Jessenomics: Friendship Float

In general, we should not rely on others for money or favours. If you go out for dinner with friends, be prepared. Or order to your budget. If you get caught short, pay your friend back. Scabs aren't cool.

Same with housemates. Make sure everything is shared equally. Don't let small things build up til people resent you.

The only exception I make to this general rule is the Friendship Float. Sometimes friends come to a sort of understanding about such things. You cover their occasional small costs, and they cover yours, and you promise to shout them a coffee next time, and so on, and it all evens out.
