Do you split the bill with your friends?

Post by SavySallySupersedes »

Honestly, I measure the depth/sincerity of a friendship by the willingness of a friend to split the bill. I have some friends where we don't split the bill. I have other friends where we ALWAYS split the bill. There was this one time I tried Korean BBQ with my coworkers and their friends, and there were 10 of us. The bill was like $200 something without the tip. Obviously, we split the bill because it was way more cost-effective.

So, are you more inclined to split the bill or just pay for your own meal? For me, if I really like you and enjoy the time I spend with you, I would want to. If I just met you, then, no.

If it was a date, I would probably split the bill too.

So, ladies and boys, would you split the bill if it was a date? Would you split the bill if it was a friendly gathering?

savy, never let a female pay for anything if she is with you; friend or someone your seeing.
As for splitting the bill, yes it makes things easier on everyone.

Ignore the fools above us^^^^ I personally would always pay for females regardless on date or not!, as for friends it depends on their financial circumstances!

You must on budget if you are too worried about paying 100 night out with friends. To avoid the awkward situation i usually pull my credit card before anybody and lay it in the table. Now some smart ass will try to put on a show and insist on paying even-though there were all quite before I pulled the credit card :pac:

Hey, it's totally okay! My username was super random. Did you really join Snet in 2003? Dude, I was in 7th grade in 2003. :ohhh:

Actually, I am! I'm not working right now, so I can't blow money quite like I used to. My friends and I always go to this sushi place, but only during happy hour and we only order off of the happy hour menu. :troll:

I don't think you and I could get along. I hate when guys do things for me. "Boy, I am a strong, independent, black woman who don't need no man!" A couple of days ago, this Somali guy offered me a ride home. I said no because I don't ride in cars with boys. So, he waited with me for 25 minutes until my bus got there. I was like :snoop:

No, I don't drink. I've never even tasted alcohol. Yo, sushi can be expensive. $3.50 for a salmon roll? Hell yeah, we're eating there! Most of the menu is half-off during happy hour. :myman:

We keep separate checks. No need for me to subsidize someone's booze. It also prevents those awkward moments when someone comes up short.

If its a date, we take rotations or split the bill.


BlackRain,

Happy Hour is an American networking essential. 25 cent wings, $1 drafts :eat:
