If we do go out to dinner and my part of the bill is more expensive, I always split based on what we got. I’ll usually suggest something easy and inexpensive, like going for a walk or getting ice cream after work. It’s important to me to maintain those relationships, so I block off a couple evenings each week to get together. I’m in my late 20s, and I try to be sensitive to the fact that some of my friends are still in school or have jobs that pay less than mine.
