[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Never happened to me. Maybe I don't get invited to enough events. LOL.

"I’m standing up for all guests who are tired of this trend. Call it my #guestsdontpay protest."

From Washington Post:

This is standard to pay for your meal and split the birthday person's meal in my social circle. I am happy to be included and have no issue paying for my meal plus the birthday celebrants. [/quote]

Same here. If I'm invited to a restaurant for a birthday with a group (not just like us an another couple), I assume everyone pays their own way and chips in for the birthday person.

Then again, I don't get invited out a lot, so it's not a big dent in my overall annual spending.[/quote]

Me too. I like going out and spending time with my friends.  If it was a non birthday organized group dinner I am always prepared to pay for myself. When it's someones birthday, I just assume that each person pays for their meal and our collective gift to the birthday person is to pay for their meal too.
