[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I do not know but people not paying their share annoys me.

One friend suggested we go out for another friend’s birthday. When it came time to pay he had “lost” his Visa, and his ATM card also didn’t “work.” He never paid me back. This wasn’t an accident because he did similar things other times.

When I would go on trips with one friend group, I made sure I was never in charge of accepting payment. One friend, according to others, would delay payment or never pay.

One time I paid for the AirBNB in advance and the friend who was always late with paying arrived a day late and later said they should not have to pay as much since they were not there one evening. 😱 I had already paid 1/4, which was the amount all 4 of us had agreed to months prior. This was the same person who chose one of the most expensive places to visit and wouldn’t consider cheaper places.

After that, I had had enough of group trips.

But I went on another and fronted more than $1,000, expecting the worst. And that newer friend paid me back right away. I was floored. She was like, of course, I’m paying you back right away. My trust for her increased.

[b]I pay back asap and have decided I’ll never be in charge of accepting payment if I can help it. [/b]

+1. I hate being indebted to others, so I pay back quickly as well. As for collecting money, I shouldn't have to hound a bunch of adults to pay back.

Even though it isn't exactly the same, this is part of the reason why I quit being the room mom, because begging parents to contribute is just awful. I rather donate to the class on my own.[/quote]
