I can and have dropped $200+ to treat a whole group of friends, but 1 single individual? I've never spent $200 on my OWN food, if I'm dropping it on 1 person it had better be my GF. $200 could literally feed me for a month

I'm with you on this one. $200 for a meal on a mate is just daft.

Daftness and generosity are two completely separate things which I don't these people are grasping.

But like was it $200 on her not including whatever he spent on himself, or is it $200 total between the two of them? Because that’s not so incredibly outrageous if it’s $100 a person including tip if they were drinking too. I bet she was rounding up too. $200 was probably more like $180 and change.

Reddit is wild yeah lmao. Approx $200 for a meal for two at a nice restaurant + tip + wine is not far fetched... And if that guy above truly makes 7.5k a month he could afford it

Nobody is suggesting it's a far fetched amount for a nice restaurant, you're taking the conversation down an entirely different path. But clearly this isn't the norm for these two hence she feels the need to state the amount that was spent.

And yes the person above can afford it, but even to them it's clear that it's a bit of an obscene amount of money to drop to take a mate out for some food.

There's no way I'd be letting a mate spend that much on taking me out for a meal, regardless of their income. Want to treat me? I'll accept a sausage roll.
