When I first moved to SF and got “tech money” I had a group of friends and we would frequently go out, someone would order some ridiculous bottle of wine or something and it was understood that we’d all just split the tab, or occasionally even play credit card roulette just for fun. It was young people being loose with their new money, no real harm being done.
My girlfriend though, was also in this group and did NOT have “tech money”. Anytime she went out without me it became an issue, because she would order herself an app and a drink while everyone else ordered champagne and caviar and then have to sheepishly request that the group itemize the bill at the end.
No real point to my story I guess. Just a memory.
- redanddead 4y agoHow did it affect the relationship?
- rco8786 4y agoThey were always nice about it but it was also always a stark reminder that my gf was not really a full member of "the group" We're married with kids now and that group has all gone off in their own directions, so no real harm done.
