Wait, how close were these calls?

Did your friends act different around you after you paid only for your stuff, or did things go back to normal? I never get why splitting everything down the middle is the automatic rule, it just helps people who order the expensive stuff. Maybe they truly don't get how tight things can be when you're watching every dollar.

Did you see that video comparing tools for bike fixes?

Sometimes you just gotta push through the bad days though. My best lifts always come when I ignore the plan and go by feel.

Ngl "spent an afternoon guessing" is wild to me. Honestly that sounds like a quick way to get totally lost. I'd be a nervous wreck just picking a random direction at a split without some kind of sign. What do you even do if you guess wrong and end up way off course by dark?
