I'm a master at stain removal. These sheets are ruined.

Well since she gave you the post-vomit BJ, I'd say you two are even-Steven.

Maybe the real question should be why do you want to be with a girl that is a lush?

Is she drinks like this, move on and get new sheets for your next/better girlfriend.

Good luck

She's offered to pay to replace the bedding, and it was expensive stuff, but I'm having a hard time accepting her offer, despite the fact that I would replace the items had I been the one who ruined them.

Would you accept the offer?

Does this resemble your situation? :D

Heck yeah you should accept, if not she could think you are holding this above her later on or using it as leverage in an argument( Or do what Adul suggested in making her pay for half). You also dont want to come across as a push over. Take her out to dinner and tell her she is a great girl for being responsible(or come up with a better reason like she has great boobs j/k.)

But if he's a Metro, he's always itching to try out some new patterns and textures. So he doesn't really even WANT to get them cleaned!

well... what's her financial situation? if you two are that close, and this is somehow going to strain her bad... then no. but that probably isn't the case... so accept it.. and if you feel guilty or something, use it to buy her something :p

LOL.

My ex GF did that years ago. I was seriously PO'd because I hate cleaning up vomit. Yuck.

And people wonder why I don't drink much at all.

Accept the offer. Then drink beer until you forget all about it. Then puke on her bedding.

No, don't let her pay for it. That is, unless you don't like her very much.

And for that matter refers to it as a duvet.....in my book that alone means you should replace your own DUVET.

What's wrong with letting her pay for it? It's very refreshing to find a person that actually chooses to pay for his/her own mistakes instead of trying to place blame on someone else. If she can't afford it, then tell her no, otherwise, let her pay since she offered. If I puked all over my girlfriend's bed, I'd be quick to pay for it.
