Money Moral Dilemma: Is it mean to question my share of the bill?

Lizid2017

i too am in your situation, for years i moaned in silence but now, when out with the girls we remove the alcohol from the bill and they share that then we divide the food bill

better still when on holiday,( and you can sort it when sober) one person pays the bill at the restaurant and then does a sharing up the next day- it means people are free to have starters and /or puds, gin and tonics etc and it works out fairer to non drinkers/one course eaters.

mixed company more complicated as men won,t normally complain but drink more to make up for paying for the non drinker!!

That is the sort of typical bullying behaviour and response from the sort of person we encounter.

It's not "a few quid" - and if I've only got a few quid then it's the difference between going out or not.

Quite often I've been out and tossed £10 on a table, having spent £8, where the split bill would've been £40. That is a FORTUNE to a lot of people.

Only a bully would go out expecting those with less to subsidise their lifestyle without a by your leave.... it's a special level of "expectation" and sense of entitlement.

I'd not care if eyes rolled... my eyes would have already been rolling when you had the AUDACITY to expect me to pay for YOUR choices.

If you can't afford to pay your own way, stay at home!

Bullying, you keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
