@polishedsocietyproject: The meal shouldn’t end with everyone doing forensic accounting on the receipt. If you’re splitting the bill, decide how before you order, keep things reasonable, and don’t make the whole table wait while everyone calculates their exact share. Good manners apply to the check, too. Polite is Powerful™ #Etiquette #DiningEtiquette #RestaurantEtiquette #Manners
If you’re going out with people that want their separate checks, don’t go out with them.

I prefer separate checks, because I don’t wanna feel guilty for ordering more beverages or a higher priced meal.

Easiest way is to ask for a separate check. The cheap person, ordering the high priced everything, expecting you to "split" is wrong. There's one in every every crowd.

so true. also, if you are planning the dinner and inviting everyone, it is your duty to be sure split checks are even an option as some restaurants do not do this. then people who assumed the check would be split freak out and someone has to do alot of math and exchange venmos etc it is so messy

as soon as i take drinkborders, i ask if everybody is all on one check or separate. it takes all the confusion out when everyone wants to split at the end on a busy friday night
