If I had a friend like this, unless they were useful or more interesting than average people, I'd stop inviting them out.
I'll just let that friendship die, that's fine.
This is worse than what my friends and I usually do. We either do completely separate bills, or we trade back and forth who is paying. Nobody quibbles about how much, or how much more this time might be compared to last time. You pay the bill, and next time, your bill gets paid for you.
I take note whenever I'm paying more than once in a row, and if it becomes a trend that I'm paying for everything, I stop inviting people out. I'm not going to invite you out somewhere just to have me pay for it 100% of the time. If I wanted to pay for someone to keep me company, I'd hire a hooker.
Oh, I'm not joking.
I have very few, very loyal, very long-term friends. I like it that way. Knowing too many people gets to be problematic.
No worries
