Need some input re: splitting the bill.

[pewtertm]

I'm always on a budget so I just pay my share...I have friends who'll think nothing of dropping 20-30 bucks on a meal when I stick with the cheapest 8 dollar meal...so no 'splitting' for me. I pay my portion, and my portion of the tip. I don't think it's fair to ask someone to cover your extra costs...if you want a pricier option, then pay for it yourself.
