I went tot he bar last night with a couple of girl friends and basically dropped 50 bucks. Im not complaining because i wasnt the only guy buying drinks all night, but the girls walked away, maybe dropping $10, and never offering to even buy rounds once. Now, i know its the guys responsiblity to pay for most of the drinks throughout the night, but shouldnt the girls at least offer, espeically when you consider them friends?
Also, should a girl at least speak to you after you buy them a round? (im not saying this is the case for me, but my friend last night bought a round for a girl and she didnt even say thank you)
When I go out with my friends I usually buy just as much as everyone else, unless I'm done. But, when strangers offer to buy drinks, i usually take the drink and go on my way...
Eh, if it's a girlfriend, then you should buy all the drinks, but if they are just friends, and that's the way you want it to stay, the most you should do is buy a round of shots and maybe a drink for them, but you aren't "supposed" to buy all their rounds. Get out of that habit IMMEDIATELY!

First off, i didnt buy all the rounds. I brought two of maybe seven. I was just saying that it basically sucks to be a guy at a bar. I would have no problem if i was buying shit for a girlfriend because i know down the line she would pay me back with interest, but for regular friends, i would expect them to at least be kind enough to offer to help me out. Women just get everything for free this day and age and thats why when i find a girl who even offers to help me out, ill marry her.
So don't buy their drinks, what's so hard about that?
You say they're getting everything for free and there's something wrong with that, but YOU'RE the one buying them everything, that's why they're getting everything for free. You can't do it willingly and then complain about it :P
True, my friends and I were talking about all the random guys that try/do buy us drinks...one friend felt guilty, the other and I didn't. Reason being, they're trying to buy us drinks, we're not like "hey, wanna buy me a drink?"
Yeah but if a guy spends like $3 on you, you should at least give him the time of day. It's just plain rude if you don't. Fuck man, when I hit 21 I'm never going to buy a girl a drink unless it's a girlfriend or close friend. Bitches I don't know: you buy ME a drink and then maybe I'll listen to what you have to say.

The bottom line is that the guy finds you to be attractive and buying you a drink is the most socially acceptable ice-breaker there is at the bar. I would hate it terribly if a woman accepted a drink I bought her and didn't even say 'Thank You'.
I'm not too up on bar life though, so I won't comment past saying that friends shouldn't be pulling the kind of thing Gruesome's lady friends did. Friends normally won't mind buying you a few drinks if you can't afford it and are honest with them.
Hey, man, it's a brutal age to be a dude. Either you're not treating them as equals or you're not being a gentleman. Of course, when it comes to footing the bill, they'd rather you be a gentleman.
I bought my own weed every now and then. And if I go out with Kaneda, I easily drop $200...but the last two nights I went out I spent $9, cover charge and went home completely shit faced, the other I spent $15, on food for me and my friend afterwards- we got in free
