Dating a starving artist...what do you think?

So, I decided to date an artist. I've been dating those scholars in my life. They all were very intelligent, athletic, talented and had some artistic sides. We got along well cause I also have those characters as well. But, at the end, we just were not meant to be. Now, I've met this person who stumbles over the rent. I offered to pay our dinner 2x which I really didn’t' mind. He offered to cook but I thought that was too much of hassle. He promised me to cook for the next date. So far, he seems to be a cool (although I only met him twice)...most of all, he is very talented and has similar interest in art and music as mine. I am wondering if I should give more tries with this person...or just move on? Of note, he gave me his art for the price of the dinner. I thought that was “very” nice of him. Another note. I’ve met him on the internet-dating site. Yes, I am very cautious with this and thus would like to know of your opinions.

Thanks.

PS: He strongly stated to take the profile out from the site if I agree to be more than friends (after the 1st date!). But, I catch this person being “online”….well, I guess it is OK since I told him that we can be good friends that he is searching further…?! Then, what about cooking for me?!

Well if you won't mind being his "mother" then go on with the relationship. I am concerned that he is really a struggling artist. It could strain your relationship later on. I don't know, it is complicated when money comes in the picture. If you have doubts I suggest you just end it now.

Not sure what your question is, exactly, but cooking dinner for someone is really not a hassle. Personally I'd much rather cook someone a dinner than go to a restaurant (I hate restaurants, and I love cooking).
