If I'm taking one one of my friends out for their birthday, then they pay nothing, I mean, hell, it's their birthday! It seems on my bday (I hate having it in the summer) no one is around to go out. So what ends up happening is a get gifts/drinks randomly during the fall semester :p

friends have always bought my drinks.

after i turn 21 i will return the favor to them.




* haha. that sounds funny. its alot easier to drink bought drinks if your under 21 than it is to buy them. thats what i mean.

In my circle of friends, we all treat the birthday person. And since the group is so large, usually you only have to buy them one drink. It's not expected, but it's normally what happens.

I always buy my friends at least one drink and one shot. It almost always ends up to be more drinks and shots though.

I even buy random people a shot at the bar if its their birthday. (I picked up that tradition when so many randoms bought me shots on my birthday. I feel that I need to spread the luv around!)

This is our rule also - so I'm super excited for my 21st. ;)

I don't think I have ever paid for my own drinks on my birthday, however this year a bunch of friends went out with me, and my husband footed the bill for me. No one else offered to buy me any drinks. I really don't care though.

Giiiiirl, you is about to get fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhkced.

last year I had some friends who were really excited to take me out to dinner for my birthday. it was really nice, because nobody's ever around for my birthday anyway...
I paid for my dinner. I paid for my drinks until my other friend showed up and bought me one.
I love my friends, and it was nice that they wanted to go out with me, but come on! I'm always the one buying people drinks/dinner for their birthdays....

same with my friends. if its someone's birthday you're not allowed to pay even if you want. for dinner usually everyone splits the birthday persons tab but sometimes the significant other will take care of it. when its a birthday everyone takes turns buying drinks.

Sisters always went out for dinner for someone's birthday. Not a really $$ place but still everyone chipped in to pay for the guest of honor. And those of that could paid for her later at the bar. Honestly, in college I appreciated the 'real food' at Applebees, Olive Garden & TGIFriday's much more than a gift.

My friends here in the city helped me celebrate my 23rd in May and they refused to let me pay for my plate of the Japanese take-out we got.
