e key, though, is commu-
ation. Decide in advance
o'll pay. There's nothing
ng with a man asking a worn-
to split the cost — but don't

you're doing dinner and a
vie, one can spring for the food

sharing the cost as
they went along.
As it turned out, his
feelings about money
were a lot like his thoughts
about other things: too inflexi-
