[quote=Anonymous]I will be attending a milestone birthday dinner for a relative in a few weeks that they planned. There will likely be about eight other attendees--all family. All guests are in different financial positions, and I am being particularly cautious/frugal with my resources currently. I plan to ask for a separate bill for my meal but want to pay toward the guest of honor's meal. Should I ask ahead of the party if others plan to contribute toward the guest of honor's dinner, or should I decide what I will contribute, $25, and leave it be? I don't want to be tacky, but at the same time, I like to plan. I would hate for the guest of honor, who is single, to be stuck paying any portion of their bill, but $25 is my limit, plus a gift. What is the best approach?[/quote]
