I can't pay for all 3 of them...and frankly, am mad that he did this. Should I still pay for him? I hope he does not expect me to pay for all of them.

No you shouldn't pay for his friends.. and when we go out with a group for a birthday the whole group usually splits the birthday person's dinner so the more the cheaper for you, but if nothing else pay for yourself and your man and let the rest fend for themselves. To avoid awkwardness clarify with the group ahead of time.

You shouldn't have to pay for his friends. You should pay for just yours and his food. It is his birthday and I'm sure if you ask for a seperate ticket that his friends will end up paying for themselves, I know my friends wouldn't want me paying for their food on my birthday. Just explain to him that you planned for it to just be you and him and that you won't pay for his friends because you're not the one that invited him, but make sure he knows that you'll be covering his food and yours, and try to be nice about it. I hope you have a good time tonight and happy birthday to your bf. Good Luck :o)

If you invited your bf to dinner, then you pay for him. If he invited his friends then he should pay for them. That's only fair and your bf should understand. Say it nicely! It is his birthday after all.

Hope his friends chip in!
Or announce that you've got his meal and your own and ask the others to chip in.
Settle this before dinner not when the check comes.

You should pay ONLY for yourself and your boyfriend since YOU did not invite the other people.

Come on, that's ridiculous!!! It's his birthday, not yours and he can invite anyone he wants. You are being selfish wanting him for yourself only. It's his birthday and he should have all the closest people around him, including you and his best friends! No obligation to pay for anything though.

Just ask to have the ticket split into you and him and then let each friend pay separately. Surely, they don't expect you to pay.

Hell no ! His friends should pay for their meals . You can pay for your meal and your boyfriend , you are not responsible for those other guys meals.He invited his friends then he should ask them to pay or he should pay for them since he invited them .

No you should't pay, why should you? You did not invite them. And honestly I wouldn't even pay his, I would be too mad.

I would honestly be mad too. He didn't ask if you if that was alright and that's rude. I wouldn't pay. When the waiter/waitress asks, step up to the plate and say "he and I are on one"...let the others figure out what they're going to do.
