I don't see anything wrong with myself, if it were everyone else, would everyone suffer in silence?
I am 30 years old and a programmer for a large IT company.
My monthly salary is about 35 million, maybe people will think that salary is high, but it sounds like that, in fact my wife does not work, she is a housewife so she does not have a salary, I have to pay for several types of insurance at once, shouldering all the expenses in the family.
I have a son and a daughter, and have bought a house and a car. However, with a salary of 35 million for 4 people living in the city for 1 month, it is quite tight, not to mention raising children is extremely expensive.
Tuition, electricity, water, gas, etc. All kinds of money and pressure weigh heavily on my shoulders, so I absolutely dare not spend lavishly.
Taking advantage of the weekend off, my wife and children drove back to my hometown to play. After being busy all year round in the city, returning to my hometown finally gave me a feeling of relaxation and healing. I considered it a short vacation, recharging my batteries before returning to the city to continue fighting.
Yesterday in the high school class chat group, everyone was talking excitedly, someone said they finally saw me go back to my hometown.
We haven't seen each other for ten years. Tomorrow night, everyone will gather together for a meal and reminisce about old times. Most of my class stayed in their hometown to work, only a few like me worked in the city, so it was easier for everyone to meet each other.
So, as the class monitor, I wrote a group meeting notice, called everyone to come, and then counted the list.
In the end, a total of 22 people agreed to participate, including a man named Quan who brought his girlfriend, so there were 23 people in total.
Then we discussed in the group again to decide on the restaurant, the time is 8pm.
We booked 2 tables in a large private room. After discussing, I wrote another notice of time and location in the group. The next night, I arrived the earliest to wait and check everyone's attendance.
Old classmates came one after another, Quan was the last to arrive, first he shook hands, greeted and chatted with his friends.
After waiting about 30 minutes, Quan's girlfriend arrived, and then we officially started the party. The dishes were served, the wine was poured, and the whole meal was very happy and lively.
Everyone came to toast the old class monitor, me. Quan asked me what my job was. I honestly reported. Quan said he admired me for living in the city, buying a house and a car, and having my children go to school in the city. I just smiled and said nothing.
The party ended around 10pm. I organized the meeting today, so I was the one who paid the bill.
The bill was 15 million, divided among 23 people, each person got about 650 thousand. Everyone transferred the money to me and sent me a confirmation bill photo in the group or in a private message. I also saw Quan's bill, but there were so many people at that time that I didn't pay attention. When I got home and calculated the total, I realized it was 650 thousand short.
I checked again and found out that the missing part was from Quan's girlfriend, that guy only transferred one person's part.

So I immediately texted Quan: "You and your girlfriend are two people, the total is 1,300,000 VND, I just received 650 thousand, still need 650 thousand more to be enough, please transfer it back to me."
But the message was sent for a whole day without a reply, so I had to text again, but Quan said that his girlfriend was not a classmate, and that adding a girlfriend to the meal was not worth much, then blamed me for miscalculating, who would collect money from someone else's girlfriend like that, it should have only counted the total for 22 people, 22 people were 680 thousand each, Quan transferred me an additional 30 thousand, and told me to collect the rest from the other friends.
Hearing this, I said to him directly: “Our class agreed to divide the money based on the number of people. The other students don’t know your girlfriend, so why do they have to pay for her? Furthermore, you guys said you would pay for her, everyone transferred 650 thousand to me, now you want me to ask the remaining 20 students for 30 thousand each?”
Quan said: "Class monitor, I see that you don't lack any money, your salary is so high. If you don't want to ask everyone for money, then just count it all as your share!"
At this point I was really annoyed. I had given him some face, not texting him in the class group to ask for money but texting him privately, and yet this guy was still acting like a jerk.
We had agreed to split the money equally, but he still went back on his word. I went straight to the group and mentioned Quan's name, then sent a message: "Yesterday's class reunion was very fun, thank you everyone for your active participation. For now, Quan hasn't paid for the food yet. After Quan reads this message, please send me the money back!"
Along with that was a screenshot of our texting history sent to the group, everyone read it and immediately exploded, everyone criticized why Quan did that.
A few minutes later, I received a transfer of 650 thousand from Quan. He even blamed me. He didn't expect me to be that kind of person. I had a few hundred thousand but acted like I was really short of money, to the point of sending it to the class group to embarrass him.
There were also people in the group who said that this should be resolved privately, because it would not be good to bring it up in public, and they said that I was too rigid in resolving it. But I don't see anything wrong with myself, if it were everyone else, wouldn't everyone suffer in silence? Also, I resolved it privately first, but it didn't work, so I had to do it this way.
Furthermore, two people went together but only paid for one person's share, this clearly shows that the person's character is questionable, just spending a few hundred thousand can see a person's character, it's too worthy.
Associating with this kind of person will only make you suffer in the future. Organizing a party is a waste of time and effort. Meeting this kind of person will turn a happy party into a bitter and unpleasant one. No matter whose money it is, it is very precious. It doesn't come naturally, don't you agree?
Selfish, fickle people should not expect to have dignity.
