2. Sasha Bordeaux -- although he did buy her dinner in expensive restaurants practically every night for many months -- but that was because she was his professional bodyguard and they went everywhere together. (One of Rucka's stories started with her thinking about the irony regarding how most of the women she knew would love to be able to say "Bruce Wayne buys me dinner all the time, and I sleep in stately Wayne Manor every night!")
3. Black Canary (again, I could be forgetting something).
4. Rachel Dawes.
As to Barbara Gordon and Wonder Woman, I'm having trouble remembering the details of the Silver Age story in which they both seemed to be in love with Batman . . . then it turned out they were faking as part of a plot to catch Copperhead . . . then it turned out they were sincere after all . . . was there any "dating" per se taking place? (On the other hand, I think DCAU Babs was definitely "dating" Bruce at some point, as shown in flashbacks in the Batman Beyond movie "Return of the Joker," right?)
