I think it's just different personality types and priorities. I had a friend who used to buy a lot of alcohol for people around him, and I was really shitty about it at the time - relying on a lot of that to get drunk. To this day, I feel extremely guilty about it, even after years of him being like "it's fine, there's no debt". What make it worse is that for the last three years of our friendship, I began to really resent him, and I only stuck around because I felt indebted to him over shit like that.

I feel shitty, like I was an opportunist who took advantage of him, or who at least owes a lot of money and time to him. That's something I don't think I'm ever really gonna be able to escape. And it made it that much harder to leave when I began hating him, because it's doubly as shitty to get free drinks and then eventually leave them - even years after I stopped being a fuckface and began buying my own drinks. That feeling of debt still remains.

Even if money is no big deal to you, people still feel guilty over money being spent on them and it can strain relationships. Just because everything's all clear with you, the baggage of that spending remains. And that's not everybody, but there are some people who can't escape that feeling, and it impacts their relationships.
