Me and 3 friends decides to book a weekend trip to a nearby city. I spent a bit of time searching for a good deal on a hotel because our incomes are not that comparable, mainly because I and another friend don’t make as much money as the rest.
About a week ago one of my friends decided to invite another one of her friends. I hardly know this person, but was okay with it initially. This friend of hers contacted the hotel, and let us know that in order to rebook a bigger room we had to pay almost 200 euros of rebooking fees and 30 euro extra per night. I told her that I’m not willing to do that, because I don’t have that much money and I’ve spent quite some time looking for a deal.
The situation got pretty tense, and a pretty big discussion started out because my friend and the acquaintance kept saying we needed to make a choice about the room because the group was divided about it. I was the only one who actually spoke out against it, but another friend was also not willing to pay. I told them that my point of view has been pretty clear from the start, but now I’m wondering if I am the asshole for not wanting to pay for her?
