We have a family member who is very
very well off. He is an absolute foodie. He's also single and quite introverted, and because of the insane hours he works, doesn't have a huge circle of friends. He often invites our family out to eat at the most amazing restaurants. He always pays. We've always offered but he says that he makes so much more money than us
, and he enjoys taking us out to places. My kids have discovered so many new foods and flavours from him, and he's been brilliant at teaching them restaurant etiquette. He's really looking forward to when the kids are older and he'll be able to take them out one on one. We've also tried wines worth hundreds of dollars thanks to his generosity. He has never
once mentioned that he pays or told anyone that I'm aware of. He often puts up a couple of instagram stories of our meals but they are very discreet and never hashtaged with #iPaidForThis. All I can think of is what he think if he was in a restaurant and EL was in there shrieking and hooting behind him. For some people eating at a restaurant is a really special occasion and EL just has no concept that she is ruining it for other people.
Probs shouldn’t have sized down.
