Where I live, it's very widespread and perfectly acceptable to pay exactly what you owe, especially if you're drinking/dining with peers. Waiters typically ask if you want to share a common bill or if you want to pay separately; if it's the latter they'll do the adding up for you.

Yeah, it is like this where I live too. I will never understand people trying to play a game in order to figure out who pays the whole bill.
Where do you live?
Germany. Gosh I hope that's not just a German thing.
In Sweden it is also in many situations acceptable to pay for just your items.
Shit guys I do this in America. Delegate the work to the waiter by telling her you want to split the checks up front. Problem solved.
Where do you live that this isn't the norm? (sorry if you weren't implying that it isn't)
similar approach in Czech Republic, and you can leave the tip separately.
