Was I wrong to be upset?

I hate going out with certain friends. If we go for a curry they always have the most expensive starter, eat more poppadoms, have an expensive main with rice and chips and naan. They always want a desert that they barely touch and they drink 3x more than me. Then when the bill comes they want to split it equally. And usually all the others agree and I feel like a **** if I speak out.

I usually find out if they are going and decline now.
 
That one incident in isolation wouldn't be enough to end a friendship, but would draw a rather sharp rebuke, it's just plain rude. If he'd asked me, I'd have gladly shared with him, but to just dive in like that - Hell to the no.

However, throw in the rest of it, mooching cigarettes without every buying a pack, taking drinks without ever offering to get a round in. That **** won't fly with me. I'd be asking myself what kind of 'friend' this guy is. Seriously.
 
I'd say it's unacceptable.
The only person I used to do it too was my younger sister - she was one of those kids that never finished their food, and I always waited until she appeared to have stopped and then I asked her.

Waste not want not!
 
Curry places I go to have 'communal nanns' you just grabs some and sick it on your plate.

That said, if you go to a place where you get individual portions of rice/naan/whatever, with a guy called 'Monster' ....

Personally, I don't mind people nicking bits from my plate, unless someone is being a real gannit and hasn't chipped in, then I have been known to repel said gannit by means of a swift jab to the back of the intruding hand with my fork!
