I'm generous but not stupid

Had a bar I hung out at. One of the regulars was a girl (Cami) that would walk up to guys and ask them to buy her a drink. Did this all the time.

I'll buy almost anybody a drink. A drink . One. Ever. Be nice in bars, you never know when you might need an alibi witness.

So she gets her free drink. Week or two later she tries it again. She'd been at a table with her girlfriends, 4 or 5 women I'd never talked to (I'm old enough to be their dad lol).

I told Scami no, but.. I walked over to the table of her gal pals. And bought all of them a drink.

Best part was how the bartender made sure to tell that story to all the regulars.

I know a girl like this. Her name is Michelle but everyone calls her "Moochelle".

Please describe the look on her face as you pulled this epic stunt. In detail, por favor.

Just kinda slack jawed. It was Florida so slack jawed is pretty much resting Florida face

It's great that you're a generous person, but it's also important to have boundaries and not let people take advantage of your kindness. It sounds like you handled the situation with Cami in a smart way!

When I was an idiot high school kid (several decades ago), there was a girl who hung out with the same folks I did in the morning before class. “Can I borrow $1 for french fries?”

I said yes day after day for almost a month. Again, I was young and stupid. And keep in mind my job was minimum wage, which was a whopping $3.35 at the time.

Weeks into this, I replied to “can I borrow $1?” With a “Yes, as soon as you pay me back for all the dollars you borrowed already.”

I never saw those $20, but she never asked me again.

Girl in the bar got a free drink from guy.

Girl tried again, but guy did not buy the drink. Instead he bought drinks for the girls she was with.

Friends proceed to share their four or five free drinks with Cami anyway.

OP said he'll buy anyone a drink - once. When Scami approached trying to scam a stranger for a second free drink, he not only refused, he bought her friends drinks. Doubtful, but would be nice if Scami stopped her scamminess.
