Today, I already have been so productive with all the task I assigned myself. So in the morning, I started with preparing myself for my early work. As I wait for my student to come to class, I already have scheduled things I will do for tomorrow. I also have encoded the cash flow I had. I listened to podcast, Chingkee Tan's YouTube channel. I used my medicine, composed Wattpad new chapters, read a book, did the laundry and now writing again here.
Although I was doing a lot of job, but I felt like my expense is higher than what I can actually provide. I can spend more because I have a man who spends for me. But yeah I am planning to make a budget chart.
Well, I realized that whenever I go out with my friends, I was the one who always spends. Let's say when I and Niknelyn went out yesterday to eat in Marugame, she didn't spend a penny nor offered me that she pays this time. I kinda find that off for being a friend to her. So I guest when something's not reciprocating, I need to limit my spending to her.
Take note, she's older than me but I treat her all the time. At first, it was in the cinema, next in Starbucks, and then in Karaoke, Krispy Kreme and now in Marugame. Food is not something I don't share but I could feel that she only wants benefits from me. Well, maybe she has not intention for that and I'm just traumatized with Denise but yeah, I wanted to prevent that to happen. I felt like she will become like Denise. I'm like creating a new monster again.
So, what should I do then? How do I make everything clear with her that it's not always me?
I asked the google gemini for me to get more idea on how to handle such kind of person.
1. Propose activities with ticket fees and ask if she's going to go or if she has money to spend on this.
2. Casually mention how you've been saving up for something or how you're on a budget.
3. If she offers to pay for something small, express gratitude and reciprocate the next time.
4. Invite her to join you for activities where she's more likely to pay, like a coffee shop run or a quick bite.
5. If she suggests a place, ask her opinion on the budget and let her choose something affordable
I love using AI this time, Haha! I love that I didn't need to talk to her about that, instead, I would actually just show her that I'm not into something where I spend all the time. So yeah, next Wednesday, I would make her feel the needs to pay for herself.
