I'm sick of people fricking complaining about this. I ain't hungry or I don't want to spend 25 dollars on shitty food. Enough.

bullshite. You're the not hungry guy that swipes the last appetizer and starts eyeballing people's leftovers. Then when the bill comes you don't offer to pay for anything since you "didn't order food."

Why. That makes no sense. I'm going to be spending the next 14 hours with these people. Why should a 45 minute excursion mean I should stay at home.

You sound like a ball of fun. Way to start these 14 hours off on the right foot.

When I was 8 years old I invited a couple of kids to come over and swim at my house after summer church camp. When we were walking home we stopped to get food and he said he wasn't hungry. We knew he had to be since it was early afternoon and we kept telling him to get something and then he finally admitted he was hungry but just like you he had no money and couldn't afford to order food. We bought him his food and then all got on him for not letting us know. We told him not to do that again because we were his friends and if we had eaten in front of him while he was hungry and couldn't because he had no cash he would make us huge jerks.

The point is if you are just honest and tell your friends you can't afford a meal I am sure they will pick up the tab because they won't want to eat in front of you while you are broke. The reason they all ask is because they KNOW you aren't eating because you are broke which makes them feel like assholes for eating in front of you and ruins their meal. Since they already know you have failed to the point where you can't buy a meal they won't judge you for admitting it. They will appreciate you are being honest, they will be thrilled they can finally enjoy a meal with you around and everyone likes being charitable to someone who is less fortunate.

OP must be fat.Lots of fat people won't eat in public. They go home and pig out at home for dinner.

I did catch one eat a big Subway cookie once. Thing was folded up and consumed with the quickness.

I have a friend who's cheap/poor like you. Will always come out with us but will never eat because he would never spend XX dollars on XX food.

Personally if I couldn't afford to eat out I'd rather stay home then sit there looking like a jackass.

All I said was "I'm not hungry. Thank you." And I have 3-4 people all"what do you mean you aren't hungry. Is everything ok in your life? Is something wrong?"

Well..... Is everything OK with your life?

Self-centered people ask questions like that. Reminds me of people who have untrained dogs at their house who jump all over you and slobber on you, and they look like you're from Mars when you balk at it.
