A recent outing to a fancy restaurant with her sister turned into a financial fiasco for one Reddit user. The sister, who had recently moved closer, invited her sibling to dinner, along with her boyfriend. Despite some initial reservations about the high prices, they decided to go as a family.
As they sat down to enjoy their meal, everything seemed normal. However, things took a strange turn when it was time to pay the bill. The sister and her boyfriend suddenly excused themselves to the bathroom and never returned. The Reddit user was left stunned, wondering how her sister could so blatantly ditch the bill.
The Redditor attempted to contact her sister, but she didn’t respond. With no other choice, the Redditor warned her sister that she needed to return and settle the bill or face potential legal action. When her sister failed to comply, the Redditor reluctantly paid for her and her husband’s portion of the meal.
The next day, the sister called, expecting the Redditor to cover the entire bill. However, the Redditor stood firm, reminding her sister that she had never agreed to pay for everyone. The sister’s audacity left the Redditor and many Reddit users shocked and outraged.
Reddit users overwhelmingly supported the Redditor’s stance, labeling her sister’s behavior as scammy and manipulative. Many emphasized that in group dining situations, the bill is usually split unless someone volunteers to pay. The Redditor’s decision to pay only for her and her husband’s portion was seen as fair and reasonable.
