Generous Host Insulted After Unappreciative Guest Sends Venmo Request for Cheap Snack

Money can ruin relationships in about a million different ways. It's that thing no one wants to talk about, and yet being transparent and openly discussing money could probably save people from so much awkwardness. When u/FixConstant8266 hosted a couple friends from out of town for a few nights, they showed everyone a great time. OP drove their friends around, offered them meals, drinks, and a tour of the city. One of OP's friends bought a few things here and there—cheap muffins from the grocery store and a $5 parking fee to be exact—and OP assumed their friend was being a polite guest by pitching in a little bit. 

When the trip was over, OP was shocked to find a Venmo request for $6 from their friend. Where's the sense of etiquette? It's one thing to be a transactional sort of person, but OP's friend basically chose to ignore the fact that OP had been a generous host all week without expecting a thing in return. If OP wanted to be transactional about the situation, it would be the friend owing money, not OP. Keep scrolling for the mildly infuriating story.
