Although my friend knows I won’t have a drink because I’m driving, she still puts a bottle of wine on the tab and drinks the whole thing herself, and then asks to split the bill 50/50 when it’s time to leave.
'My friend drinks a bottle of wine herself then insists on splitting the lunch bill' I have a close friend who I’ve known for many years and we meet up every so often for lunch and a catch-up.
For a long time, we were able to meet at a local pub and we’d always share a bottle of wine together.
Part of me wants to make an excuse not to go next time, and part of me thinks I should try to help her face her alcohol problem.
However, recently our local closed, so I started offering to drive us to another pub, which I was happy to do, and I was also fine with not having an alcoholic drink.
