In my younger days when I was going over to someone's house I would bring a 2 liter because that's how I roll. Nothing but the finest 2 dollar soda for my friends.

Courtesy!!

I'm not asking for a $100 bottle of liquor.

Idk why, but this is a huge turnoff for me.

Its like, you come to house, use my bathroom, eat food, watch TV, maybe end up taking a shower, the least you can do is bring something.

Something to drink, a bag of chips, some oreos, hell, even a box of tissues. Something!

I just feel like this is common courtesy. I do that whenever I go to anyone's house. Whether I'm dating them or not.

Just shows how considerate a person is.

hm... I kind of thought that part of being a host/ess was graciousness, generosity and hospitality. The pleasure of the other person's company is payment enough. Usually, they'll reciprocate eventually, and will have you over, or will take you out to dinner. But if it's a hardship to host someone, put a coin-operated lock on the bathroom door.

Why does it automatically have to be a hardship? Why can't I expect courtesy from people?

The courtesy comes when they reciprocate, and you get a free meal and free bathroom privileges from them. I don't expect a donation when I have people to dinner. I just want to enjoy good conversation.

And where do you draw the line? If you have a friend over for tea, do they have to bring their own teabag?

Again why is it a donation?

I been living on my own since I was 17. I'll be 24 this yr. I don't need anyone to donate a damn thing to me.

Its courtesy see to me. Maybe to people who don't have ****, its called a donation.
