I have a spanish friend here in the Dominican Republic.  Last week I told him that I was going
to a nearby town and he said, “me invitas?”  I said
I’m going to just spend the whole day sitting in store using the internet.  He said again,
“me invitas?”  I said well if you want to go, you can go with me.  When
we were on the bus, he said that since I invited him I should pay for
all of his food and drink and his pasaje.  I refused.  Is this behavior acceptable in spain
or should I watch out for this guy?

Dominican Republic you would make less then what we would in spain , i think this would not be had ... are would it happen , people pay there own way unless you pay one dinner and he will buy the next one

No, Spacer, this sort of behaviour is most certainly NOT acceptable in Spain, or indeed anywhere else.  This person is a “caradura y va de gorra”, not to mention he is a free-loader. 

You don’t need this kind of “friend”.

All the best
