Do you split bills when eating out with a group of friends?

I think they’re pros and cons like paying more money than the food you actually ordered. Debate I had tonight. Thoughts? I personally don’t like it because if someone racks up the bill, I don’t feel like I should have to pay part of their bill if that makes sense.

It depends honestly. Girl if we went to chilis or something, I don’t mind splitting it. But if it’s a large group of us or we went somewhere fancy and I only order $10 chicken tenders and a soda and you ordered lobster and filet mignon for $70 with an appetizer and 3 drinks I’m not
paying for that lol.

I feel you. It will be Atleast a few of us at a Mexican grill but they want to reserve a room for an occasion which is almost $150-200 to reserve (to split) but the money goes towards the total bill. gratuity with that I’m sure is added. I hate paying more than expected, but I’m usually the odd ball. Call me cheap but…yea lol
Not sure yet one of my friends received a promotion so the rest of us are planning to surprise her. It’s a special occasion that I want to partake in but I don’t want to be stuck with anything too expensive.

I've never ever been to a dinner where it was all split equally; either someone was treating the table or you paid for your own meal. If you're planning to treat one person, one person should cover their meal and everyone else Venmo them their share.

Depends. My circle is small so we just figure it out as I'm usually only with one other person. If it's a larger group like me joining a friend and their friends, I'll pay my own (maybe my friend I'm close with as well) and that's it. Lol

Am I a bitch or is she ?

So to summaries me and my bd aren’t technically tg. But he be trying to grab me and touch me when ever he comes to see our baby. I love him but I have a feeling that he talks or sees other women I just don’t trust him. Today he calls me at 5 am to pick him up he’s in the middle of town. I’m like dude wtf are you doing out rn, whatever I picked him up. And he ends up falling asleep on the couch and he receives a call and I picked it up and it was some girl that he talks to. I answer the ft like it’s him lm like hello and she thinks it’s him. Then I’m trying to talk to her but I just don’t know what to say so I end up telling her I’m his bm and she’s like oh okay, “tell him to call me when he’s up” I said “ do you guys talk” she *sighs* and hangs up.. I was shook bc why wouldn’t she want to talk to me… tf did I do to her. He’s literally my bm. Idk if I’m the bitch or her. But if I was her I would have reacted nicer.. maybe that’s just me. I wasn’t being a bitch to her on the phone. I was nervous as hell. Smh

Annoyed or upset by the new govt guidance on screen time?

I felt bad anyway when I needed to resort to teletubbies to cook or clean up....now I feel even worse.
Home alone, no village, no nursery and no nanny or babysitter in this house...I do everything! I'd rather have half an hour quiet time twice or three times a day so I can do things...
Also I guess adults can't watch their favourite sports or the news or anything anymore huh.
Parenting these days is hard enough...
