If I were in his shoes, I don't think it would hurt my feelings at all if you didn't buy the booze. He will probably understand how you feel, but you've got to tell him first.
I told him that he could get his own and he said he missed that special thing I surprised him with... I have been having these conversations for a year and a half... I guess it will be my entire life...
