[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Everyone seems to be missing what's rude here. They are in college, so he's an adult. How has this man eaten multiple restaurant meals at OP's house and not once offered to pay? High school I'd give him a pass. But college?[/quote]

I wouldn't expect a college student to pay for their own meals nor my kids but he should know better at that age.  [/quote]
I wouldn't accept it, but I can afford it...and I still think it would be pretty rude not to offer. When we were dating, DH always offered to contribute to meals even though we were grad student who could barely afford rice and beans and my parents are UMC wealthy. They didn't accept, but it's good manners.

And I assume he hasn't offered to pay, because it would be a huge oversight on OP's part not to mention that. That being said, I think OP should address this with her DD. If the BF is hungrier than what they want to buy from a restaurant, the college-aged kids are capable of making pasta, salad, etc. I don't think it's fair for OP to have to do this, since it sounds like they are ordering takeout because they are busy and don't want to cook everyday.[/quote]
