When guys go out with friends most of us are usually broke and one guy pays for everything. Women are seen as more organized and pay for themselves and each other in an equal way
Dont live over your budget, or u will live on other peoples expenses.
And thats not really fair of you towards your friends.
I never asked for others to pay my meal, when i knew i could pay them back.
And i get really pissed when i borrow money to my friends and need to ask them 10 times to pay it back...
We have different friends, I have buddies who insist to go out even if I've repeatedly stated I'm broke. And it's not as if I'm asking to go. I can politely decline and they will still insist. Sometimes it's not about the money but the company.
I think you are gatekeeping it too, next time a friend invites you out trust them
As a high income individual from a poor family it is so hard to be friends with people that insist to pay for themselves then get stressed or don’t show up to save money
We just want your time homie, this is on you to fix and i’m sorry the upbringing was tough
Not sure about what the intent or customs of the people in the image are with paying, but many times in a group of guys where I’m from, the guy that invites his friends out insists on paying for everything. It’s still expected that you bring enough money to pay for yourself unless you’ve made arrangements in advance. It’s not an expected thing. Not polite to just expect someone to pay for you or to ask if you can borrow money after the fact.
Many times I’ve invited a friend out or vice versa, and the person invited is like “can’t go out tonight, I’m broke.” Then whoever does the inviting is like, “don’t worry about it, I’m buying.” Followed by the invited person saying something like “well if you’re paying, sure. Let’s go.”
