I feel so stupid for staying friends with her for so long and letting this go. Now she’s my roomate so I’m stuck. But I always felt like I can’t start a fight bc it IS her money, but Ik she’s not poor AT ALL and we’ve been friends for years, now roomates, so I can’t understand why she treats me like a random stranger. Should I try calling her out about next time?

she would rather have $1 than have friends who like her, that's her problem

Yea that’s why I regret not making a comment about it, I always just pay her bc I figure even if it’s annoying it’s her money, idk should I start saying something?

if you do, it can't sound like it's the money that bothers you. "have you noticed that other people aren't like this?" or something

I don’t ask her for small things. For example She’ll literally offer “hey I’m picking up alcohol what do u want” and then I tell her and she tells me the split cost is $10 each, so then I venmo her $10. 4 hours later she says “wait I looked at the receipt you actually owe me 1 more dollar” it’s shit like that like it’s genuinely so weird idk why she even offers to buy or split costs if 1 dollar bothers her so much

Not at all, sometimes I say let’s just switch off buying like I’ll buy this uber you buy the next one. It could be as little as the uber there was $17 and the uber back was $20 she will compare at the end of the night and say “I spent $3 more on the uber so can you Venmo me” like it’s stuff like that, very small stuff that a normal person would ignore but she calculates every penny. And I’ve never forgotten to pay her once I always make sure I Venmo her if need be so idk why she gets so worrie

The one that may bother me the most is we went on a trip (it was for my birthday so I understand she didn’t wanna spend any money) I covered the whole hotel since it was for my bday so I spent over $1k on the both of us. And she asked if I could split the gas on the ride to the airport. She asked me if I could send her $15 since she was driving us to the airport. Mind u she is not poor at all, she has a lot more money than me

Then stop taking the offers. Make that a boundary you have for her, ain’t gotta tell her that but just deny everytime she offers.

Oh please…I pay her to the exact cent every time. The only times I haven’t is when she tells me the wrong price at first like in my example and then she decides 4 hours later I owe her a dollar more for tax. And there have been many times I cover her completely and tell her not to Venmo me for things $10 or more. You don’t know what you’re talking about I cover my friends completely, until they start being this stingy with me.

You must not be reading everything bc in my other comment I talk about how I paid over $1k for a hotel for the both of us and didn’t ask her to pay me at all, and she STILL asked me to split the gas money to the airport on that trip. I was paying over $1k and she still thought I owed her $15 for gas.

Right, and I would understand if I was stingy with her but I literally always offer my stuff and I always cover her and tell her don’t worry about paying me back

That’s so true, it started to give me anxiety so now I always say to my other friends if they give me their drink or something I offer to Venmo them and they’re like “r u kidding it was $3” that’s how ik im not crazy bc most friends do not make u pay them for that little of prices …😭

I did one time say something, when I paid her the correct amount and then later she said I didn’t pay her enough for tax and asked me to send her $1 more, I said “if you really need $1 I will send it to you…” and she finally said no it’s fine. I always pay her the correct amount so it gets annoying. One time she asked me to pay her INTEREST😭😭😭
