To think this is really bad form?

[Window1]

My friend has gone abroad for a long weekend with a group of other friends.

The hosting accommodation had offered them a few extra days at a reduced cost due to last minute availability.

My friend is the only one that cannot afford to do this both in time and money.

All the others are talking about how they are all up for staying on, seemingly only concerned with themselves and not any regard for my friend and the fact that her transport is with them so would have to make entirely new and additional cost arrangements to get home alone.

That's bad form isn't it? I would have expected an all for one type situation where either they all stay, or they all go.

Now it's immature and irresponsible to arrange a car share. Wow. Just wow.

Yes, to arrange a carshare for a holiday when you are stretched financially is immature and irresponsible.

Women heading off for a holiday should have access to funds to get home under their own steam. Nobody should bite off more than they can chew, financially.

I am actually amazed that you can't see the sense in what I am saying. No woman should put herself in a position where she is dependent on others should arrangements break down.

You're amazed? I'm amazed you're still trying to prove a point from Thursday last week

<span class="italic">And as for 'shouldn't travel without emergency funds' not everyone HAS that luxury! do you suggest they don't travel?</span>

Of course they can travel. What I am suggesting is that they pick a holiday destination they can afford to get back from in case arrangements go tits up. If this means not carsharing to some spot out of the country then so be it.

Yes, I am still making the point.

This is because several women here apparently think it's ok to act as if you are a dependent minor of about twelve and depend on other people to facilitate your lack of common sense, and I am still gobsmacked at that.
