Guy refuses to hang out with leech friends after footing the bill for countless dinners, prioritizes his ‘financial boundaries’ instead of their conditional friendship

We've all been in this guy's position at one point in our lives. Your wide-eyed "friends" stare off into the distance when the restaurant bill is dropped off at the table. You wonder why you didn't request separate checks at the beginning of the feast, and now, your wallet will take the hit as a result of your dinner guests' inability to pay for themselves.

Putting your foot down when it comes to finances is easier said than done when you are also forced to realize that your friends are using you as a personal piggy bank. This realization is never fun, but it might save you a large sum of cash in the long run. Conditional friendships are not friendships at all if you really think about it, so you'll be sparing your paycheck and your mental health.

The guy in this next story explains that he's decided to stop hanging out with his friends, who tend to mooch off of him whenever they grab dinner as a group. It's one thing if he was the friend who insisted that he put his card down so he could cash in on some credit card points, but they don't even pay him back. Multiple unfulfilled Venmo requests later, the man has had enough. When he puts his foot down, he's met with some S-tier entitlement from is so-called "friends".
