How to tell my platonic lady friend not to order the most expensive menu item?
-
I have a female friend who is strictly platonic. When we go out, I offer to pay, but she always orders the most expensive thing.
Should I tell her to cut it out?Why do you offer to pay?
Because she's unemployed.
You can offer her temporary employment as your on-call escort

Ok, that's fair - but what role does she being a woman play into this?

Should I tell her to cut it out?If you loan someone money and they don't repay you, you know not to loan them money again.
Likewise if you take someone out to dinner, and they don't respect you enough to avoid ordering the most expensive dish, you should know not to pay for there dinners anymore

Another thought OP. Take her out, let her order the most expensive meal, then pick a fight with her and refuse to pay for her meal.
Pro tip: provoke her into a rant about feminism or women's equality issues. Then slap her with her side of the bill. She might even demand it just to spite you.
