Answer 1

the only way to really know a person's culture is to talk about it.  japanese girls are not expected to pay while on a date.  you can go "dutch" if you both agree.

Answer 2

She probably doesn't even like you.  I think she just didn't want to hurt your feelings so she hangs out with you. But she pays and opens her own doors for herself so that way it doesn't look like you guys are on a date or are a couple. Why don't you just ask her what's up?

Answer 3

In traditional Japanese lifestyle the women play the role of house keeper so Im not exactly sure why she is paying your way maybe she is just being nice.
