was strange, however. Also, there would be more money left available for me.

you should have spoken up at the restaurant, and brought it to their attention. maybe it was just an oversight, though. i'd give them one more chance. if it happens again, dump 'em.
