YAGT: She is a little presumptuous, perhaps?

I think you're taking this a little too lightly, quite honestly...she's using you, and you don't mind it. I can understand taking a girl out and paying for everything, cuz I always do, but the second she tells me when and where (with other time restrictions like your girl did), I'd laugh at her and tell her "good luck" finding another guy.

She's gotta have something going for her if you're treating this so casually...right?
 
why on earth are you calling up one girl and telling her about the other girl?

that is the dummest thing i have ever heard.

you NEVER discuss one woman with another...NEVER

you NEVER discuss previous girlfriends with your current girlfriend
you NEVER discuss previous girlfiends with your wife.

repeat after me....NEVER

it will only get you in trouble, it can never help you no matter what your brain tells you......
 
She asked you to pay and you still took her out? If she wasn't saying it humorously I would've cut my losses right there and then.

Oh nm, just reread your post. So you didn't take her out yet. I wouldn't if I were you.

Yeah, my sentiments exactly. I don't care what kind of open relationship you agreed upon for the summer, if you want to have something when you get back to school you better keep your summer activities to yourself.

As for the girl, I'd take her out just to see how she plays it but definately some place on the cheap. I mean what the hell, if you haven't got anything better lined up, doesn't hurt to scope her act for a few hours one night. Then you'll know whether or not to bother with her later or just forget about her.

Take her out this one time. If she tries to pull this again, dump her. It may have been that she already had plans, but wants to spend some time with you, too. Just don't spend too much on dinner this time around. Don't burn the bridge too quickly.

agreed. sometimes people just have other stuff to do. maybe these are parties she has to make an appearance at, but she wants to hang with you right when you get back.

SUre, sure. We can give her the benefit of the doubt there, but what is this "You'll buy me dinner" crap?

I'm with Jzero on this one man. That is just plain fvcking rude. "You'll buy me dinner" bs to that one.

You better enjoy her company man but I would definately lose this baggage.

 
stop letting her mooch off you and drop her...if you need an excuse to cause a breakup, propose that you DHITB...fight ensues, then split...if there's no fight and she gives in...well...drop her anyway....hehe...
 
That's why my gf pays her own way. Same with dates, unless the girl is poor. I need to modify that rule a bit to include the poor ones.
 
Yeah here's the way I see it: You go through the 'dutch' phase, You go through the 'treat' phase, then you get back to the 'dutch' phase again combined with 'treats' from each for special occasions. It's the fair way especially with women working in today's society...these 'the man pays' traditions were started when women actually couldn't.

However, the average woman spends a fair share of her income primping up herself so I take that into account in my spending [especially since I directly benefit from what she spends in the bedroom 😉]

hehe
 
Just remember two little letters:

E   &   I

Every single woman on this planet is (E)vil and (I)nsane. It's just that the rare ones exhibit those behaviours only on rare occasions and are, therefore, almost safe enough to enter into a relationship with them.
 
Very true conjur, I should show you the collection I have in my trunk one day. I like it when their pictures end up on milk cartons, it's like having the playing card and the collectable figure at the same time.

Seriously...there's a website, forget the name but it was linked up here at one time, where guys give each other advice on how to be jerks to better pick up women. And, a friend of a friend did an experiment once where he acted like a jerk and he had better luck in picking up women. And, I've seen it in the workplace, too. Where guys treat a couple of good-looking women like dirt and they keep coming back for more (dunno why...to try and change them? tame them?).

Women say they want someone who will listen to them, try to understand them, blah blah blah. It's all lies. Every single one of them is in it for themselves. If they perceive something better or more exciting elsewhere...zoom! Off they go. And the ones being flirty/nice? They just want you to do something for them. 2 days later you're chopped meat...at least until they need another favor or feel ignored or something.

Oh well...too much bitterness on a Father's Day. Time to go perform some more hypnosis on my daughters in the hopes of burying their E&I factor!   😀
