She ordered a Curry and hasn’t paid me

This. Who doesn’t have at least one of online banking, PayPal, Google Pay, Apple Pay ? I’m old and I’ve got 3 of those.

Keep us updated op. Don’t let her get away with not paying.

Umm, did you mean 'naania' world? The naans are plentiful there.

Her reply sounds like more fun and games, doesn't it? I'd say, "In my account would be great, thanks." Then move on. It's not worth more aggravation when you probably won't get the money back anyway.

She sounds like a total flake. Who would do this to a friend just to get a free takeout meal, especially when free dinner was offered anyway? Did she really think you wouldn't get it?

You might want to check your purse, home and accounts to be sure she didn't help herself to anything else.

😂😂😂

I think your original comment is getting lost though as it comes across more preachy with each post. Yes certainly if you're making the assumption that someone else is paying then ‘filling your boots’ is totally wrong, but that is not necessarily just a portion size issue but a cost per item issue (you could order a modest sized lobster dish which costs a small fortune).

Surely you’ve got some calories to count this afternoon?

Great. I wasn't offering any diet advice. Be big, be small, be teeny tiny, be massive, be whatever you want. But don't demand that everyone who doesn't accept your absolute delusion has issues.

All I want to know is... did the friend pay up?

I'm really not interested. This is my last post to you as you're not able to take a hint. Nobody wants your 'diet' advice, you've been asked to stop and you won't. That's up to you but I don't owe you my precious chatting-shit time.

Who? I've stated already I'm not teeny tiny nor am I a teeny tiny eater. A teeny tiny eater would not be ordering Indian takeout full stop.

Let's break it down shall we.

The guest's food cost more. It's fair to assume the guest ordered one of the mains plus rice and TWO naans. So even if she assumed she was being treated she ordered more than a meal. Which is pretty rude.

When this was queried posters jumped on the bandwagon with the competitive undereating jibes and astonishingly claiming that this is NOT a large order and thinking it is suggests an eating disorder. It's nothing to do with appetite. It's a huge meal for anyone.

Not at all relevant to the thread but if you wet the naan and then put it under the grill it's nice. Not as nice as fresh but much better than just reheated.

I don't think they are teeny-tinies. I think they'd like to be...

You don't care what anyone eats? I thought you ran a successful weight loss programme?
🤔confused

Exactly this….

if you can give it out…..then learn to take it

I would agree with you if it wasn't for the fact that the teeny-tiny jibes have only been made in response to the how on earth could you possibly eat that enormous amount of food jibes.

Personally, I think neither is nice but if you make "what a pig" jibes, you should expect jibes back.

Honestly, I can’t believe you are still saying I don’t care what anyone eats whilst still saying it’s not normal, it’s ridiculous, it’s a massive amount, blah blah!

MYOB!

Definitely a CF and should pay half.
I am also thinking, she had to go and get her own wine/the drinks!?(I would have had wine/soft drinks and nuts/crisps out) even if I was not drinking.
Nothing seems to have been prepared.

Was she irritated maybe?
Thought, ok lets just get a curry. She said "x lives near you" had she gone out of her way to see you?
Who kept leftovers?

It depends on what happened. It sounds a bit unprepared tbh.
But I voted YANBU.

I don't care what anyone eats.

I find it ridiculous that pointing out (and it wasn't me as I already stated it was irrelevant to this thread) that it's a weird and massive order meant the person had food issues, was a teeny tiny eater or whatever. That is bollocks.

But why did you even feel the need to tell people anything like that? No one asked you?

what isn’t normal, is you being the food police on the internet.

You’re the issue here.

It's a 'cheeky fucker'.

I need to know more about 'spaghetti and tyre'... I could definitely add that to my repetoire.

I haven't made any assumptions about posters.

I'm saying it's not normal oor appropriate to order multiple sides. Even if the guest assumed she was being treated she should not have done this. Similarly to how I wouldnt order the most expensive whiskey or steak on the menu if I was being taken out.

But then people started arguing that saying that's a lot of food indicated a teeny tiny eater, food issues, competitive under eating and loads of other bollocks. That is totally normal so long as it's not all the time.

Its utterly bananas to not realise that's a weird order of food, like getting a spare desert or pizza with your three course meal.

Sorry, off-topic but what is a CF? I see this a lot but can't work out what it is 🙄

Er, no. We don't all live in towns.
