How unfortunate! Hopefully it's a lesson learned. I mean, you knew you were short on cash. Why be risky?

They're your friends... Why the awkward silence in the first place?

I think it's a little presumptuous to go out for dinner with your friends without enough money to pay for your own share. What were you going to do if they said no to your little game? Dine and dash? Put your friends on the spot to make up the difference?

Did the awkward silence settle because you all got off your phones and stopped calling other people, or because you suggested a game like that?

Why did you go in the first place if you couldnt afford it? How is this not entirely YDI?
