We don’t always have the same money habits our friends do.
you might easily get over this by initiating the invitation.
It seems painfully obvious, but this is an issue that occasionally pops up.
Many people struggle to hang out with spendthrift friends oreven a partnerthat’s less frugal than they are.
I’ve actually seen some money experts suggest ditching spendy friends for thrifty ones.
But it seems silly to eliminate friendships simply because someone doesn’t share your financial habits.
I tend to invite friends over for dinner at my place, or out for happy hour.
I also enjoy going out for walks, hanging in the park, or going for coffee or tea.
Start initiating the hangouts.
They won’t feel neglected, and you won’t feel over-budgeted.
