This is off isn't it?

[coulditbeme2323]

Husband and I loaned another couple a significant amount of money as if we didn't their dream home would have fallen through. All properly drawn up, and to be fair was for a short period of time as in just under 3 months.

All paid back two weeks ago as agreed (no interest by the way as it might matter) and friend text saying we want to take you our to dinner to say thanks.

Didn't expect or want that, but lovely gesture.

Went to a very nice place Saturday and other husband said to my husband I'll get the food and you get the wine/drinks. Now to put into context the wine/drinks were about 35% of the bill so other couple paid 65%.

Now it's not the money, and it was a lovely evening, and I would never mention to my friend, but is that a bit cheeky?

Millionaires bitching about paying for the drinks, is a bit like two bald men fighting over a comb.

How much money they have makes absolutely no difference here. It doesn’t matter how much money you have, you are still entitled to respectful and kind treatment from your friends.

Most of my friends earn similar to me, we can all afford to buy the drinks or pay for ourselves or whatever. But if I’ve done a bunch of childcare for someone, or helped them out when their car was the garage, and they say they’ll take me out for dinner as a thank you then I expect them to pay. The fact that I can afford to pay makes no difference. At all.

The OP did a big favour for her friends, they offered dinner as a thank you. Then stuck OO and her husband with half the bill. That’s not ok, and how much money you have doesn’t matter and doesn’t change it.

You just not have much empathy, or maybe you just don’t have any money so it brings out the worst in you when someone else has it. That’s not a good quality to have.

The level of entitlement from some posters here is incredible and the irony totally lost on them.

Op can be as rich as can be. Doesn't mean she can be ripped off.
Next time they need a loan tell them to buggar off.
