The best show I’ve seen in the last few years is Pantheon. It’s an animated sci-fi about the implications of…

…and it totally blew my mind. The show’s only shortcoming is that when the writers knew the show was being cancelled, they crammed multiple seasons worth of story into like two episodes. I can see why they did it, though, because the ending is pretty satisfying.
Personally I only really started enjoying the TV show when I stopped comparing it to the movie. I enjoyed both, but for different reasons.
If he paid just for your stuff and not your friends’, he’s definitely trying to show that he is interested in you. His interest could be romantic and/or sexual. Have fun, but don’t do anything you might regret if it’s only the latter.
Paying for a date and a few books is pretty harmless, if somewhat old-fashioned in a lot of cultures. But maybe he just thinks that’s what he’s supposed to do. However, if he also starts buying you expensive gifts early on in the relationship, be very careful, especially if he’s a bit older than you! That’s the MO of so-called “lover boys” that like to lure girls into prostitution. Eventually he’ll demand something in return and it’s only downhill from there.
