The other people's reactions were also odd - the first reaction to hearing someone say they'll pay for a hotel instead of buy a house with a guest room is discuss the cost of the hotel? Is that just a Canadian thing I don't know about? It sounds like the friend group also all share the same idea that you are expected to provide for lodging when a friend visits. The only context where that sort of obligation even slightly makes sense to me is if your parents are visiting.
- ghaff 6y agoThe funny thing to that reply is that it's my dad who feels really strongly about paying for accommodations if I or my brother visit him. But, yeah, absent some serious wealth disparity it seems weird and, even then, it would probably be something I'd throw off with a line like "I have more credits at that hotel than I know what to do with" or something like that to avoid anyone being embarassed.
