    I think she just hates parting with money. I know a few like this. It's not that she's out to fleece you or anything just her inbuilt no spend system. I know someone similar. Just get your own coffee in future & don't say yes to the offer of getting a drink at the bar or whatever. You'll probably notice other little niggly things as time goes by (i suspect you have already) which on their own amount to nothing but added up don't sit well. It's quite amusing to watch once you become aware of it.

    interesting insightful reply.. and yes I have noticed other things - but i still like her - she has good qualities too..

    tis strange though - and you know i had a thought this morn.. with other mates, its a pleasure to shout them a coffee.. you know.. meet a good friend.. have good chats.. nice to get them a coffee.. but with her, with the way she is about money, its takes that pleasure out of it.. if you know what i mean... cos its an issue.. there is always the " oh i have no money, do they take visa etc".. era i wish she would just check her money situation before getting into the cafe or where ever - thats if she is not scabby and just scatty.. if its the former - well, i'll have my own cash anyway thats for sure..

    anyway.. see how it goes..

    happy new year.. x
