The woman supports from the group trip. Now her friends want her to cover everyone’s loss

A woman seeks advice from the Reddit community after a dispute with two friends about a canceled Airbnb trip.

The original plan was simple: three friends would split a $ 600 rent, each contributed $ 200, with a friend, called friend A and paid the full amount in advance.

“Friend A was the one who booked and paid in full so that I and Friend B would give a our share ($ 200.00 each) later,” the woman writes in Her post. But the plans changed when she decided not to go anymore, with reference to “personal and security reasons.”

Although the landlord “only would give a 50% refund” if they canceled “, both friend A and Friend B wanted to go.”

Although she backed down, the poster told her friends that she would honor her part of the agreement. “I said that if they still wanted to go, I would give my part ($ 200.00) since I took responsibility for being part of it before,” she explains.

But things took a turn when friend A demanded more than just her original proportion. “Friend A said I would pay $ 300.00 because I was the one who didn’t want to go, not them, and if they were to cancel it, it would be the total loss,” she explains.

The poster did not agree that she would pay more than her part, especially since the trip was still scheduled to move forward without her. “Why would I pay for half of the trip when not even canceled yet?” She questions and shoots back on what she saw as an unfair request.

Friend A then mentioned that they would try to invite someone else to take her place. But they made it clear that if that person declined, the poster would be expected to cover the entire $ 300 shortage.

The next day, friend a message again with an update. “They informed me that the other person they invited did not want to go and that they had canceled the house,” writes the woman, leaving that friend one also sent proof of repayment.

Now, with Airbnb officially canceled, Friend A insisted that she be held entirely responsible for the loss. “They expected me to pay the full amount of $ 300.00 because I first backed out,” she explains, even though both friends decided in the end not to go.

What made the situation even more frustrating was friend A’s refusal to ask friend B for their share “because they also wanted to go.”

“I told them that if they ask for the person’s B -division or is not my problem, my only responsibility is now to pay my part,” the woman replied.

For her, the fair thing would be for everyone to pay based on the final result. “Now that the repayment was made, I believe that the correct amount for each person to pay is $ 100.00,” she claims, since the Airbnb values only refunded 50% of a total of $ 600.

She repeats that she never asked the group to cancel. “I never forced them not to go but actually said that I would still pay my part in their entirety and they chose not to go,” she writes. From her perspective, she maintained her end on the pitch, and what they did afterwards was out of her hands.

Despite the pushbacken from Friend A, she decided to solve what she thought was fair. “I refused and sent $ 105.00 for my share and told them it was my share and that it would be everything I would pay,” she shares and holds on to her decision.

In an editing to the post, the woman shared the friend A’s “reasoning so as not to go through the trip was because they did not want to share food and gas into 2, but 3.”

By adding another layer of excitement to the story, the poster revealed that the friend originally “wanted a bigger and more beautiful house that could suit 4-5 people, but I didn’t want it because it was too expensive (about $ 850).”

The situation left her to feel stuck, unsure about setting boundaries over what she is guilty makes her selfish or simply fair. But one thing she is sure of is this: “My only responsibility now is to pay my part.”
