Would you be hurt?

Question

I have a group of 6 friends, all of us hang out together for each of our birthdays and go out to dinner/get food delivered. For someone's birthday everyone will chip in $20-30 so the food is paid for and the person with the birthday doesn't pay for their dinner at all. This has been happening for years.
The past few years of my birthday, only one friend will chip in and I will end up paying the rest of the food for myself and 5 other friends. Meaning on my birthday I'm paying for a big dinner bill. 
Am I wrong for being upset about this? I'm on good terms with them all and for everyone else's birthday no one has to pay for the meal.

Answer

they aren’t even paying for their own food? i would be pissed

Answer

That’s really fucked up!! Honestly you should cut those friends out because it seems they are using you 😢

Answer

Sounds to me like you and that friend should just go out together and forget about the others.

Answer

Yeah i be so pissed off no lie..yes i be hurt and you’re not wrong for feeling that way!!! Because if y’all been doing it for years why now all of a sudden nobody helping out but one? You all should get together and you should ask them why and let them know how you been feeling about it.

Answer

It’s one thing if you invite people out because proper etiquette dictates that the person who invites, pays for the bill. But if this is something that’s been going on for years, and they know the protocol, it’s not like it’s changed all the sudden, they are basically just taking advantage or mooching off of you and using you. Or perhaps they’re going through something, but at the same token it’s not right especially if that’s the arrangement.
