If you're in a café with someone and realise you don't have the price of a cup of tea-- or some similiar situation-- and she buys it for you, would you offer the money back later? Personally, I would rather not be embarrassed by having a trivial sum returned.

That dead girl, I would definitely accept 3.50 back! And that's 3.50 EURO!

Lady Luck, it feels unfriendly to me to offer back a trivial amount. It's like saying you're unwilling to be in somebody's debt even in the slightest degree. Almost like negating the favour.

My parents certainly ain't wealthy. I grew up on social welfare. Maybe that's where I got my something for nothing mentality, ha ha ha.
