Would you ask your GF to replace the bedding she destroyed?

[brigden]

Last weekend, after we got back from the bar, my GF, completely inebriated, managed to vomit the contents of her stomach all over my bed. She ruined the duvet cover, stained the duvet itself, and also ruined two pillows.

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?

 

[Orsorum]

Probably not, if we were close.

u are not a real man. u have real sheets...real men have a tablecloth!

how close are you two?

if going out for a while, no

if new relationship, then yes.

just don't have her get u some pink sheets!

favors

 

If you've been together for a long time, then just tell her she owes you a nice dinner or something and replace them yourself. There's no need to start a rift over something like that. And odds are, knowing how girls operate, that if you accept her offer she'll get all pissy because she didn't really expect you to accept.

 

[brigden]

Well, I'm not rich, but I could afford to replace it myself. We are extremely close.

I wouldn't ask for money....I'd let her pay me back with on-demand sex.

It could be considered rude to NOT accept the offer, it could also be considered rude TO accept the offer.
Pretty much a no-win for you.

I might say something like, hey everyone makes mistakes and does something stupid, and I was tired of that stuff anyway, why dont we split the cost of some new stuff. Of course make her promise to show you a good time on the new stuff.

 

[Anubis]

if she offered then yes, i wouldent make her unless she offered

When I was teaching my ex how to drive, and the dumb b!tch ran the car into the curb trying to park and popped the tire, I sure as hell accepted her offer to pay for it

Well, sex on-demand isn't an issue as she's got more of a libido than I, and she's 100% sincere in her offer to replace the items. However, we are talking several hundred dollars.

Regardless of the outcome, this won't cause an argument. We never fight.

Thats sexy!

 

[cerebusPu]

yeah..i agree with sluggo. split the cost on the new stuff...and get some sex while you are trying it out.

I'm more concerned about why a supposedly heterosexual male owns a duvet worth several hundred dollars

 

[upsciLLion]

Tell her to quit being such a pansy and to hold her liquor better. :roll:

On a more serious note, have you though about having each person pay for half?

Not if ElFenix has anything to say about it!

Why not first try taking the items to be cleaned professionally? I'll bet some of it can be rescued and she can pay the bill for it.

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!

Are you sure they are ruined? You'd be surprised at what kind of stains you can get out of things when you know the right products to use.

My fiancee barfed all over my bathroom and on one of the rugs. You can bet that she bought me a new a rug and cleaned the place up in the morning. That's the penalty for missing the toilet. She was RIGHT THERE!!!!

PSA to anyone that lives in Montgomery County, PA:
The raspberry mead being brewed at the General Lafayette Inn is 9% (that's NINE percent). So what if they serve it in 8 oz glasses? It's like a Belgian Trippel except it tastes like fruit juice. Drink it like it's regular beer and you will be honking it up in an hour.
