(new) friends are expensive

In my last post, I introduced a book that I read called "MWF seeking BFF" and gave a couple key points that I took from the book. One of these points was that friend-making is expensive!

Think about it. When you first meet a friend, you're not sure what he/she likes, where they live, or anything too personal about them. (I'm not saying this is bad, I like the comfort that comes from knowing that my new friends have no idea where I live or how I like my eggs.) But, it means that it's more comfortable to meet new friends for dinner, movies, etc.

Now, one dinner, the occasional movie, not too expensive. But, when you are making an effort to go out with as many potential friends as possible, the expenses can really add up!

And when you're on a budget, spending a lot of money to go out with friends is not exactly an option.
