  The dude is the only one who mentioned money.

  When he said he wasn’t paying she didn’t ask him to or imply that she was disappointed.

  This seems like the dude dropped the ball.

  I dont mind that, so long as the food is cheap.

  My personal limit for that is ~20$, anything less than that and within reason, I wont question buying anyone food. Calories are important and im not going to judge people that quickly, have a pizza.

  I prefer to have that meal repaid in the future with an IOU or another meal rather dealing with money, also the social connections are more important.

  On the flip side, if I never see that person again. 20$ well spent.

  Where do you see that from the picture? If he wants to make sure he is not paying for the third wheel, there are ways to say that without sounding like a total dick. She, on the other hand, doesn’t mention money or food at all. We simply do not know the whole story here.
