Drama!

By RUFckingSrs - 22/12/2015 02:42 - United States - San Francisco

Today, my friends and I were going to Applebee's. A girl we don't like invited herself along. She waited for my friend outside of the bathroom, forced her to drive her, and said, "It's okay someone will pay for me." She then ate off of everyone's plate and left before the bill came. FML

Today, my date unexpectedly brought her friend to dinner with us. They seemed bored of me after ten minutes and left me out of their conversation for the rest of the night. Oh, and they made me pay for both of them. FML

Today, I invited my girlfriend to go eat out, hoping to put her in a really romantic mood. She decided to tell her friend, who then invited herself and another couple along. I ended up being made fifth wheel, and had to sit alone at an adjacent table. FML

Useful friends

Today, after having a fight with my BFF, she invited me to come along to a party. I found out later that she'd only invited me so that when returning from the event, we could take a taxi and split the cost. FML

Today, I took a friend out for what I thought was date. After dinner was over and I paid, she pulled the bill out and wrote her name phone number on it for the waiter. FML

Today, I wanted to take my girlfriend to a nice dinner before prom. Her parents followed her in, and joined us to "keep an eye on me." They interrupted all our conversations, ate an expensive meal, then got up and walked out when the waitress brought the $95 check, leaving me to pay for it. FML

Today, I went on a date with a girl my friend set me up with. I thought we got along great, until after dessert, when I asked if she'd be interested in doing this again. She just said, "Nahhh" then got up and casually left, stiffing me on the bill. FML

Today, I was at a goodbye dinner with friends before I move back to America. A friend called to cry over relationship problems she refuses to fix. While I was outside trying to politely get off the phone, my friends ate and drank everything I'd ordered and closed the bill. FML

Today, I went out to eat with a friend. I was supposed to be paying, but when I tried to, there wasn't enough money in my bank account. She didn't have money with her either. FML

Tonight on First Dates

Today, I went on a date that went well, until the bill came and she quickly shoved it in my direction, then went to the loo. Rude, but I thought nothing of it… until our waiter took pity and told me I’m the fourth guy she’s had this week who'd been made to pay for her. I paid half, then went home. FML

Today, my "best friend" invited me to drink with her and a couple other friends. She told me to "just bring a few bucks for beer". When I got there, no one else had brought money, including her. They only invited me because I'm the only one with a job. FML

And you guys put up with this behavior why exactly?

I started off thinking "poor girl, people don't want her there." Now I can understand why. Maybe you need to explain to her why it's not acceptable?

I hate when people do that. I found out once that one of my colleagues used our tip money to cover her portion of the bill.

What? Nah, you all are to blame. How did she "force" someone to take her after you knew she wasn't paying? And why did you let her eat off you plates? That's on you.

Maybe you should have told her to **** off. I've been stuck in situations like that before.

No one can force you to do anything unless they have a weapon or use strength against you, are a govt. or state official, or own your residence. Didn't have to drive her, should've been more careful watching your plate or scolded her for it, especially after she said she wasn't going to pay for herself so what are you actually surprised about?

Look at all that positive reinforcement you and your friends gave her! If you guys know she's like that, one of you should have been mature enough to say "I'm sorry, but you weren't invited"

Am I the only one wondering how she was able to leave before the bill came if she "forced" someone to give her a ride? From the way this FML is worded, if she had her own way of getting there, she would have just met up with you and your friends anyway. And since nobody had the balls to tell her she wasn't invited, she'd see no problem doing that. It sucks not having friends, but people like her need to hear it loud and crystal clear (and sometimes repeatedly) to get the message. Either way, you all totally deserve it.

"Eating from my plate comes with dick, would you like water with that?" Shit I'd be damn if I let a coworker do that shit to me if I didn't invite her or offered some.
