The guy is not joking. This is real. And even the methods. and no such thing as going Dutch, someone will pay, and pay for all. And will fight for the bill. The norm is the bathroom trick... pretend to go to the bathroom... pay the bill on the way :-)

So true! My grandma and dad recently fought for the bill!! You haven't seen a determined, tough Middle Eastern woman till you see a 70 something woman march across the restaurant and (lightly) shove her son-in-law to reach the bill.

I'm a waitress and this definitely happens. One guy gave me his credit card at the beginning of the meal and I had to hold onto it the entire time they ate and ordered more drinks so I never knew when to run it!

This is very true, i have North African friends aswell as Middle Eastern and they also fight over the bill, some truly get disappointed if you pay twice. You can see the disappointment in their eyes as they argue over the bill. I guess it's not only a cultural thing but i think it's an Islamic cultural thing a good gesture in a way. They also have to accept a gift even when they do not want it or need it but they have to accept a gift because it's disrespectful if they deny a gift. Good folks.

That happens also when its time to clean dishes if we invite someone to lunch or dinner , it goes like that : Mom : i will clean the dishes go have some rest Aunt : no way i will clean the dishes And this conversation will be like for a 15 minutes , then my mom finally convinces my aunt, then guess what happens, I I I I clean the fucking dishes , love from palestine

So nostalgic! I'm Canadian, but this so resonates. As a kid, every time I went on a "fun" shopping day with my mother, grandmother and aunts, there was always a violent argument between them when the bill came for lunch, and it always upset me. Conflict stresses me. Once, as a teenager, I felt old enough and prosperous enough to interrupt and say, "I'll pay for it!". As a group, they all turned to me and angrily said, "Shut up!". No win!

I love this! I only wish that Everyone was like that. It’s called generosity.

Yes in my country, we fight over the bill and if someone comes over to our house, no matter who, we must be hospitable by offering coffee and fruits and if the time is around lunch or dinner, we offer the meal too and we insist on the guest to dine with us, and we have a guest suite annexed to our house as we shouldn’t let guests stay in hotels when they come from far away .... in the original Arab culture, generosity is a sign of dignity that’s why they call generosity “KARAM” and dignity is “KARAMA” ... the habit is however fading in big cities and more observed in smaller villages and amongst the Bedouin (nomads). so when I was younger on my first trip to USA, I insisted on the plumber who was sent by the landlord to fix the basin mixer to stay and have lunch with me, the guy backed up and had that weird look at me, later my friend told me I shouldn’t have done that and that the guy might have thought I was hitting at him... It was so embarrassing and I never told this to any one who knows me personally.

Funny thing is my friend and I argued in the cashier who’s paying to the point we both said if u charge mine I’ll pay 30% tip. Long story short he beat me by 70% tip. Worst night ever

In Iran, there is a rule of "tarof" that when a person wants to give you something as a gift or food,... You MUST refuse at first then he will ask you again and again, finally analyze what he thinks deeply and if he really wants you to have it or not, then make decision to accept or not. A bit confused at first but you will learn by striving😂😂😂
