Would a steak lunch at a place like Applebees, Chili's, or even Perkin's cost ONE person $26? Or at a restaurant such as those, would $26 have to be a meal for TWO people?

I figured as much. Not even my fat assed man could eat that much $ worth of food at an "average" restaurant.

Hey BB! No way would it cost that much! I lived on the road for 8 years in my last job and always looked for good and CHEAP places to eat, with the emphasis on cheap.....Always ended up at Applebees and Perkins and Chili's...never ever cost that much!

Yeah, I came to this conclusion before my man left tonight. (I even called his work yesterday to see if he would want me to bring him lunch (I did that often) and the asst. manager said he took off to bring lunch back to work.)

The restaurant is called Tumbleweeds if anyone has ever heard of that. It seems to be about the same price and style as a Applebees or Perkin's or whatever. Mid-grade diner kinda place. No fast food, but no fancy steak house.

I found a receipt on the bathroom countertop while he was showering that said he went in at 12:15 (and he HATES eating at a restaurant! He'd rather take food home, etc) yesterday and it cost $26 to eat.

I asked him about it, and my man said he stayed at the restaurant and ate stake. I flat out asked him if he went with someone, etc. Bastard lied to my face.

*sigh*

Why do I stay with him?

Because sometimes it's easier to stay in a relationship that hurts the to take a chance on going out on our own.

But sometimes it's better to take that chance, Blessed. You're in my thoughts and prayers. ((((((((BlessedBe))))))))

Thank you.

I don't know hon.

But now that you have tangible proof that he's a liar and a cheat, the longer that you stay with him the less you will think of yourself.

Drop the dork and save your self esteem... take a walk honey, and don't look back.

If only it were that easy, though...

I know, and I'm sorry I made it all sound so glib, cos it ain't.

Heck I hate to think how many years it took me to get the courage to take my walk.

You'll do it hon, but when you're ready and not before. And only you will know when that is.

Applebee's here is running a special on steak DINNERS--2 for $19.95 (no sales tax here in Oregon.) Add a couple of drinks or a pitcher of beer and you are at $26 or so. AA

But, still, it's almost "impossible" for one person to have a $26 bill for lunch (often times lunches are a bit cheaper than dinners) at "average" restaurants.

Hell, even at Outback it would be a "fancy" dinner for one to reach $26.

I agree...I think $12-15 would be average for most of those places for lunch.
