I'm a soft touch too and I take people out all the time without expecting anything but in most cases these guys typically try to include me in activities that are big with them (golf, cookouts, sports events, etc) that I otherwise wouldn't have done so I figure if you've got decent friends it all evens out eventually. On the other hand if you're entertaining a bunch of moochers thats not good and your wife is probably right.

oops . . uhh . . change above word "moochers" to "freeloaders" (didn't mean to offend any of my bait soaking bretheren)
