Retroactive family charge There is a distinction between a gift and a debt. A gift produces an asymmetry. A genuine gift produces an asymmetry; you can’t immediately ‘give back’ or repay, and that’s part of what makes it genuine. It’s not something you’re expected to pay for.

There is no world where an invitation to dinner means you can invite everyone you want over and have their check covered. I think the birthday girl thought that if she didn’t say anything, her sister wouldn’t notice she was paying for eleven more people. But well, it didn’t go as planned. She did notice.

By now, we should all know that no is a full sentence. Of course, with family, sometimes that might get a little messy.
